...science, as well as number theory (largely the study of prime numbers). I've taught courses ranging from basic arithmetic up through linear algebra and multivariable calculus. The second most exciting thing about mathematics is that moment when something totally opaque and confusing suddenly solidifies into crystal clarity. It's the sort of moment that makes you shout "aha!" or "eureka!". The most exciting thing about mathematics is sharing that experience with someone else.... All too often, I...

...diverse backgrounds. I believe everyone has the potential to learn well when they are presented the right method.

...students facing the same coursework that has prepared me to succeed in college, internships, and the work force. Because everyone learns differently, I believe one on one tutoring is an extremely powerful educational resource for a student that is struggling or hoping to get ahead. I would begin a tutoring session with a few sample subject questions to determine the students strengths, and then I would get right to work connecting the material with real...

I am a recent graduate of Pacific University with a major in Biology and a minor in French. I've tutored throughout high school and college.

...Education, also from PSU. This 2017-2018 school year will be my first year of teaching, and I am very excited to begin my career as an educator. I came into this field because I believe that my strength is my ability to present and explain math in a way that's easy to grasp and appreciate. Anybody can copy and paste the formulas onto the blackboard or screen, but not everybody can take a seemingly complicated...

This period of introspection made it clear that I should seek to be the best person I possibly can, and that I should use my talents to their fullest. While my personal goal is to become a professional programmer, I am also passionate about teaching. During...

Mathematics is the key science to understand many sciences. It helps you be a critical thinker and challenges your mind.... I do my best to make the math concepts as simple as possible.... I have to know what level my student is at so I can design my plan specifically for him/her.... I explain all concepts and provide enough examples. I assign exercises to my students to solve. I provide them with their detailed key answers...

My goal is to get my students to the point where they no longer need me. I like to focus on the underlying concepts so that students can apply what we learn in our sessions to problems they haven't seen before. After our sessions, my students should be able to have a concrete plan when attempting a new problem and be able to extrapolate their knowledge of concepts to master the details.... Concepts first, details later....
