...principles. In addition, I feel that I pay great attention to my students so that I can quickly identify when there is a lack of understanding and can adapt my explanation with additional examples until I am confident that the student fully understands the topic. My experience tutoring Math and Chemistry includes working with students of all ages from elementary to graduate level. In my opinion, confidence is key when learning a new subject. Im...

...center around problem solving, such as Chemistry and Physics, is to go over a variety of example problems and learn all the different methods to solving such problems. For subjects with more abstract concepts, such as Biology, Biochemistry, and other Life Science topics, my emphasis shifts towards understanding the broader picture. Outside of academia I spend a lot of time rock climbing, backpacking and doing whatever it takes to just be outdoors.

I like to meet my students where they are at, to help them engage with material through vibrant discussion as they set their goals and their pace; we can troubleshoot together to discover what learning methods work best (teach-back, kinetic, visual, mnemonics and songs, etc). I enjoy teaching math topics up through and including...

...and values are why I am a versatile and effective academic support agent: >I can easily connect ideas and patterns across many disciplines >the way I have learned to contextualize new content to be more personally relevant (more effective memory consolidation) can be used as a frame of reference in assisting other's make personally relevant connections >ability to access creative and abstract methods of problem solving >most importantly my belief that there is no 'one-size-fits-all'...

...evidence, problem solve using diagrams, and finally, study using a strategy. When any deficiencies have been addressed within the subject area, then the student becomes capable of understanding new concepts and then continuing successful progress on their own. As a tutor, I will make every effort to identify the student's deficiencies that need to be strengthened while maintaining an understanding of current concepts are approached. I look forward to assisting you in your academic achievements.
