...Grand Valley I tutored a young boy in reading for two years, grades 3-5. He was uninterested in the things they read at school, but loved history and bugs; so to improve his reading skills he would read encyclopedia entries about bugs or short history stories to me. I made sure he was enunciating correctly, sounding out words properly, and not skipping over words. I was also a TA for a microbiology lab class, there...

Every question is a good question.

...I have learned two things specifically that improve the learning environment. The first is that each individual possesses a unique style of learning. It is important that I understand that style of learning so that real growth can be accomplished. The second is that teaching and learning are not two separate activities. As a student teaches principles they are learning they are able to understand those principles at a deeper level. I was born and...

...I am committed, devoted and conscientious to everything I set my mind on and my decision to tutor reflects my lifelong desire for personal growth and education.

...a good tutor can induce the most "Ah ha!" moments because there are so many patterns that can help you ace that test if you know where to look. Helping students conquer these subjects (and become "math people") by identifying and breaking down the methodology is very rewarding.

...Academic and Business Writing, also Communication Skills in Business and Relationships, and Acupuncture. in 2022, Varsity commissioned me to teach small classes preparing students for the standardized Massage Board Exam (MBLEx). My Varsity students have said they make substantially more progress with me than with other tutors. I believe this is because I encourage my students to get to get to know how they learn. This trains the most important aspects of executive function, which...

...since I love sharing my interest in the science and using it to help students better understand and enjoy these exciting fields. My teaching philosophy is best summarized as "show not tell" -- I find that guiding students such that they can arrive at the answers themselves, rather than just explaining the problem, helps them fully realize their potential for success. When I'm not learning or teaching, I spend my time reading, running and baking.
