Learning is an ongoing process. As a tutor it is my goal to help take information and make it "real" for the learner. In this way theory becomes practical information that can help one grow. Aside from helping others understand concepts, I enjoy anime, sports (basketball & skateboarding), and learning new things myself.

...built many computers and done innumerable installations and configurations. I'm currently experimenting with micro-computers and their application to Amateur Radio and emergency operations. My teaching philosophy wants to encourage the "Why", not just the "How" of the subject. Understanding is lots more fun than just turning the crank. I seek an alternate path to understanding if the student finds the first approach difficult. I once read: there are several ways to get on the other...

I have truly enjoyed studying the sciences in my college years, and since then have enjoyed even more so to tutor the scientific concepts to others!... Teaching is gauged by the comprehension of the student. If one knows something well, they can help another understand it in terms beneficial for the learner!...

...and I also hope to achieve a minor degree in mathematics, which after my undergraduate level, I will go into graduate level to pursue mathematics. I like to tutor students in various aspect of mathematics because, I just like them, had someone in my early life help me understand that mathematics isn't something to be afraid of but rather an impressing way of expressing one's self and helping solve daily life problems.

My teaching strategy is active, in-depth learning, which promotes the problem solving and collaborative learning capabilities of my students. The tools I use to implement my strategies are homework assignments, paper assignments, quizzes, and the think-pair-share technique.

In such cases, it is important to reassure the student,...
