...really fun part was using the Lego Mindstorm kits to form a robotics club, and teaching a few students to program in C. I also formed my own college admissions and career mentoring service in high school. I believe learning is a highly personal and even spiritual endeavor, and approaching it with the right attitude is essential to really learning. As a professor of mine often said, "You've got to feel it in your bones!"...

...I graduated from Cornell University with a B.S. in Human Development and a minor in Business. I am very passionate about working with children and helping them find new techniques to tackle their difficulties with certain subjects. My favorite subject is Math.

...an unconventional (but effective) way to approach a subject can instill that motivation on its own, giving the student the desire to move forward for him- or herself. Even though I spend a lot of time reading and writing in my own studies, I particularly enjoy doing so outside of them as well, reading different types of fiction (especially historical fiction) and other topics that interest me. I also love to play video games in...

This philosophy -- along with advocating for consistent effort over time -- has allowed me the privilege of having a real impact on my students encompassing positive outcomes such as full-ride scholarships to Ivy League colleges, winning Gates Millennium scholarships, and winning admittance to colleges and majors such as business and nursing straight out of GED programs. I'm fully confident that I can...

...do things that aren't necessarily academic. For some reason I was obsessed with making sure all my brothers new how to tie their shoes by time they were three. One of the most important things I have learned from teaching children how to learn is that patience and humor reign supreme. Thankfully I have developed enough patience to sit in the DMV without complaining and enough humor to keep kids interested in things I say.

Whether working on academic, extracurricular, or professional projects, I apply proven communication, writing and multitasking skills, which I hope to leverage...

In my free time, I love surrounding myself with books and scraps of paper with inky pens, but when I do escape from between the pages I swim and play volleyball. I'm also fluent in Russian.... I like to break...

...and am adamant about its importance. I tutored fourth through sixth grade kids in Math and Reading when I was in high school. During this time I found it came naturally to me to break down subjects that were troublesome for students, and I truly enjoyed watching them improve and grow. I am excited for the opportunity to not only revisit this passion of mine, but expand it to different fields and a range of...
