...University of Rochester, and am currently pursuing a master's degree in cybersecurity at Rutgers University. I have experience tutoring math at the middle school and high school levels, particularly algebra and related topics. In tutoring I believe the most important thing is that the student understand *why* something is the case, rather than just *that* it is.

I also think that learning should be an enjoyable experience and not feel like a chore which is why I teach in an interactive and exciting manner.
