...program in astrophysics. I was heavily involved in the peer tutoring program at my high school. Being a private school we were more like extra teachers than usual peer tutors.

fun, outgoing tutor, constantly considering the needs and personalities of my students, in order to empathize with them and customize their experience. There is no more rewarding feeling than helping students overcome frustrating boundaries and re-emphasizing their self confidence.... Listening is important. I try to let students advocate for themselves, and be detailed in describing what part of the assignment they're having difficulty with. I find visual, real-life anecdotes help get concepts across to students. Patience...

While I love teaching all subjects, science is easily my favorite because it explains how everything works and is so applicable to the world around us.

Most of the students...

Albert Einstein once said one doesn't fully understand a topic until one...
