...GPA in my class. I discovered my particular interest in history as an undergraduate student, however I have a real passion for all of the humanities, such as literature, philosophy, theology, and political science. I have tutored a variety of ages and subjects, ranging from third grade math to college level languages.

...with definitions and theorems and sent off to apply them alone. I understand that not everyone can read math and sometimes need to see math in use in order to understand a concept well. I'm all about learning, rather than memorizing. Math builds on itself so if a concept is simply memorized, the student will have trouble again. My way of teaching is solidifying the basics before advancing, rather than rushing through topics.

I have been in the education field for over 15 years. I love assisting others of all ages in exploring and expanding their learning capacity, which in turn, enriches the quality of their lives. My biggest joy as a teacher is seeing someone come to a full understanding of a concept they could not grasp before. Helping the learner reach those "a-ha" moments is what a teacher does!

...principle, and am a big fan of efficiency, not just in technologies, but in our understanding and use of them. Over time, that has made me an efficient mentor, able to explain and expand understanding of questions without creating overreaching or false simplifications. Over the years, I've held several mentoring roles - as a senior research student, a laboratory engineer in charge of actually training newcomers, and now as a senior design mentor - and...

As a student, I have learned from amazing professors at both UTSA and UT Austin and have earned...

...language arts and writing skills are needed to succeed today in college and in business. For younger students, my approach is to integrate interesting activities with the lesson plan and to match the lesson pacing to the student's level and learning style. I believe all students can improve with the right guidance and with application on their part. My goal is to help any age student reach his or her potential, so that he/she is...

...engineering career after graduating from the University of Arizona. While I was in school, I spent time tutoring fellow students in math and logic classes. Doing this I found that I really enjoy helping people learn and overcome obstacles. After I learn a bit about my students I try to adapt my teaching style to fit their learning style, auditory/visual/etc. I strive to generate those 'lightbulb' moments, when suddenly it all clicks "everything seems so...
