...from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. While I was there, I tutored middle school-, high school-, and college-aged students in everything from Algebra I through Differential Equations. The main thing I love about tutoring and teaching mathematics is providing students with a foundation to discover the various principles on their own (rather than rote memorization of "if you see this, do that") and them realizing the joy and fun in that discovery.
