As a physics major at Barnard College of Columbia University, I've worked as a tutor since I was in high school, helping peers and younger students with physics and math. I love helping people understand my favorite subjects and can't wait to do more work as a tutor. Outside of tutoring, I spend a lot of time exploring New York, reading, and doing community service.... In a first session, I think it's important to get to know the student and understand their learning style.

...of ways until we can find the method that best enables the student to understand the material. In my experience, a concept that made no sense the first time it was taught can become clear if just looked at in a different way. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, soccer, attending theater, knitting, and traveling whenever possible. I've had the great opportunity to spend a year living in Spain and exploring Europe, and I...

...to undergraduates. I love teaching all things science - especially fields relating to the outdoors and natural history. In my teaching I aim to inspire students to learn more and care about the natural work, and to always ask why things are they way they are, and how they came to be.
