...Cornell. During grad school, I was a teaching assistant for a molecular biology course for undergraduate and post-baccalaureate students, which helped me to find my strengths in teaching and tutoring: rather than seeking to 'teach to the top of the class', I find analogies, visual representations, and other angles from which to approach a concept until all my students understand a given concept. I look forward to helping students discover the principles of my chosen...

It brings me great joy and fulfillment to witness progress and a growing confidence in students. I...

As a tutor, my goal is of course to help you maximize your success in school and standardized tests. But it's also (again, hopefully)...

I will help you achieve your academic goals through a comprehensive...

I have always enjoyed helping people learn how to do difficult problems in ways that make sense to them - not the way the book describes it. Almost everything that we learn is pretty easy when you boil it down, the real problem is that not everyone learns the way that the book or the teacher teaches...
