I can show students how to effectively use organizational and online study tools/resources that have been proven helpful in my academic career. These include the Anki flashcard system,...

...Utah with a bachelors degree in math, and I spent the majority of my four years there working in the math tutoring center. I loved being able to work one-on-one with students and see their growth as they started to understand the material.
