The art of writing can do the same; it is a source of self-expression and a window into someone else's world.

These traits are some of the aspects I value the most in my discipline, and...

...I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a difficult proof.

I empower my students to seek answers on their own and develop their critical thinking skills. As a tutor, I structure my...

...me, but it also from my experience working with students. I worked in a high school as an interventionist working with small groups of students. Although, they were considered to be at the same level that did not necessarily mean that my lesson plan would work for everyone in that group. I also tutored these same students and others after school and that was often where I got to know them as students the best....

...joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these...

In my teaching, my current focus is on general chemistry (at the high school or college level) and organic chemistry, both of which were always personal favorites....
