...a mathematics professor. I love mathematics but more so I enjoy helping others see the value of math and how it connects to other areas of their lives. We don't all learn the same and while I love science and exploration fields, I struggled in school with reading comprehension. Learning to overcome my reading comprehension...

...helping! I find it really important to meet people where they are at, so regardless of how long I will be with a student, I make it a priority to get to know them and their individual learning styles.

For example, I have taught topics in STEM to students K-5 through the Boys & Girls Club and the STEM Cubs program. I've always found that making learning fun and interactive helps...

...many steps involved in the problems within both subjects, but once one understands these steps, they can solve any problem. My tutoring style involves working on practice problems based on your homework together so that you can try the homework problems on your own. If you have trouble understanding one approach, then I'll try to...

...students through my high school and undergraduate careers. In addition, I have been a teaching assistant for multiple chemistry and biology-related undergraduate courses at Washington University. These experiences have taught me the importance using different teaching styles to accommodate a student learning style and strengths. I am excite and look forward to helping new students...

...that I wasn't given. I've found that one of the best ways to introduce students to a new subject or idea is through motivating examples or real world problems. I prefer not to give students the answer, but gently lead them to it, so that in the end they gain some satisfaction in reaching the...

...to tutor others. For example, I have taken the time to learn calculus and spent a lot of time with computer science, even though neither are directly related to my desired career path. However, my personal favorite subjects to tutor are those that align with the social sciences, such as psychology, sociology, and economics. I...

...and physics as subjects and find enjoyment in bringing that same enjoyment and understanding to aspiring students. I believe the best approach to helping a student is to understand their goals.

...the GRE. Requiring more than just a knowledge of subject matter, the GRE necessitates strategy and time management. To a point, time management and strategy are more important than just understanding the definition of the word 'matriculated' that I threw in at the beginning of this statement. Knowing when and where to take shortcuts can...

...ages, I was able to acquire the strategies and methods to teach math as every student learn differently.
