The majority of my experience has been helping young students at the elementary and middle school levels to enhance their reading, writing, and researching skills, but my passion to help students achieve their potential in any subject applies to individuals of all ages and levels. It is rewarding for me to help students approach difficult concepts and rebuild their confidence in subjects while reaffirming their values...

...teaching style includes asking questions so I can better understand how to best help you, being patient while providing examples to provide understanding of a question or idea, complimenting said person of getting a concept right and doing well on a task (because people need a little affirmation to know they are doing well and can be too hard on themselves at times), and walking students through a problem and challenging them a bit if...

...down and explain a subject to someone who is having difficulties is inspiring! In college, I would get excited not just about learning, but about conquering a subject after having a conversation with one of my professors about a class.

I was lucky enough to have excellent teachers growing up, and...

...very much like fantasy/sci-fi. I have a computer science degree, and I've put that to (questionably) good use by being far too interested in video game development and Android devices. Being a big tech enthusiast, few things make me happier than learning about new gadgets or fiddling with new toys. I hope to attend law school in the coming academic year, and I want to parlay my background and interest in tech into an intellectual...

...a Yeats poem is like gathering jigsaw pieces, and constructing a thesis for an essay is like putting them together. Algebra and Geometry are subjects that naturally lend themselves to puzzling. Each equation has a solution. I enjoyed learning these subjects, and I love sharing that with new people. When I am a student, the subject matter is the puzzle. When I am a teacher, my student becomes the riddle. There is a barrier between...
