...a subject, and I know what kind of assistance is helpful (and what kind of assistance/teaching is not). I think this--empathizing with a student and knowing the difference between good and bad help--is the most important quality of a good tutor. And just as importantly, I will work hard to tailor each tutoring session to...

...helped fellow students with academics. At school, I was also a tutor through Penn's Tutoring Center. I think what makes me a successful tutor is the ability to not only understand the material but also the perspective of the tutee. This helps me convey necessary information in the best way possible for that particular student.

...in neuroscience. At the University, I'm usually in class, studying, hanging out with my friends, or at club meetings!

...passion to teach mathematics. Mathematics far and away earns the title of "Scariest Subject" by students every year. It starts when you are 5 and just cumulates and cumulates and just doesn't stop, making any misunderstanding over the course of 13 years devastating. As a tutor, I back-track through any and all previous years to...

...Harvard Summer Debate Camp Workshop, and have worked with high school students across the country, teaching them about current politics, economics, philosophy, and international relations.

Through my professional and undergraduate education, I am intensely familiar...

After graduating from Skidmore College, I moved to Milan, Italy and taught English to high school and university students. I also gave private lessons to students ages 7-31.
