The first is identification, where students are given an interactive set of learning exercises and it's determined whether they're visual, auditory, verbal, sequential, kinesthetic, repetitive, or combination learners.

Afterwards comes application, where the student...

That was a good thing: although Joplin is rompingly good, nobody but nobody develops a theme as Bach did. And that's some serious order, folks.

I always stay flexible with my learning style, and can teach units and subjects in a variety of different ways. I believe the "right" way to solve a problem is however it's most easily understood. I can teach broad subjects or simply go over a worksheet, and will do whatever I can to help my student...

Outside of academics, I'm a huge sports fan (mainly basketball and football). I play on a variety...

...over the past year I have been the TA for two microeconomics classes. The positions required me to explain economic concepts, how math played a part in each of those concepts, and how to do the math required to solve problems related to those concepts. I make an excellent tutor because I once struggled with learning concepts myself. This means that I both empathize with students who are having difficulties and I can understand which...
