...day. My passion for their success inspired them to excel in these life-enriching experiences. On my off days I like spending my time in nature like the old transcendentalists "tree bathing", as the Japanese call it. If weather is not permitting I would be painting, writing music, or poetry indoors. I am also the full-time drummer of the instrumental progressive rock/post-metal band Sioum, formed in Chicago, A.D. 2010. I have dedicated my whole life to...

...Japanese at Carnegie Mellon University. I enjoy tutoring because I love sharing knowledge with others, especially in one-on-one sessions, or with a small group. Teaching others is a great way to expand understanding of how other students think and develop ideas, and it allows myself to see new ways to look at problems. While I'm not studying (or helping my friends study), I love to play music (piano, flute, guitar), take a walk through the...

Mathematics is similar; it requires a practiced hand and a clear mental map. I am happy...

I believe that learning is personal and ought to be personalized- as a passionate student with ADD myself, I know how frustrating it is to have the desire to learn and comprehend new concepts but need help outside of the conventional classroom to do so.

...me because I am driven to help others and give whatever knowledge I have gained over the years in every field. I also have experience dealing with situations in which students are not quickly or readily grasping concepts, and I have developed the patience to handle these situations.

I am a very passionate learner and I would be delighted to share that love for learning to other students. My empathetic mindset, work ethic, and persistence for success is what I value most about myself and how it can positively impact others.... My philosophies behind teaching are that there is not a single method to learn a subject, but multiple approaches to learning it. My belief is that using all the resources acquirable will lead to a far more optimal learning experience. It will also reveal which methods are more suitable to the student. Finally, I believe that learning should never be rushed. It is far more important to have a firm basis for understanding and a thorough understanding so that building upon it can lead to a successful learning process.
