...to a teacher and working with students one-on-one. I tutor American history and AP US history, as well as any intro-level law school courses. My tutoring style depends upon the student's learning style and needs. I believe the best results come from a student-specific plan. During the first session, I find it important to talk with my students about their goals and then tailor my approach to meet their needs. When not tutoring, I enjoy...

...complex as they were originally thinking. I emphasize showing the rules of math. So often students get confused on certain concepts because they have learned some type of shortcut in the past, which does not apply with all cases. However, if the students just know the rules, they can apply their knowledge with any given problem. The rules will never change; the only thing that changes are the numbers. My tutoring work also helps me...

...rather than the letters of a differential equation. However, my interest in studying the natural world has caused me to suffer through more math classes than I care to count. As a result, I am well-equipped to help 'math-shy' students understand, appreciate, and flourish in a subject that they may have previously disliked. I believe in forging a relationship between the student and the subject matter with the idea being able to answer the question...

...managed to earn high grades every year, but there were several moments of self-doubt and fear of being perceived as incompetent for asking for help. As I began tutoring during my undergraduate studies, I realized that those negative thoughts were silly and there is no shame in seeking help when you don’t have the answers. When I work with students, I do my best to build their confidence in the subject area through practice and...

...My tutoring style is focused but understanding and very patient. I really take the time to make sure the student understands what he/she is working on.

I am a proud Native Texan but also love learning about people from different walks of life and other cultures.

...why 1+1=2, why x*y=z or why "knock" only has one 'k' sound. Kids have a lot going on in their academic and personal lives, so I take time to talk to my students, take a few steps back from the problem and understand how they're tackling the problem. I've found that this conversation facilitates my understanding of how the student learns, and lends to their deeper understanding of concepts to apply to future, independent problem...

...students needs. I will explain the same concept in three different ways, always striving to connect the new information to established knowledge. If singing a song or building a Lego model or standing on my head will help make that connection, I will gleefully dive into untraditional methods to make an impact on a student. Across maths and sciences, I aim to have my students understand the WHY behind a process, not just the HOW,...

I love working with young minds who have the potential to exceed expectations.... Teach to the student,...

...be correct with concrete evidence. I am a very patient person and won't give up on my students because I know that everyone is capable of solving the problems they are given. It is a matter of how the students will learn it and I believe that if the students don't understand a problem, I am not doing a good enough job and will constantly adjust my teaching style until my student masters their subjects....

...eclectic as they come. Although I could never commit to any of the traditional disciplines, my exploration revealed a talent and an ardent passion for a topic that is largely overlooked. Learning how to learn is my one true passion. During my sophomore year I realized that if I wanted to "taste" each of the traditional disciplines in a small window of time then I would have to learn how to absorb, process, and apply...
