It is my hope that I can use my background...

...also completed a study abroad to Paris, France. While working as a tutor, I have learned two things specifically that improve the learning environment. The first is that each individual possesses a unique style of learning. It is important that I understand that style of learning so that real growth can be accomplished. The second is that teaching and learning are not two separate activities. As a student teaches principles they are learning they are...

...am the philosophical type of student-motivator, which to me means that I place the highest value in transforming difficult concepts into simpler, understandable processes. It is my desire to evoke a detailed, precise, imaginative explanation, opening up our minds in the session to true learning... not just the easy facts you'd attain for free a Google search away. After sessions I've had previously, students find the hardcore memorization much easier to handle, and importantly, relatable...

Ever since bringing refugee children up to and beyond grade-level mathematics while tutoring in the mid-2000s, I have always been motivated by a spirit of service to community, society, and humanity at large. Teaching and tutoring is one small but essential part of that ethos.

...in a field called Geometric Function Theory. Although it wasn't required for my studies, I learned the Finnish language while I was there. Finland is a wonderful country, and I will always cherish my time spent and the people I met there.

...a high school teacher for 20 years and why I am a tutor now. One of my major skills as a tutor is breaking down skills and concepts into small parts to identify exactly where someone is struggling.

I am a current civil engineering graduate at Stony Brook University. I enjoy helping students in my free time, especially those with interests associated with STEM, to understand the material they are learning in their academics. I am also a current tunnel engineering intern for Mott MacDonald, and am in the process of obtaining my EIT, as I passed my FE - Civil Exam in the fall of 2022!

I enjoy helping people reach their potential. If you're struggling in a class, there's probably a good reason. It may take some work, but I'm confident that I can help you succeed.

Getting to this strategy, however, is different for every individual-- it is not something you can simply google or watch a tutorial for. It takes time and effort. I put a high-emphasis in developing this strategy in my students, and love to watch them master it.

This is only possible through connecting (beyond our relationship as tutor-tutee) with my students, where they can lean on me as a friend for advice or to talk about their day. I believe we achieve the most as a team when students look forward to meeting with me, even when we'll be...
