My lifelong love of mathematics, as well as many students' dismal outlook on mathematics, in conjunction with the gracefulness of mathematics...

...trick is unlocking what that is in a safe and nurturing environment. We learn through doing, through mistakes, through trying things a few different ways. Conventional teaching methods don't always allow this level of individualization. We learn and remember the most when we're actively engaged, enjoying what we're learning, having fun, and making meaningful connections. Learning is not simply memorization, it is being firmly rooted in the knowledge where you yourself could explain it to...

I am currently a researcher and hope to get my PhD in physics. I tutor math...

...students. I may ask them more questions than they ask me. I do this in order to determine where any fundamental misunderstandings exist. I find that in most instances, confused students are unclear on one or two simple, yet important ideas. Clearing these up, and deliberately following their implications, can make students have a much better level of understanding while also feeling confident in their knowledge. This processes defines my style of teaching.
