After graduating, I spent a year working at the Harlem Children's Zone as a math tutor where I worked with students from kindergarten to eighth grade.

I have had many students...

...they would not need a tutor. I always encourage them to solve a problem on their own and give them as little help as possible. I try to show my students that with a bit of diligence and patience any problem could be solved.

...struggling in a subject; they simply need ideas to be conveyed in terms that they can understand. In a classroom setting, it is very difficult for a teacher to communicate subject material in a way that the entire class can understand.
