...most effective study technique is to avoid memorization whenever I can. I always aim for long retention of information--yes, I am against cramming! Of course, there are numerous occasions where memorization is unavoidable. In those cases, we will work together as a team to find a way that suits YOU best to make it as easy (and fun) as possible. I always try to gain a deep understanding of the concepts that I learn. It...

I embrace a student centered approach to student learning. This means that I let the student lead the discussion of a particular problem. I have been teaching for 6 years at the high school level, having come off a BS in Math with a minor in Physics from UC Merced(go bobcats).

Over the last 20 years, I have seen all types of classes, teachers, exams, and homework. I've been the student, the tutor, the teacher, and the professor. Whatever it is that you need to get ready for, I will take the time to make sure you can get to where you want to be!

...its process is either ignorant or unwise. One could suppose that's another way of pointing out those who haven't been part of it, but that's not my purpose. My purpose is to aid those in the muck of it so their efforts and time expenditure are met with appropriate results, because things are not easy and often times quite grueling. But we deserve better from those who might have a useful tip or two.

I am a potential friendly mathematician who is also interested in computer programming.

...groups including those focused on immunology, advanced imaging, and gene therapy throughout my career. My proficiency in scientific writing includes preparation and organization of numerous grant and fellowship applications, including budget formulations. In graduate school, I learned how rewarding teaching can be while instructing undergraduate lab courses of up to 32 students at a time in subjects including introductory biology, introductory life sciences, cell biology, and vertebrate embryology. Office hours consisted of one-on-one tutoring to...

...proficiency in nearly all areas of high school and college level science and mathematics subjects, which is why I chose to teach these subjects on the Varsity Tutors platform in 2018 (my freshman year of college). When I'm not tutoring, I like to spend my time running, hiking, reading, coding, and doing research. If there's anything else you'd like to know about my background, feel free to ask me during a session.

...major since it has always interested me, although I have a lot of experience from high school helping kids to write fluent essays. When I'm not studying or in class I am a part of the Financial Engineering Club of UW where I help engineer software that predicts the movement of stocks and portfolios via various financial indicators. When I'm not doing math I'm usually playing Dungeons and Dragons, messing around with computer, or hiking.

...since that is the sign of true understanding. When I see someone's face light up when a complicated set of ideas is distilled into a viscerally understandable (and exciting!) bite-sized concept, I get a sense of fulfillment like nothing else. Learning math or science is all about that one moment where everything "clicks" into place, and when it happens, you notice. That feeling is what drives my love for mathematics, science, and other related disciplines,...

...I believe that a student works best where they are comfortable and confident. I teach with collaboration, where the student and I work together to achieve our goals. As a recent high-school graduate and current UW student I understand the pressures that weigh on students' shoulders. From ACT's and SAT's to college apps to extracurriculars, I know that there's a lot on a student's plate. It's my goal to work with students on an individual...
