Math and philosophy, and their nuanced interactions, are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a difficult proof. I'm a scholar of the...

...experience in private, non-essential education (teaching with Education First in Quito, Ecuador). While I very much enjoy classroom teaching, the one-to-one or small-group teaching I did with Education First is something that I found to be most rewarding. Really being able to form close relationships with a small number of students and helping them grow was amazing. I aim to build these types of relationships and connections with students on their paths' to success.

Certified Test Prep Tutor in Smithtown, NY
I believe that all students should be given the opportunities they deserve to advance in their education ... All students have the potential to learn; they need only find the right method.... Discuss their interests, what motivates them, and their goals. What do they want to get out of tutoring?... Guide them through questions without telling them the answer, gradually removing supports with each practice until they are able to complete the task on their own.
