...sessions. What sets me apart from other ACT tutors is my enthusiasm towards the subject. I understand that studying for the ACT is not a fun time for many students, so my goal is to make learning as enjoyable as possible for my students.

...in the basic sciences and can provide a solid foundation in Biology, Chemistry and Physics. I believe strongly in a holistic approach to teaching because in my experience students are far more willing to learn when seemingly arcane subjects can be tied into their day to day life and their relevance concretely demonstrated. I delight in finding and applying these connections, and I look forward to teaching others to find them as well. In my...

I love helping people understand material that they have trouble working through on their own. Everyone learns differently and there is a way to teach everyone once you breakdown the information to its most basic concepts and build up from there.

...While this image has been sadly true for many students, my own experience of learning math as I grew up was quite the opposite, and it is that opposite experience which inspired me to go into education. In middle and high school, I was fortunate enough to have educators who taught math not as a regimen of drills and memorization, but as a process of thinking logically. They taught not exclusively through by-the-book lectures, but through...

...I started tutoring informally in high school. In recent years, I have led a weekly Calculus III study group and serve as an engineering school tutor at my university. While I tutor a variety of subjects, my favorites to work with are math and computer science. I enjoy watching my students gain confidence in a subject they may have struggled with in the past and love the way tutoring forces me to examine a subject...
