...and enjoy using different approaches to help a student understand material. One of the most enjoyable things to me about teaching is the ability to give a student confidence in themselves by building upon their knowledge, providing them with problem solving skills, and ensuring their understanding of concepts. Education is a strong passion of mine, but I also enjoy traveling, cooking, snorkeling, reading, riding bicycles and playing tennis. Until a few years ago we also...

...the important thing is that you can move past those roadblocks. As a tutor, I try really hard to help students connect the material they are studying inside the classroom to their passions outside the classroom. Sometimes all that's needed to make the material "click" is seeing how it is relevant to their own lives. My personal interests include theatre (especially Shakespeare), reading and writing, arts and crafts, baking, and outdoor activities with my dog....

Since I graduated from UT Austin in 1988, I have realized that a teacher isn't what I do, it is what I am. Every person has the right to learn and understand what is being presented to them. If you don't understand it, my job is to find a way to bring it to you. By working together, I hope you can find the joy of mathematics that I have found. ... I would introduce myself,...

I have spent numerous summers counseling children from ages 7-16 (both male and female) and am extremely comfortable talking to and relating to this age group. I am a great tutor because I use analogy, mnemonics, and memorization tricks. I find the easiest way to reach an understanding that will "stick" in a student's brain is in terms of something they are already passionate about.

...subject content drills and exercises; and like a cheerleader, I excitedly celebrate every progressive effort towards their academic goal. Students - young and old - respond to my style because they want to successfully conquer their academic challenges themselves.
