I think that having a great tutor can make such a difference in someone's life.

When I was in 8th grade, I was struggling with pre-algebra (I couldn't seem to wrap my head around distance/rate/time problems). I found myself loathing a class I had once loved. I started working with a tutor and going from barely getting by to being successful in that class was a very fulfilling feeling that I hope to continue to pass on to others.... The best teachers are always trying to learn as well.... Get to...

...in addition to the physical sciences and mathematics. I'm a voracious audio-book listener, and often drift to sleep with the words and stories of past philosophers, mathematicians, and world leaders. Beyond this, I thoroughly enjoy playing FIFA '16 on Xbox One, surfing the web, computer programming, and watching silly YouTube videos.

...Statistics as an Economist. I always liked using numbers to quantify and interpret certain problems; strange to some I know.I will be glad to tutor anyone in courses that require math and/or economic reasoning.

...in math, economics, physics, violin, and music publishing for five years. My favorite subject is math because it involves critical thinking and universal concepts. My teaching philosophy is to target the student's source of frustration, to ensure correct terminology using the student's course materials, to provide strategies for memorizing information, and to focus the bulk of the tutoring session on the student's homework or projects. In addition, I am very understanding, patient, and kind. My...

After college, I taught elementary school English in South Korea for two years before becoming a rowing coach.

Economics and English/literature are the two subjects I enjoy studying, and by extension teaching, the most, because they present two entirely...
