...throughout and after college. I now operate my own tutoring company Expert Instruction LLC. The primary goal of my tutoring service is to help students develop a growth mindset and enjoy the process of learning. I provide one-on-one instruction for all levels of math up to and including calculus, French language and standardized exams such as SAT, ACT, and GRE. It would be my pleasure to help more students as a Varsity Tutor.... My teaching philosophy is that conceptual understanding and practice make perfect. My goal as a tutor is to first make sure that the student grasps the basic concept at hand and then move onto routine practice to help internalize the solution strategies. I believe that all students are capable of making progress. My one-on-one instruction method is tailored for students as individuals. That being said, tutoring sessions are targeted to strengthen students' unique weaknesses and to build upon their individual talents.
