...tests, as it is a skill I've learned to master. I believe education should be engaging and exciting, and students should be able to get the help they need. I'll do my best to make sure the student understands the material and would be happy to create additional resources. I have received numerous awards in programming for VEX Robotics, essay writing, and for my artwork. I also speak fluent Korean at home.

...understand their material better is by simply being there for them every step of the way. This way, students can feel comfortable making and consequently recognizing their common mistakes, which we can then work on to eventually fully grasp the material.

Any concept can be broken down into...

...I believe these two exams are two of the most stressful exams a student can take, but with a good study schedule and study habits, they are manageable. I am also interested in teaching younger students (elementary and middle school age) the basics of mathematics. A strong foundation of basic algebra is crucial for ACT or SAT preparation. Mastering these skills at a young age can set students up nicely for high school and beyond.

I know that traditional educational methods are not the best for everyone, so I would love to be able to help struggling students as much as I possibly can, since I have been in a similar situation before!
