...Chicago with a peer group. We were close-knit, collaborative and hand-picked for what would be a rigorous and unique learning experience to set a foundation for our respective quantitative trading roles. I became a market maker, providing liquidity to the public orders, a specialist, keeping an orderly book of all public orders, and floor manager, overseeing the daily operations. The environment was dynamic, highly demanding, requiring laser focus, preparation and stamina. An integral member of...

...that seemed entirely opaque only a few minutes earlier. I majored in theater and astrophysics at Columbia University and I am now a playwriting MFA at NYU, one of the best programs in the country (the story of how I transitioned from physics to theater is pretty funny and I???m happy to share it). While my intensive study of advanced Math and Physics helps me tutor those subjects, I find my theater skills are just...

...decided to leave because it wasn't the right path for me. Even though I enjoyed Optometry, I realized it wasn't my true calling.

...to 12 adult students. My favorite subjects to tutor are SAT and ACT math. While these are the subjects most students dread, I find that this is where a good tutor can induce the most "Ah ha!" moments because there are so many patterns that can help you ace that test if you know where to look. Helping students conquer these subjects (and become "math people") by identifying and breaking down the methodology is very...

Finally, I let the student try a similar problem on their own to test their understanding. I think it...

Afterwards, I began tutoring friends and local clients, primarily for the SAT and PSAT.

My approach to tutoring is strengthening the basics and then teaching the complex. Students are like buildings; they...
