...simply to help my students get good grades (although we do that, too); I work to strengthen my students' ambition to know more and to use academic success as a measure for how much they are learning. Most teachers don't like to be asked why students have to know math or grammar or history and so on; to me, there is no better or more important question. My tutoring sessions are conversations. We ask each...

...the AP exam or SAT subject tests. By tutoring people I was close in age with, I was able to better understand their struggles and confusions. I continued in university where I would help friends through subjects I recently completed and walk through concepts that the teacher struggled to make relatable. Even as an engineer in the professional world today, I am constantly teaching other whether it is explaining an idea I have or a...

...the Maxwell D. Taylor Award. I worked as a translator for 5 years before looking for a new career. During my career as a translator, I began practicing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. Over the last decade of training, I've attained the rank of brown belt. I started teaching classes and private lessons as a purple belt and most of my teaching approach is informed by this experience. My students taught me that the only correct way...

...As a lover of both academics and field work I take every opportunity I can to teach when not working my main profession, and I found that substitute teaching and tutoring fills the void while allowing me to continue my research during the busy seasons. I like to think I have a well-rounded education, especially in mathematics, language, and biology, and a reasonable teaching background. Not only have I been a tutor my whole adult...

I am a student at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia, though I'm originally from upstate New York, right outside of Albany (which is actually the capital of New York, NOT New York City). I genuinely have a love for learning and more than just helping students with certain subjects they may be having trouble with, I hope to inspire a hunger for knowledge in students.

...traits that ultimately define me as a person are my curiosity and compassion. I like learning about fields just to know them, and in doing so have accumulated an extremely diverse knowledge base. I tend to excel at putting people at ease and breaking complex concepts down into intuitive shorthand. I have some personal experience working with students with special needs as I myself have learning disorders which have made academics difficult for me, and...

This may all sound pretty bland, but I have a variety of hobbies and I like...

...to study engineering. I've also had some pretty bad teachers as well, so I know what it's like to feel totally lost and frustrated in a subject. My goal here is to make the hard subjects easy, and inspire you to be bolder when encountering tough problems in the future. As for the specific subjects, Mechanical Engineering at RPI requires you to be a 'Jack of All Trades'. Almost every subject from high school could...
