...into other areas. If the student understands these concepts, I go onto practice problems and many variations of them to test their understanding of these concepts. However, I will most likely use the problems and work provided by the students specific teacher/class because every teacher teaches a different way, and the work given by a specific teacher may not be exactly the same as another teacher. There are of course times where I've forgotten concepts...

...mathematics from the University of Rochester, and am currently pursuing a master's degree in cybersecurity at Rutgers University. I have experience tutoring math at the middle school and high school levels, particularly algebra and related topics. In tutoring I believe the most important thing is that the student understand *why* something is the case, rather than just *that* it is. This is crucial to forming a strong foundation on which further understanding can be built.

...Center at Duke for two years, and I developed much experience in this role.

I am a very analytic person with a diverse learning background. I have learned many disciplines, and thus...

...tutoring Physics because it is easier to understand concepts behind Math and is most seen in everyday life. When I work with students, I look for holes in their understanding and try to fill in the concepts behind it. I strive for the student to be able to figure out problems without resorting to only memorizing formulas. In my spare time I love to read; I also am a percussionist and love to run.

True education is a leading forth from within, not a putting in from without. All things but none too much, being well-rounded is the key. Problems are to be explored, not simply solved. Success erases all failures.
