...began tutoring in high school as a cadet teacher for my AP Chemistry class. I only taught the whole class a few times, but I quickly realized that being on the teacher side of education gives a whole new perspective on the subject matter, and I find it very interesting.

I'm always eager to work with an individual student to develop a teaching and studying approach that...

...an essay assignment, I recount my writing process, which includes brainstorming, prewriting, and revising again and again. I also try to be silent periodically, to give the students time to think and prepare and to share their needs and questions. I also am not afraid to be wrong or not know the answer. These instances allow the student to be wrong without shame and to learn how to find the "right" answer. I have dozens...

By truly communicating with a student and understanding where he/she is struggling, we can insure improvement by teaching from the basics.

I also enjoy drumming, listening to all types of music, and socializing with my...

I have a 9 year old daughter, and a 1 year old son. My daughter has already captured my love of languages. She comprehends Spanish, and also speaks fluent Mandarin as she attends a Chinese Language Immersion School. My personal interests include...

...ways in which I can personalize the lessons in order to help a student access the material on their own terms, in ways that make sense to them. I'm a strong believer in the idea that if you can find ways to relate to a subject and make it meaningful to you, working hard to get better at it can be a fulfilling, even fun undertaking, rather than a chore. One of the reasons I...

Because of this, I'm aware that students will need help with content, but also building their confidence with the subject, and working through the anxiety or fear they may have by the time they connect with a tutor. But don't worry: I am here to support you in the way that fits best your learning style, prior knowledge, and...
