...of different disciplines of math and physics. Everyone learns differently and traditional environments are not always ideal for all students. My approach is to identify a students strengths. Furthermore, I like to find out what a students current understanding of a topic is and expand upon the topic from this point. Outside of school I enjoy camping, backpacking, outdoors, concerts, comedy, and when not in Florida and back home, snowboarding.

...is one of the most satisfying things in life. My particular methods for tutoring revolve around tailoring my guidance and explanations to the student's learning style. If I know the solution to the problem at a glance, I will not simply demonstrate the solution. If the solution isn't so obvious (perhaps a tricky word problem), we'll work through it together. Either way, I think it's essential for the student to understand the concepts behind the...
