...took several different ways of explaining it) until the student was comfortable with the material. This was the turning point for me - I was learning and understanding the material and was hooked. Everyone has a unique learning style and I do believe that anyone can be good at and like math. I take the same approach to helping students with math as Mrs. Hall took in her classroom - I explain the material using...

In my spare time, I like to read,...

...from the University of Washington's interdisciplinary Bioengineering program. This is a highly competitive program that requires proficiency in nearly all areas of high school and college level science and mathematics subjects, which is why I chose to teach these subjects on the Varsity Tutors platform in 2018 (my freshman year of college).

When...

...able to ace exams, but will in fact be able to teach material back to me, since that is the sign of true understanding. When I see someone's face light up when a complicated set of ideas is distilled into a viscerally understandable (and exciting!) bite-sized concept, I get a sense of fulfillment like nothing else. Learning math or science is all about that one moment where everything "clicks" into place, and when it happens,...

...the University of Washington. My major is currently undeclared, though my primary interests are Computer Science, Comprehensive Mathematics, and/or ACMS: Discrete Math and Algorithms, with a possible minor in physics.
