I love learning, and through my own studies have learned a great deal about effective study strategies, the psychology of learning, and how to overcome obstacles that are both pre-existing and, perhaps more importantly, that we create for ourselves. An important part of my approach to working with students is first identifying whether the student's main challenge is one of content, strategy, or...

I like lists because long paragraphs...

I believe in using visuals and a calm composure to aid students in arriving at the right answer themselves, and feeling good about it. In my free time...

My goal is to get my students to the point where they no longer need me. I like to focus on the underlying concepts so that students can apply what we learn in our sessions to problems they haven't seen before. After our sessions, my students should be able to have a concrete plan when attempting a new problem and be able to extrapolate their knowledge of concepts to master the details.... Concepts first, details later....
