I want to help students succeed. It is my goal to help them be the best they can, everyone has a different path in life, and I want to help students find the path that best suits them. We all learn differently and helping them figure out what works for them so they can take that with them in life and advocate for their needs is a skill all students need.

...am very excited to begin my career as an educator. I came into this field because I believe that my strength is my ability to present and explain math in a way that's easy to grasp and appreciate. Anybody can copy and paste the formulas onto the blackboard or screen, but not everybody can take a seemingly complicated subject and break it down into simple, understandable terms. In my practice, I want to make it...

...science and math. I tutored college statistics and freshman chemistry for two years at MSU. I want to continue to tutor math and science at the primary and secondary level alongside philosophy.

Teachers and tutors act to facilitate new discoveries, and the best teachers strive to develop a personal learning strategy...

To me teaching is all about getting the light bulb to go on. People have different learning styles; the tutor's job is to determine the most effective learning style for each student.

I split my time between Indiana and Oregon, but I am available for Skype tutoring sessions when I'm not in your city. When I'm not teaching,...

...for about 15 years. I have also taught mathematics at the college level for the past 7 years. My research touches on the interactions between math and theoretical computer science, as well as number theory (largely the study of prime numbers). I've taught courses ranging from basic arithmetic up through linear algebra and multivariable calculus. The second most exciting thing about mathematics is that moment when something totally opaque and confusing suddenly solidifies into crystal...

I'm a Vassar graduate who loves to learn

...that's all algebra is in my opinion. When I tutor, I give students room to discover the path to their own understanding of a topic or concept. I'm a "guide on the side." Outside of tutoring, I enjoy hiking, hearing live music, scoring great finds at thrift stores, and playing guitar. I love to share the experience of learning with other people. I believe our minds are miraculous. Learning exercises the mind, as does play....
