My name is Nick and I have recently graduated college with a mathematics degree. Math was my favorite subject in school and that is also why I am a math teacher as well. I enjoy trying to relate things in math to being outside or with sports. Doing math just in general can be boring for students so I try to make things a bit more fun and it really helps my students in school.

...and 13 but I am comfortable working with students of all ages. I tutor in almost all subjects, but my favorites are Math, English, Psychology and Study and Organizational skills.

My background is in engineering, and as such, I am very strong in math. I have also tutored for 3 years in SAT prep.... My teaching philosophy is basic. I want to ensure that the student understands the basics. Problem solving is simply breaking a problem down into solvable pieces. The portfolio of basics that the student has mastered will enable a more efficient, effective problem solution. As a nuclear engineer and also as a petroleum engineer, I have been able to solve some complex problems. I attribute most of my problem-solving capability to an understanding of the basics in those disciplines.

With an interest in global politics and a background in international affairs, I hope to one day teach English abroad, but before then I intend to bring my love of learning and teaching to students in any number of subjects, especially when it involves reading and writing.

...a result, I want to help other students gain an appreciation for this extremely useful discipline. This being said, I understand there is no "one size fits all" approach to learning, especially for math. Therefore, I approach each job as a problem solving opportunity where the end goal is for me to find the best teaching method for each student to succeed. I look forward to meeting you and getting started!
