...in his Living Environment regents. Jared had been doing poorly in his classes and he was worried that he would not pass his Living Environment Regents. At first, it was hard to make Jared motivated; every time he got a wrong answer, he would become discouraged.

...believe that almost everything in this world comes down to how we were taught. It took me years to learn to swim. I got the stroke patterns down early but it wasn't until someone told me to exhale all the way through not just into the water but as my face is leaving the water that I really got it. The same applies to learning in school: one key idea or concept can make all...

...subjects with great clarity and focus as well. The one thing I stress to every student is that to completely comprehend subjects, one should not just memorize the steps to do the problems but rather embrace the concepts to learn the material inside out. As leisure, I watch a few T.V. shows that interest me and play video games. However, I mainly play sports such as basketball and volleyball and I’m very passionate about both...

...creative platform. Through networking with mentors and advisors I have been able to direct, produce, and edit my own visual and audio works digitally. I've had several articles and radio pieces published in the university's newspaper. These experiences have assisted me in honing my communication and leadership skills.

...tutoring, I tend to follow an inquiry-based model wherein students are consistently questioned throughout the tutoring process. While providing the students with meaningful resources that are tailored to their specific needs and learning styles, I attempt to create connections between the content, process, and student. Because students tend to struggle in mathematics and science, I enjoy making these concepts transparent, fun, easy to understand and remember. When I am not teaching or tutoring, I enjoy...
