...the playground for staring at a map and try to remember the countries, their capitals, their borders, etc. I then found the world of mathematics where thinking deeply about even the simplest ideas, as Bertrand Russell did in his famous paper proving why 1 + 1 = 2 from the ground up, was key to mastery. I wasn't fond of rote memorization and applying formulae. Instead, I was interested in the patterns that were involved....

Out of these subjects, math is my favorite, and the reason for that is I have a strong understanding of the material. Also, since middle...

...My main motivation for this was that it was just very enjoyable for me. It is incredibly exciting to see the progress people make when they're given a little extra push.

...out to their needs and provide them the necessary groundwork to learn, all while showing them how much fun it is! I have tutored High School Mathematics (specifically Algebra 1 and Geometry) for over two years, and Philosophy (primarily in critical thinking and logic) for one and a half years. Mathematics has a very strong connection to Philosophy, thus I have learned to one to support the other, which better assists in understanding the material....
