I show my students how to break...

...subjects, such as math, are often difficult for students to grasp at first, making the prospect of learning intimidating. However, given the right amount of hard work together and patients, I believe that there is not any difficult subject that cannot be surmounted. The most rewarding aspect of teaching is helping a student reach an "ah ha!" moment in a subject they previously thought impossible to comprehend. In my experience teaching psychology and statistics courses,...
