...numbers and figuring out problems. I also like how math is very logical and that there is a process to determine every answer. When I am tutoring, I will work with the students to determine what they already know. Then I will explain the parts they don’t know or guide them into discovering how to work the problem. After that, I will provide examples or use similar problems to have them work it out themselves...

...to find a way to connect whatever I am reading to my own life, or, more importantly, to your life. Whenever we can make such a connection with the author, our reading becomes deeper and more relevant to our own lives. As for writing, this is an extension of one's thinking, so learning how to write with proficiency also means learning how to think with proficiency.

...for education continues when I am not at school teaching. I enjoy working with students one-on-one to help then master the content that they are working on. I thrive on coming up with different ways to help a struggling student succeed. Building relationships is another part of tutoring that I love. It is great to get to know more people and be able to see them grow in their knowledge and as people.

When there are gaps in the background knowledge, I help to fill those in. If you need to catch up on a class you're behind in, learn strategies for test-taking, or just have somebody else explain a concept you're not getting, I can help!

...My own version of combining my parents' wisdom as teachers comes out not only when I'm running a classroom, but also when I'm running a rehearsal as either a director or producer of theatrical work: "I'm your backstop; I won't let you embarrass yourself if I can help it." I've twice postponed play openings so that hardworking actors in my charge who weren't ready to be on public display (through no fault of their own)...
