Being able to help someone along to their "a-ha!" moment and share in that experience has been one of the greatest joys of teaching.

While I tutor a wide range of topics in mathematics (everything from elementary school math to what would typically be taken by an undergraduate math major), I enjoy them all because of how much I learn while figuring out how best to explain a new concept to a student.

With the help from Touro and their education program, I...
