...at a liberal arts college in Singapore, where I worked in the writing center and mentored students extensively in academic writing. Since then, I have been traveling, while continuing to tutor writing skills online. I emphasize learning how to write a clear, organized, and persuasive argument supported by solid evidence.

...As a standardized test tutor, I have an interactive tutoring style. Once I teach the strategies I usually don't answer content questions, but instead, I ask a lot of questions to encourage my students to think for themselves. I always remind them that I will not be there on test day. That said, it's very important for me to be a supportive, fun, and engaging teacher. I look forward to tutoring sessions and try my...

...some students were future engineers and scientists already quite proficient at math, others were studying the humanities or fine arts. Not all students had the same background through their prior coursework or in high school.

Finally, after college I further developed my ability to explain difficult concepts as a corporate actuary. I was often required...

...math is that for the most part, once you learn any material (and I mean really learn it), you are more often than not going to remember it for the rest of your life. I sometimes surprise myself with the things I still remember from my math classes in the past. I think the main reason though is that once you have a strong understanding of the basics, taking on harder concepts becomes less of...

I love to work with students of all ages! I think that each person learns differently and needs to approach material in different ways. I also believe in organization when it comes to studying and homework. Only with a plan can you hope to be successful! I bring a lot of fun to the table and hope my students bring positive attitudes and an appetite for learning!

...power of knowledge and wisdom. I aim to one day become a professor of philosophy (particularly ethics), and I am currently in the process of preparing for a joint JD/PhD in Philosophy. Consequently, I am interested in both theoretical and applied ethics. One of my core talents is the ability to convey concepts in multiple ways, and I like to think of studying philosophy as learning how to say complicated things with simple words.

...am a Biochemistry major studying on a pre-med track, and prior to college, I attended a college prep high school. Sometimes, studying, preparing for a test, or any other academic challenge can seem impossible to complete. I've been there, and if I had to bet everyone has! Luckily, help is always available. Everyone learns different, so, for myself, I developed new studying techniques and practices, which really helped my grades and my morale. I'd love...
