I believe that my past experience working as a tutor, high level of academic achievement, and passion for learning make me a great tutor. I tutor a variety of subjects, including SAT Prep, but my true passion...... When covering difficult subjects, I strive to teach not only the how and the what, but also the why.

Compassion and patience, with recourse to humor, are...

...working in counterterrorism. As far as tutoring style, I think it is really important not to give the student the answers but to ask them questions and help them come up with strategies to get to the answer for themselves; the goal is to make myself unnecessary in a way.
