In my free time I like to knit, cook, draw/paint, as well as being an avid Redditor. My dream in...

I believe students should not only be able to grasp the material they are being tutored at the moment, but also build a strong basic foundation, which will allow...

...college courses, and dance instructor. These different positions have pushed me to broaden my perspective on how to communicate with students and address the topics they do not understand. While my educational background has more than prepared me to understand the basics of the science subjects that my students were studying, my goal as an instructor reaches beyond simply teaching the lesson; I also aim to spark my student's interests in the subject and make...
