Student engagement is key. When students are engaged and curious, they bring their best thinking...

...flexible and I enjoy meeting the student at their current level and making progress from there. When I am not tutoring I am planning/planting my garden and battling the many pests that our damp weather brings, or on a hike in the mountains with my sister.

I am a firm believer that students can become proficient in any subject, as long as they have the right support. I'm here to open up language and literature to my tutees and show them how to engage with the cultures and materials that I am so passionate about.

I have been working with children in schools, daycares, summer programs, and afterschool programs for 13 years. I hope to use my diverse experiences to foster communities of joyful and eager learners.... I believe that each student travels on their own unique path to knowledge. I believe that a teacher is a guide along these paths, walking alongside each student, supporting them where they struggle and guiding them when there is a fork in the road.

...so happens to be my passion. I learned how to play the piano when I was six and have yet to stop. Apart from academia, I attempt to go outside, but I enjoy the comfort of my own home with books and tea and blankets. But when I do leave the house, I enjoy going rock climbing, walking aimlessly through parks, and trying out new restaurants. If I had a more fuel efficient car, I...

...arts, and other areas. You get the opportunity to see the impact these people had on their time and how it changed our world. It is this fascination of history that I love passing on to students.

...think that learning is one of the greatest advantages humans have. As a prospective medical student, I know what it is like to sometimes not fully understand a concept or subject. As a student who at first struggled to learn some of the toughest material, I learned from mistakes and shortcomings how to effectively learn and understand any concept. I love to teach people how to tackle a problem, how to truly grasp an idea...

I am a senior at Chapman U studying chemistry and computer science, with hopes to get a masters in teaching at the high school level!

...is great because (with a few exceptions) there are no if, buts, or maybes. Math is a dependable, rule-following subject, and that's why I like it. Though this may seem hard to believe, I have found that writing too can really be mastered by following some pretty straight forward guidelines. From writing dense, scientific-literature heavy lab reports to history papers and even creative essays, I've applied these rules and have found with a little time...

...40 years later. Language studies have always been an integral part of me; I speak Finnish, French, some German, and Spanish. I plan on continuing to learn more; I will always be learning something new. In my spare time, I love to be active outdoors: brisk waking, hiking, kayaking, and skiing. I enjoy mostly physical activities, but I also find reading, writing, art, cooking, and baking very enjoyable. I like to sing and listen to...
