...Sciences from the United States Military Academy. I was accepted in the Pi Mu Epsilon National Honorary Mathematics Society New York Alpha Zeta Chapter while in college.

...style, it varies from student to student. I gauge what works and does not work when it comes to teaching techniques and tailor my approach to best help my student learn. Additionally, I've seen that asking questions and guiding my students to the answer helps them retain more information than simply telling them what the correct answer is at the start. Overall, my goal with each student is to have them understand the concepts of...

...grammar rules. I believe more points can be won/lost based on the process that a student uses to answer questions. How many times have you looked at the answers to a question you got wrong on a test and realized that you knew how to find the answer you just made a simple mistake. I can help you make less of those mistakes, and that is where the most significant short term growth can be...

I have helped all three of my siblings with their math homework, as well as tutored math in high school. I teach snowboarding to elementary age kids in the winter, and in the summer, I assist at a science camp for the same age group. I love helping out and bringing more people into the STEM classes. ... I want...

...dots, enabling them to master the material and themselves as they improve their study skills and self-confidence. I have worked with students of all ages in a variety of subjects and settings, from all backgrounds in this country and others. I have found, consistently, that the best way to connect is to be genuine and sincere with enthusiasm for the material and compassionate consideration for the learner. It is a pleasure to meet you :-)

...things. I believe my job as a tutor is to investigate what is going on that may be causing the student to not move forward and then to find a new way of looking at it instead of just regurgitating what was done at school and assuming it will work. You can be sure that I will work hard to find solutions for the child so that they can increase their confidence and grow.... My philosophy...

...understand this to be successful. I also currently tutor a sixth grader in time management, organizational skills and adjusting to more difficult topics in school. In June, I hope to be starting graduate school to get my Master's degree in teaching math and science. With this, I plan to teach high school science, specifically biology. In my free time, I love running, working out, skiing, hiking, playing with my dog and hanging out with friends...

...and applying mathematical methods to the real world, in particular through the study of physics. One of my greatest strengths in this regard is my ability to approach a problem from multiple angles. If the first approach I suggest for a problem isn't clear to a student, I can usually come up with an alternate, sometimes more intuitive way of addressing the same problem. Recreationally, I spend a significant fraction of my time developing my...
