When I am not working, I enjoy working on my project car, swimming, and running.... Students learn best when they begin to feel comfortable with a subject. I start by comparing difficult and intimidating topics into everyday life situations that everyone has experienced. Chemical interactions can be compared to walking in the mall with friends. Calculus is much less intimidating when students realize they've been doing it since elementary school when they learned to play catch! Once a solid foundation and the student becomes comfortable with the subject, concepts can be expanded upon from there.
