...teaching style must be fluid because not all students learn in the same way. Some students may learn best by completing ten practice problems while others need pictures and visuals, teachers need to have a solid foundation in their subject area so they can modify their instruction to the needs of the student.

...I also have extensive experience working with reading and writing in terms of the standardized testing. I like to think that my teaching style varies widely between students, as I try my best to mold my plan around who I'm teaching. However, you'll often find me explaining not only how to understand a concept but its significance and role in the world, as I've found it's easier to remember something if you know its importance.

...all subject areas. My strongest subject is Mathematics and I also believe in the development of good study habits in all areas, thus I feel that students still need to be taught what is good studying, how to stay organized and focus on a study plan for success. Once a struggling shy student myself, I can be relatable and understanding on the obstacles of what's keeping a student from achieving their potential.

Approaching math and science problems with optimism and desire for learning are key to developing one's mind and skills. More than helping to understand subjects, my goal in tutoring is to transmit desire for the sciences and passion for learning, which I believe is key to learning in the long run.
