...their arms up in a "v" and scream "yes!"... or simply says "yay" in subdued, Monty Python kind-of-way. I have an undergraduate degree in computer graphics and interactive media from Pratt Institute (2003) and a master degree in electronic art from Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (2015). My favorite subjects to tutor are highschool math, C#, and python for data science. I find comfort in the structured logic of math and programming. It gives me the illusion...

...When students struggled and became disappointed and frustrated, I gave the encouragement and motivation to keep trying and taught them they could do anything they put their minds too. In time, they learned that debits and credits and management principles were not that difficult at all. That is what is extra rewarding for me as a teacher, watching the enlightenment as students understand what they feared they could not. I am looking forward to tutoring...
