...teaching I am one who reflects often, thoughtfully, and intuitively. I believe that when working with student it is essential to help each student become reflective and metacognitive about their own learning. If students are reflective in their learning process they will be able to advocate what they need to continue learning, they will be able to understand how to seek out knowledge, and they will become life-long learners as a result.

I am a first year Neuroscience major at Georgia Tech! Throughout high school and college I have had experience tutoring students for almost all subjects offered in my school ranging from world history to calculus.

...my academic pursuits; I consider myself a lifelong learner, ALWAYS eager to ask questions about absolutely anything and everything. I mean, I know for sure my parents can attest to the fact there was no end in sight to the amount of "why?" questions I could ask them when I was younger! And even now :)!

...are interested in and goes from there. I try to think of problems and examples that students can relate to and that will benefit them as opposed to outdated and uninteresting examples. I will work as hard as the student, but as such I expect my students to work hard or else they will not see results.

...in ways that are customized to them, and not making them learn subjects in a robotic manner. Learning happens best when students become passionate themselves about subjects because someone clearly explains to them the relevance of what they are learning and how important it is to understand the topics at hand. I absolutely hone in on getting students to grasp the deeper meaning behind what they are learning so that they don't feel that they...
