I worked one-on-one with students to guide creative problem solving methods and help develop critical thinking skills. Additionally, I have tutored a number of students in high school Physics, always emphasizing conceptual understanding. While my own area of studies is in Physics and Astronomy, my favorite subject...

...solving nature of my parents' careers. This led to me enjoying math, science and engineering and turning those interests into a potential career. Using my passion for these subjects, I have tutored many middle school and high school aged students, along with helping my peers. Apart from learning, I enjoy solving challenging problems and puzzles, reading, being outdoors, and running on the varsity cross country and track and field teams at Colorado School of Mines.

...concepts by approaching the topics from multiple angles that were tailored to the students preferred learning strategies. It is my goal to help each student I tutor master the material by tailoring the session to accommodate the the student's preferred learning style while focusing on their weaknesses and reinforcing their strengths.
