...because for example, Kinematics and Dynamics is used for all chapters. However, before taking Physics, finishing all Algebra and Geometry classes is strongly advised. Math is one of the most hated subjects, but if students follow the step correctly, it will become a lot smoother.

I think the struggles I faced academically and overcoming them gives me unique insight in helping...

I have a variety of interests, such as traveling and visiting art museums. I enjoy both the sciences and the humanities, as well as just learning for the sake of learning.

I have spent numerous summers counseling children from ages 7-16 (both male and female) and am extremely comfortable talking to and relating to this age group. I am a great tutor because I use analogy, mnemonics, and memorization tricks. I find the easiest way to reach an understanding that will "stick" in a student's brain is in terms of something they are already passionate about.
