...King's College. I have tutored several of my peers in the past on coursework ranging from logic to math and political thought.

Before arriving to my current career choice of physical therapy, I did architecture, visual arts, I studied languages (Swedish and Russian, which I now speak fluently), took subjects in the humanities and the sciences, became a Pilates instructor, and also played drums and wrote music professionally!

...learn to express themselves through their language have been the most rewarding, because those are the times the students have really learned something about thinking critically. An increase in test scores or a plus on a report card (as important as those are) isn't enough: it's just as important that students develop strong critical thinking skills to carry them forward. A love for education, an inquisitive mindset, and critical thinking are all foundational elements to...

...who say "Math is not my thing" or "I can't do math". I say they are wrong. It is my firm belief that anyone can become competent in math, just as anyone can learn how to drive. True, some are better than others and some pick it up quicker than others, but everyone can do it. It just takes someone to help guide you through its complexities. It takes someone who will take the time...

...Colgate University and a student at Fordham Law School. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English Literature with a focus on Critical Theory and Cultural Semiotics. As such, I've always tried to travel *within* each Standardized Test, parsing out an underlying structure, and then using this framework to "crack the code." Whenever I've worked with students in this manner, we've always had a total blast-- it's like a puzzle in a challenging video game,...
