If you understand WHY you need to learn something, you have an incentive to learn it....

...range of tutoring experiences in many subjects, but my strengths lie in mathematics, science, and ACT test prep areas. Having struggled myself the first time I took standardized tests, I understand that even with a solid knowledge foundation tests like the ACT require a substantial amount of exam specific preparation.

...to overcome obstacles. I teach to the test. I believe test taking skills can improve scores more quickly than expanding a knowledge base, but it can only take you so far.

I'm a recent University of Washington graduate, with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics. I love teaching, and have a special passion for math. I believe that everyone can understand and learn to use math. They just need to be paired with the right teachers from early on. There are no "stupid questions" to me, so ask me anything!
