Although I am well-versed in architecture, my favorite subjects to tutor are Algebra and Calculus!

...a recent engineering graduate who has 3 years of tutoring experience, I love teaching math in particular because there are so many students who think it's not for them or that they'll never be good at it. That's just not true! In most cases, they just someone who can teach them according to their unique learning abilities. I like to incorporate as many visuals as possible and technology where applicable to increase the learning curve....

I also love working with language learners, drawing on years of studying and practicing French and German, including...

...I can adapt well to the needs of the tutee. I prefer teaming up with my students to arrive at solutions. I feel this allows the student to behave more comfortably, and in turn, get more out of the material that they are learning. This strategy has worked especially well in the Baltimore City Prison. I do recognize that each student is an individual and may have different ways of learning material. Given this, I...
