...out with group work during class and holding my own weekly office hours. I loved not only teaching students how to solve problems, but also empowering them to get over the same hurdles I struggled with myself when I took those same courses my freshman year.

I was a tutor in high school when I tutored fellow high school students who were falling behind. Being a great tutor is about listening to and understanding the tutee. Beyond a thorough understanding of the concepts being taught, a great tutor must be able to connect with the person they are teaching in order to best convey the concepts in a way the student will understand.

Combining enthusiasm with optimism always brings about positive outcomes! I'm thrilled to embark on this journey with all of you and make it truly enjoyable!

Every person learns and engages differently, and it is crucial that a tutor be aware of, attuned to and prepared for those differences. I believe that tutoring is about growing minds and forging connections and I believe...

I truly began to appreciate this after interacting with my own pediatrician, who had built her own clinic from the ground-up using her knowledge, the power of education, and the strength of connection. Concerned parents entered the visiting room with coughing and crying parents and emerged with their worries assuaged and feeling more empowered knowing how to take care of their child. This considered, it is vital for every...

I do not focus on only the problem at hand, instead I focus on all aspects that could be derived from such a problem and thus give my students a broad understanding of the topic at hand. My students have...
