I'm an Aerospace Engineer who got my Masters from University of South Carolina. I've been teaching in classrooms and online for about 6 years now. I've taught a variety of subjects but mostly relating to Math, Science or English. I am very patient and I take time to make sure every student understands the basics very well. I've taught kids from 4 year olds to college students. So I know how to change my teaching...

...writing, with a special emphasis in Philosophy on clarity. These are values I have internalized, and I believe my work reflects that: for instance, in 2014, my GRE Verbal Reasoning scores placed me in the top 1% of test-takers.

When I'm not teaching students or sitting...
