While I tutor a wide range of subjects, I am most passionate about standardized test prep, math (all levels), writing, and economics.

I have a friendly, easy-going, flexible and direct teaching style. I always try to make...

...the terminal degree of a PhD in Physiology (Neuroscience, Diabetes, Obesity). In this regard, I hold dearly the teaching philosophy that a teacher has to excel in three main domains, specifically that of an instructor, a mentor, and a professional. To enhance the educational experience of students, a teacher in the biological sciences has to possess an exceptional skill in creating the appropriate course sequence to teach complex concepts to students from diverse scientific areas....

I look for opportunities to build strong basis of students in a particular concept in a straight forward and not confusing way. I like to help them understand a new concept and with everyday homework problems.

I have long enjoyed enjoyed working with others to help them achieve personal goals. Some of the most fulfilling tutoring I have done recently have been tutoring immigrants for the US Citizenship Test, helping formerly incarcerated individuals attain their GEDs, and tutoring children in Honduras on conversational English to obtain high-paying jobs in the tourism industry. I'm thrilled to work with anybody on any subjects of interest, reach out with any questions!

I prioritize working to develop logical and generalizable ways to address questions and problems, as this makes it easier to know which strategy can be used to solve them. I also work with students to learn about learning itself -- to understand the ebb and flow of knowledge acquisition and to...

...interacting with students are all important parts of my teaching. My objectives as a statistics educator are: (1) to teach students about statistical tools and how to use them correctly, (2) to expose students to the structure of statistical analysis, and (3) to teach students how to communicate statistical results and concepts to a variety of audiences. These objectives apply to all courses I teach, at varying degrees of emphasis depending on its level.

...more academic and professional opportunities in Nashville. I started private tutoring in the summer of 2021. While I am comfortable tutoring a broad range of topics, I am most passionate about computer science as it is my own area of study, and I believe that basic literacy in programming languages is beneficial to many careers even outside of the realm of software. In my spare time, I enjoy listening to music, trying new restaurants, and...

I loved my job and I hope I can continue tutoring in my future...

In Calculus, we learn the sophistication of the exponential function and how its value at a point is also its slope, and how we can use this to our advantage in differential equations. My lifelong love of mathematics, as well as...
