Out side of academics I enjoy hiking and camping as well as painting and sculpting.

...a highly individualized endeavor. To that end, I will work with my students to create a plan specific to their goal.

I also hope to make the experience enjoyable too!... I believe that education...

...However; learning is a journey and sometimes it's hard to start that journey by yourself. Maybe years of coursework has worn you down and discouraged your once fiery passion to learn, but I hope to help you rediscover that passion. I'm currently an undergraduate student at the University of Rochester hoping to double major in Molecular Genetics & International Relations, on a premed track. I've been tutoring my younger sister (7 years my junior) since...

...to our sessions. I incorporate study skills and test taking stechniques into y tutoring sessions because it is important that students can use these skills in other subjects as well.

...learning. While memorization is important for certain things, I always appreciated understanding the "why" and "how" in school and I try to help my students achieve that level of understanding as well. I prefer to guide students through their problems to help them learn the skills needed for their classes in the future, though I am certainly happy to explain things outright when necessary.

In middle and high school, I was fortunate enough to have educators who taught math not as a regimen of drills and memorization, but as a process of thinking logically. They taught not exclusively through by-the-book lectures, but through anecdotes and idiosyncratic metaphors which may have amused my classmates and I, but also aided our memories and our reasoning skills. Through high school and...
