...the last half hour of each session. I ask a few questions to confirm that they understand what we are going over, but for the most part, my hope is for them to propose and answer their own questions.

To guide...

...became a tutor to meet new people and create an encouraging learning environment that has been so essential in my own education. I know that each person learns differently and I have worked with all types of students to find what resources/ teaching styles they need to learn best. When I'm not tutoring, I have lots of hobbies. I run, read, write, dance, cook, sing (poorly), and visit the zoo. The rest of my time...

...specializing in math, writing, and science subjects. Being a student myself, I understand the importance of and at times, difficulty, in finding effective studying strategies.
