For this reason, my lessons emphasize the need for the students to engage themselves in order to take what they have learned in school,...

...comprehension, and writing. I believe that every person has the capacity to learn and improve in every subject area if they embrace their unique learning style and approach new material with determination and an overall zest for learning, personal growth, and education. I have a calm, positive, and encouraging demeanor that reduces the anxiety some students feel about learning and test taking. My personal interests include: reading, creative writing, art, music, basketball, meditation, and comedy.

...the University of Pennsylvania, where I majored in Economics and Music. Outside of work (where I am a management consultant), I play hockey and piano. Since high school, I have helped fellow students with academics. At school, I was also a tutor through Penn's Tutoring Center.

...degree. I have been tutoring students for the past 6 years in both formal and informal settings. I have tutored primarily in social sciences (psychology and sociology), English (writing, editing, and literature), and biology. My tutoring style varies depending on who I am working with - for example, if someone is a learner by doing then I won't have them watch me do a practice example, instead I will give them one and have them...

...University with a degree in History and Secondary Education. Throughout my time at Rider I learned how to not only teach history within a traditional classroom setting, but how to motivate people to achieve their goals and guide them through the process. Teaching, to me, is much more than just explaining material and ensuring students understand concepts; teaching is about enabling the student to think critically and go beyond what they thought was their limits.

I believe in teaching students to learn how to think and problem-solve on their own. I use examples and analogies that students can relate to in order to help them master material. I will be attending medical school in the fall.

I believe when a subject is presented correctly, any student can develop a love for it. I...

Throughout my career, whether in the cockpit of a US Naval jet or working on strategies for an asset allocation modes, I actively use math everyday. My love of math is profound and my three Honor Roll children are shining examples. I have formally and informally tutored hundreds of pupils for 35+ years and believe that students need to understand concepts rather than memorize them.

...being a finance major. I decided that instead of teaching/tutoring, I should work for corporate America, and I worked at Goldman Sachs for 3 years.

And that is my true teaching method, real world with a combination of academic topics, which help my...
