...as Westworld, Sherlock, How I Met Your Mother, and even The Bachelorette when I'm at a low point. Beyond personal interests, tutoring has always been a side project of mine. Even since middle school, at a local elementary school, I would help tutor students in basic arithmetic and spelling. In high school, while the curriculum changed from multiplication tables to Calculus, the idea was still the same: help as many people reach their full potential...

...practice and self-discovery. From my own experiences with challenging subjects, I know that going the extra mile by doing more practice problems than are actually assigned or watching videos on certain concepts helps reinforcement and allows students to thrive in the classroom. As a tutor, I like to guide students in the correct direction and help them gain footing when learning a new subject; however, I also like to give students independence so they can...

When I teach, I enjoy drawing real world connections and giving tangible examples of abstract ideas. I...

...those of the professor, and some even came from other calculus sections to attend my review sessions. At the end of the day, however, I do not abide by any rigid teaching style. I just love teaching, and I do whatever is necessary to make a problem/concept "make sense" to the person I'm working with. Even if that means taking a short break, approaching the problem from a radically different angle, or giving them a...

...subject to tutor is math and that's because there are so many ways to answer the questions, I love showing the many ways to answer one question! I think that my tutoring style is more hands on and going through the problem with the student. I will show them the way of answering the question then I let them do a different problem on their own and just guide them through it. Outside of tutoring...
