...the Math/Science Resource Center for 2 years, in addition to being a peer tutor for an environmental studies class: Humans and the Biosphere. During my prior teaching experience, I discovered my favored teaching method: getting to know my students in a one-on-one environment, and learning about their interests.

...it very important to engage with my students. I may ask them more questions than they ask me. I do this in order to determine where any fundamental misunderstandings exist. I find that in most instances, confused students are unclear on one or two simple, yet important ideas. Clearing these up, and deliberately following their implications, can make students have a much better level of understanding while also feeling confident in their knowledge. This processes...

...as a Math Lecturer at Northeastern University. Per this, I prefer to work in Math subjects, though I am not against Physics, Programming, or other related topics.
