...have seen students put themselves down and give up on learning. Sometimes they believe that when they didn't understand something fast enough, that maybe they just can't do it. This is never the case. There are many ways of approaching new knowledge and new skills, and students can very quickly begin to see how their own learning process works. One of the things I enjoy doing with my students is helping them to gain insight...

I've been told, many times, that I have a natural gift for teaching. Throughout my schooling and my professional career I've been called on to make the complexities of any subject more accessible to my fellows.

...learn, we just need to work together to find out what works for you. Learning is not just observation, it is also participation. By engaging students in interactive discussions, I encourage curiosity and intellectual exploration. I help students learn how to think not what to think.

...it isn't perfect. People learn in different ways, and sitting in a classroom isn't always going to allow for optimal learning conditions. That's where I come in.

...I know everybody learns differently and I love figuring out which teaching styles work best for each student. Psychology involves many theories and abstract concepts so I find it helpful to provide real world examples that can help my students really understand. Personally, I learn best when I can receive the information from multiple sources. So when I teach, I like to do the same, taking material from textbooks, power points, silly videos, or even...

...I have helped multiple classmates, friends, acquaintances, and family members in almost every subject. I now tutor people in math, chemistry, and anatomy. Math, however, is my favorite subject to tutor. There is nothing more rewarding than helping someone finally realize the difference between sine and cosine or finish a homework problem that has trapped them for hours. I tutor in a style of patience and confidence building. I firmly believe that with enough practice...
