In the summer of 2013, I spent two months in the...

...My personal philosophy toward learning is that one’s education should be well balanced. In my free time I like to read, work on visual art, and play instruments. I am most passionate about math though, because it can be related to any subject, and because the skills that are developed through mathematical thinking can help create success in other areas. I try to use multiple approaches while teaching, and present ideas as visually and tangibly...

...to meet my students where they are in their academic progress, and to work with them to set short-term and long-term goals. I prioritize working to develop logical and generalizable ways to address questions and problems, as this makes it easier to know which strategy can be used to solve them. I also work with students to learn about learning itself -- to understand the ebb and flow of knowledge acquisition and to take challenge...

If I am unfamiliar with the concept, I am always trying to at least look over some notes and figure things out on my own to help out as much as I can.
