Learning math is all about trial and error, that is why we use pencils! Math is a hands on subject where students learn by doing. That is the approach I take when teaching and tutoring math. I am merely a guide to keep students on the right path, rather than tell them where to go.

...my four years there, I was selected by the department chairs to be the designated tutor for Mathematics (Precalculus to Calculus 3), Organic and General Chemistry, Biology (Cellular, Molecular, Developmental, and Genetics), and Physics, each for minimum of one year.
