This period can be extremely important for a young person's future success, and I know firsthand how overwhelming the pressure to succeed can get when you feel like you have to face it alone.

...have a 'my-way-or-the-high-way' mentality, but am flexible to trying to find new ways of teaching for however a particular student learns. I think this flexibility and dedication to making school work as easy as possible for my students is my strongest attribute as a tutor. I am available to work up to thirty hours per week. Friday through Sunday I would generally be free to tutor at any time; on Mondays, I am available during...

...new doors for our minds, and into subjects we sometimes never knew about or never believed to be as intertwined. For example: is it simply coincidence that the studies of astronomy and philosophy tend to happen at the same time for early cultures? Or that early arithmetical and geometrical proofs were found to exist in natural formations? I find that once connections and insights like the previous occur with the learner, passion begins to grow,...

Currently, I am working as a freelance writer, editor, and assistant to a scholar at the University of Washington who works on education policy.

My student was thirteen years old, and most of the resources for...

...that education is one of the most fundamental aspects of a society's wellbeing, and that it is the duty of those of us who have been graced with the advantages of a good education to give back in some way; one of my motivations for tutoring is to do my part in that way.

Though I went on to earn a degree in Latin and Greek literature in college,...

...and analytical chemistry. In my teaching, my current focus is on general chemistry (at the high school or college level) and organic chemistry, both of which were always personal favorites. Even more importantly, in my pursuit of the sciences and humanities I have not just mastered two different types of content; rather, I’ve mastered two different ways of thinking. Because I understand both the way a strong humanities student might think and the way a...

...and Latvian Holocaust Museum, editing and revising the final 145 pages of a historical text translated from German to Russian to English. I believe that in education, the most important element is not the lesson but the learner. Every student (of any age) has a unique set of strengths and needs, and thus requires a teacher who values not simply the subject matter but the students themselves. On top of it all, education is one...
