Through all of my experiences, I have continued...

...The Rebel Yell, UNLV's student newspaper. In the past I have tutored Spanish and Japanese language students, but I am actually most passionate about English and reading and would love more experience working with students to enfranchise them with the power of literacy. I derive happiness from seeing others grow and contributing to the lifelong process of education, so I find tutoring to be an appropriate outlet for this passion. In my free time, I...

...and incorporate these techniques into my unique tutoring style. My educational background incorporates many areas of mathematics including pre-algebra, algebra, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, and linear algebra. I have previous tutoring experience primarily in math; and understand the different ways in which students internalize and learn new concepts. My approach to tutoring focuses on the notion that teaching should be personalized to each students specific needs rather than generalized. Ultimately; I believe that mathematical and scientific...

...they need to SEE it ...I use lots of pictures and other visual aids, if they learn better by listening then I combine the visual with lots of descriptions, if they need to use their body and hands then we do lots of hands-on experiments:) I.. of course... take time to get to know your child on a personal level, develop a rapport and find out what motivates them:) This makes the best learning experiences...I...

...liked using numbers to quantify and interpret certain problems; strange to some I know.I will be glad to tutor anyone in courses that require math and/or economic reasoning. Asking why and how a problem is done instead of just asking for the answer is what I'm looking for in a student. I can be of assistance for the whole semester or just for a test coming up for the class. As long as we are...

I enjoy teaching and tutoring students to ensure that each student will achieve academic success. I believe that all students should have high expectations for themselves and by doing so, the learning experience will continue throughout their adult life.

...and inspire them based on their own interests. Students are not often addressed personally, or given the information relative to real life scenarios that answers their never ending question of, “Why do I need to know this?” My philosophy is to do more than educate, but illuminate on why things matter and how they relate to real life situations. Outside of tutoring, I love to read and play the guitar. I’m in a rockabilly band...
