Jack: Rockville tutor

Certified Tutor

I graduated from the University of Wisconsin-Madison in 2010 with a Bachelors of Science in Zoology. I began tutoring middle school students while attending college and have continued to tutor middle and high school students since graduating. I have a passion for math and science as well as a particular interest in reading and writing. I really enjoy tutoring and the unique sense of accomplishment that can be shared with a student while working through a problem and developing a stronger understanding for the subject matter at hand. Teaching runs in my family and my parents and older sister have instilled in me a desire to work in education and share my enthusiasm for learning with others. In my experience, each student has a slightly different learning style, so I always try to patiently employ any number of different tutoring strategies to create a personalized learning experience. Outside of the tutoring world, I am an avid runner currently in training preparation for the U.S. Olympic Trials for Track and Field next summer. I have a curiosity for the world around me and have traveled extensively over the years. I also love to play basketball and Frisbee and appreciate the peace that comes from getting involved in a good book.
