I am a great tutor because helping a student reach their own 'Aha!' moment is constantly one of my proudest accomplishments. I love teaching, and I am adept at understanding where a student's strengths and weaknesses lie. I am patient with students who have a hard time concentrating.

...and Sociology and graduate with an Elementary Teaching Credential. I have the most experience teaching Math and English to elementary and middle school students. I have also worked as a peer Math tutor for high school students, and have experience with standardized tests including PSAT, SAT, IB, and AP.

Through school I always excelled at math, research and essay writing. I was in academic honors programs starting in high school and continuing through college.

...(ancient through modern) and US History (I admit that political history between 1820 and 1850 is not my favorite subject, but I know it!). I speak four languages beyond English, in varying degrees (French, German, Arabic, Hebrew). My graduate training in History focused on Middle Eastern History and Cold War History (especially the nuclear arms race); in college, I minored in History, primarily the History of Europe between the Dark Ages and the Renaissance. I...

...in the country allowed me to develop a handful of studying, writing, and thinking skills that I try to teach to every student. I believe that all subjects that I teach can be exciting and fun, and it is the job of the teacher to approach the subject in the right way for the student to appreciate the subject. This is not to say, however, that I don't have expectations. In fact, I believe that...

...be achieved by being balanced and settled emotionally. If you're scared of Algebra or stats or economics or the LSAT, it is going to be very difficult to learn. So, a great deal of my style has to do with breaking down the various perceptions and fears that can get in the way of us learning.
