...the sugarcane fields of the Dominican Republic, teaching English and basic public health initiatives to children and adults alike who often didn't even know how to read and write their own name.

It is my mission as a teacher to provide...

...change from the political theory I studied at Whitman. At Montana State University, where I took my prerequisites, I served as a peer instructor for physics classes.

Whenever it’s sunny and warm enough, my free time is spent rock climbing; I also volunteer...

...teaching the individual. To me, this means learning who the student is both inside and outside of the learning environment. Everyone learns differently, but people learn more quickly when the information is presented in a manner that is relevant to their lives. Learning a student's interests allows me to customize a specific curriculum to meet their individual needs. I have also tutored and taught, both honors as well as the exceptional student populations, in elementary,...

I believe we all need computer help to get our work done, whatever that might be. Beyond that, I believe in a liberal education. The U.W.'s approach made all students, in all majors, take a wide variety of courses. Exactly as intended, this liberal education...

...key to learning anything is understanding how the subject matter fits into the larger picture of your life. If you understand WHY you need to learn something, you have an incentive to learn it. I've tutored middle school, high school, and college freshmen and sophomores and occasionally get a phone call from one of my younger sisters asking for help editing an essay or solving a math problem. In my spare time I am outside:...
