...for creative problem solving pioneered by the international design firm IDEO. While typically used in startups to develop new innovations, I've found it extremely handy in tutoring. Every student is different and so are their difficulties, so a finite set of ways to present a concept or tackle a difficulty is potentially limiting. In my experience, it's much more effective to use an adaptive framework like design thinking to identify the root of students' issues...

...scienceall knowledgeis 'one'. Of all investments, education in yourself is the most valuable. The more you know, the more your intellectual horizons expand and the more opportunities will open. Not just to produce material wealth, but life satisfaction. Not all study is drudgery. When work is done for the day, play can be better with the same knowledge. The computer skills I've acquired have become indispensable to my hobbies: aviation history and modeling.

...have written in MATLAB. When leading a tutoring session, I like to go through problems methodically, and break them down into their simplest components and concepts before explaining the full solution. I find that this way, complex concepts in calculus and physics become easier to remember, when they are grounded in simple principles. I love to draw attention to the way that complex subjects such as physics and calculus are ultimately reducible into simple and...
