...academic essay, trying to improve their grades, or simply attempting to increase their skill level in a particular subject. Improving one's mental skills is never a wasted endeavor; such skills continue to advance one's life long after tutoring has ceased by fostering new ideas and perspectives, improving interactions with others, stimulating conversations, and promoting on-the-job and daily life problem solving. I became a professional Tutor after several years as an Academic Writing Editor for undergraduate...

...beginning my pre-medical post-baccalaureate studies at Columbia. I greatly enjoy helping students of all ages to understand concepts, just as I have at Columbia where I would frequently guide my fellow peers through physics problems.

As a teacher, I try to provide my students with numerous different methods for approaching a problem before giving them practice problems to work on. Most importantly, I strive to first understand my students' learning styles. After doing so, I shape my method of teaching to match their form of learning so that the students could better understand the topic...
