...experience mentoring peers and helping them not only succeed, but enjoy their school work. I believe that for a student to have an effective learning experience, the tutor must not only be passionate about teaching, but also about learning.

...the ACT/SAT Math exams. When it comes to teaching, I like to keep problems and concepts as visual as possible since that is how I learned. I like to show and demonstrate ideas to students and not just tell them. I may guide you very closely through a problem or idea at your own pace initially, but I will never give you the answer; I expect you to find it on your own. Ultimately, I...

...simply being outdoors at all. This is all especially easy here in a state like Colorado, where I've been for most my life.
