I am always looking for new ways to help people learn. My greatest strengths when it comes to tutoring are that I have a unique perspective; I love to think outside the box and find new ways to help students of different backgrounds and learning styles learn! I am also very passionate about learning and helping others learn. I often focus on enrichment in my tutor sessions, by boosting the confidence of my students and motivating them to do well.

I am a retired computer professional with a degree in philosophy. My interest in ancient philosophy led to my study of Greek and Latin as an undergrad. Also my philosophy degree required logic. Since college I have had two hobbies, Latin and Logic. I have a passion for both these subjects and look forward to tutoring you in them.

I am in the process of completing my second Masters at Metropolitan State University in St.Paul/Minneapolis, MN in Urban Education. My thesis connects White Privilege to my teaching.

I am very patient with people. I understand that some people take longer to understand things and sometimes it helps to explain a point in a different way.

I am seeking fellowship as an actuary. I have always enjoyed helping my peers in classes with unclear teaching methods, which led me to tutor at a young age in my K-12 school, then in college. The cumulative nature of math poses challenges to many students, and I like to find ways to connect the dots to help my students have a better grasp of difficult concepts. While I have tutored a variety of subjects, such as math, economics, chemistry, finance, and linguistics, I now focus on tutoring math,...More

I am unsure exactly what I want to study, I will likely explore Public Policy, Political Science, and Symbolic Systems. I also graduated from the University of Minnesota Talented Youth Math Program (UMTMYP) in 10th grade where I studied up through Linear Algebra and Multivariable Calculus. With a teacher for a mother, I have been raised appreciating and understanding the value of education. I love tutoring and have been doing it for many years. I started a tutoring program at an inner-city chart...More

I'm starting to get tired of jogging and biking for exercise, then BAM--it's cross-country ski season! In my spare time, I also enjoy knitting, video editing, and playing games like Codenames (fueled by my fondness for words/language, I guess!)

I am very much a visual learner. I like to teach with visuals and with examples. I'm not the kind of person who can learn by memorization. I like to teach by understanding why the little components are important to the whole subject.
