I enjoy one-on-one tutoring because I can talk to a student, identify issues, and help in understanding the concepts and ideas. We'll draw pictures and graphs to illustrate, and explain it all in language the student can understand. Hearing a student say "Is that all?" or "But that's easy!" makes my day.

...the subject matter as well as learn how to actually do the mathematics involved. My philosophy is based on the idea above: to help you understand how math works, making you able to do any problem yourself! I believe that you can always do better in math, no matter what level you're in, and I help make that happen by asking the right questions and working through important problems with you. Through my teaching experiences,...
