...to tutor college courses as a freshman at NYU, where I double-majored in Physics and Biochemistry. I continued to tutor throughout college and after.

There is nothing worse than an expert "teacher" who has forgotten what the various stages of learning was like! I work with students of all ages and in all the subjects I've listed. I look forward to hearing from you and working with you!... I'm a "late...

...- history, government, political science, philosophy, etc. - are subjects that inherently deal with concepts and creations made by mankind, and thus they reflect man's imperfect nature. The ability to analyze these concepts and creations with a mind for the why, the how, and the strengths and the weaknesses is invaluable.
