...in Math subjects, though I am not against Physics, Programming, or other related topics. My philosophy of teaching is that a student should never be punished or shamed for asking a question, and moreover that my time is best spent on students who are struggling with the topic at hand - students who already "get it" don't really need my help, after all.
