...with others! I have found that one of the most effective ways to learn a subject and retain the knowledge of it is to teach it to someone else! I love to educate others because I enjoy learning new things and I know that in a regular classroom, often teachers don't have the time to cater to each individuals learning styles, weak points and general needs so I get to do that in my one...

...compassion. My own journey into medicine began with a fascination for the intricacies of the human body and a desire to make a difference in people's lives.

...eager children's eyes set us on a path of discovery which hasn't ended. Our journey from that Pacific paradise to NY took us the rest of the way around the globe and gave us the determination we needed to spend our next 3 years teaching 9th Gr. English in Brooklyn.

My experience in tutoring comes from the free weekly French tutoring program I initiated at my high school, which grew to me tutoring other subjects as well.

I think the most important part of being a tutor, is remembering that you are teaching a person, rather than a lesson. Each individual learns in their own way!! A good tutor must learn to adapt and adjust, so that they may provide the most effective, individualized, and engaging learning experience to their student.

...and the events of history are the way they are, and by lifting the curtain on the intricacies of the subject matter. I believe that learning is, and ought to be, for its own sake. Math and philosophy, and their nuanced interactions, are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I can count, but the validation of completing a long race is nothing like the satisfying moment of writing "Q.E.D." on a...

...at Collin College. It's difficult to earn a living as an adjunct professor. The pay is terrible and it's hard to find enough hours to make a living wage, so I had a second job as a building manager. So, I decided to go back to school to earn my doctorate so that I can work full time in my field at a decent wage. Now I'm in the Ph.D. in philosophy program at the...

...achieve their goals. My teaching style involves asking lots of strategic questions to help students discover answers for themselves, a process which my students typically find quite empowering. Still, I recognize that each student has unique needs, questions, and learning styles, so I strive to listen first and then craft individualized plans to meet each student's particular objectives. In my spare time I like to get outside hiking, playing soccer, or volunteering at my church's...

...less-frequently requested subjects like Philosophy! My teaching philosophy is a mix of formal training and personal methods.

As a philosophy student I also utilize the Socratic method while tutoring, which focuses on asking students questions in order to get them to reach their answers. Throughout my...

...was wrong. I had a lack of direction. I needed a mentor. When I had my first mentor, I wasn't sure he would be the right one. We worked together for some time, but some of his characteristics were not compatible with my liking. After about two more mentors, I finally selected an intelligent, organized, and serious mentor that was heavily invested in my success. To have a mentor that is invested in your success...

...my own learning. This goes for the high school students I taught Physics, Chemistry and other sciences; my colleagues in the software development, testing, and implementation fields; undergraduate students in Philosophy and Intro to Data Science; the professionals taking time and thought to learn advanced use of spreadsheets and databases; and the two students I tutored in Latin! My teaching is conscientious with regard to sources I use, and with regard to my students' specific...

...greater comprehension of a difficult text. These experiences have led me to a general teaching ethos of flexibility and adaptation. I believe the tutor should be working to meet the student on their level, and I take every opportunity I can to adapt my style of teaching to the individual's proficiencies. My favorite subjects to tutor are English, writing, college essays, ACT reading, ACT writing, and philosophy. When I'm not tutoring, I spend much of...

...applying to college can be very stressful, and as a future professor, I think it is important that I help walk students through that process, sharing advice and critique and making sure that everyone has the chance to represent themselves well when those dream schools are on the line (IWU was mine!). In my free time, I am a creative writer, a singer, an amateur artist, and an aspiring vegetarian chef. I love reading anything...

Through a comprehensive approach, I attempt to instill in students both knowledge and a love for learning.... My teaching...
