...it was a challenge determining exactly where a student's understanding of a topic was faulty. Over time, however, I developed a keener sense for the hurdles that students sometimes face when learning, as well as the most efficient ways to overcome them.

...to tutoring focuses on exploring ideas and problem solving strategies until they become intuitive. I believe that intuition is the key to long term command of a subject. A difficult problem becomes far more digestible when viewed from a new angle. Once an idea makes sense at its core, it is far easier to learn its nuances and develop strong habits for applying it in the future. In my free time, I enjoy acting, playing...

...all about the "design thinking" framework 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.
