My strongest subjects...

...tutoring focuses on exploring ideas and problem solving strategies until they become intuitive. I believe that intuition is the key to long term command of a subject. A difficult problem becomes far more digestible when viewed from a new angle. Once an idea makes sense at its core, it is far easier to learn its nuances and develop strong habits for applying it in the future. In my free time, I enjoy acting, playing music,...
