...recently. After studying Mandarin Chinese intensively in my undergraduate program, I moved to Shanghai where I lived and worked as a jazz musician for nearly eight years. During this time, my Mandarin reached a level of fluency I never could have attained otherwise. Nothing makes me happier and more proud than seeing my students break through a (figurative) ceiling in their understanding of a subject. I've found that this happens when the student is engaged...

...and tutored students in ESL/EFL, test preparation, and college application essays. A strong belief I have is that classes should always be grounded in real life, so I'm always collecting authentic materials from a wide range of sources like movie clips, blog posts, podcasts, and sometimes eavesdropping on people's conversations! I also enjoy incorporating communicative discussions and activities to ensure that lessons are dynamic and meaningful. I find so much joy in teaching because I...

...so hard I thought the table below might splinter, but it didn't, instead - it burned. The cotton exploded like dynamite, leaving a dark purple blotch in my vision. At age twelve, I had successfully produced nitrocellulose in my backyard using tree stump remover and drain cleaner. As my vision cleared, my head filled with questions: How can a cotton ball explode from pressure alone? Does the change in the cotton ball have anything to...

If I have to brush up on my AP Chemistry as an excuse to explain why dimensional analysis is actually the most useful math you'll ever learn, I find it thrilling, not a chore. That's really my whole...
