I spend my free time hiking, sewing, knitting, cooking, and building Lego castles with my...

...WHAT and WHO I tutor: I tutor ALL levels of math up to multivariable calculus and linear algebra! I have two younger siblings-- one in elementary school and one in high school-- so I feel comfortable teaching all ages! WHY I tutor math: To me, I don't really see math as an academic subject, but rather an art form. It is a universal language that everyone knows how to speak, regardless of who you are....

...from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. While I was there, I tutored middle school-, high school-, and college-aged students in everything from Algebra I through Differential Equations. The main thing I love about tutoring and teaching mathematics is providing students with a foundation to discover the various principles on their own (rather than rote memorization of "if you see this, do that") and them realizing the joy and fun in that discovery.

My specialty is in the STEM field, particularly mathematics. Since math subjects tend to build on each other and remain necessary in the engineering field, most math subjects are still fresh in my mind. I excel in STEM subjects and have a high affinity for theory, so I'm confident in...

Through teaching riding lessons my students have taught me the importance of patience. Every student is an...

I believe that people can learn anything if they work hard enough and have a good teacher. Relating subjects to a student's interests allows the student to be fully engaged and want to learn the material. From there, you can teach the student how to critically think through a problem so they can solve any problem or learn any material that comes their way.

I grew up tutoring three of my siblings and their friends in Math throughout Middle and High School. During that time, I also coached swimming and soccer. Over the years, I've learned to show same concepts in multiple ways depending on the person I'm tutoring. And I've built up a considerable tolerance and patience through years of tutoring people with different personalities.

When I am not tutoring, I love travel, especially to see family in CA and PA, but pretty much anywhere....

I'm a former physics and mathematics student from the University of Rhode Island. There, I discovered the teachings of renowned physicist Richard Feynman which, compressed, might read: "if you really understand something, then you can explain it to your grandmother." I spend a lot of my free time reading and writing, and am currently working my way through Dubliners, a series of stories by James Joyce. I also play guitar and know upwards of several...
