...time to first get to know an individual and then using his or her interests along with research based learning techniques to make for a productive learning experience that is fun and engaging too. This also means being flexible and figuring out the best learning practice for each individual, as everyone learns in different ways. A little bit about me.

While some may view teaching as a "job," I personally see it as a way to express my passion. In other words, I don't see teaching as a simple career but rather a way of life that I cannot do without. Therefore, I for one employ the opportunity to...

...in math or math-intensive science material- they've somehow managed to convince themselves that they are just incapable of "getting it". Personally, I think this is a tragic side-effect of the dry, abstract and robotic language employed by their textbooks and, presumably, the majority of their teachers. But the truth is, there are infinitely many ways to explain any given mathematical concept. And for any given student, there must be some perfect analogy or parallel to...

Additionally, I am really good at helping students make connections between two seemingly unrelated topics....

...natural passion for teaching. I had a wonderful outcome with both students and was yet again reminded that you learn the most about a subject through teaching it, even areas you already have a strong competence and knowledge in. I work a lot through interdisciplinary methods, visual learning and storytelling, and try as much as I can to incorporate other senses and games into the learning process where appropriate. I have great fun teaching and...
