As a history teacher, my work is grounded firmly in literacy and writing. The latter is a skill that...

...SAT and ACT preparation. I developed a love for tutoring test preparation for two major reasons. First off, I'm a puzzle solver by nature and I genuinely find the tests fun! That sounds bizarre to most people, but I think one of my principal strengths as a tutor is the ability to instill this positive and optimistic attitude in my students as well. A good attitude helps to inspire confidence, which in turn yields tangibly...

...the opportunity to work with gifted learners and students with various learning capabilities and learning styles. Helping a student make connections in a language (whether it be a second language like French or connections in written English) is an extremely rewarding experience.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading novels, graphic novels and comics, practicing yoga, watching soccer,...

...I graduated from Yale with a degree in American Studies, and took all sorts of fun and arguably bizarre classes from building medical devices for babies, to learning Zulu, and analyzing German fairytales.

...sharing my philosophy for learning the key concepts in these subjects/examinations. I believe in driving students towards independent learning and making them able to apply their knowledge in real life scenarios. I like to dig deep into the roots of subjects to make sure the student actually understands the basics of the subjects being taught. It's fascinating how a strong foundation in academics helps students decipher the more difficult concepts independently. Outside teaching, I am...

I am enthusiastic about thinking deeply about concepts and helping others to have a greater understanding of such concepts.

...know the challenges that many children face with the ever-changing curriculum, more recently with Common Core. I also sympathize with other parents who struggle to help their children with homework which rarely resembles what we learned as children.
