I am a firm believer that all students learn differently and identifying how each student best learns is essential to his/her academic success. Therefore, as a tutor, I aim to specifically tailor my teaching style to each student in order to help them maximize their potential. Outside of academics, I enjoy exercising, playing basketball, cooking, and attending concerts and other live performances in the Philadelphia area.

I'm a graduate of the University of Pittsburgh, with a degree in Mathematics, and a minor in Physics, and have a few years of experience tutoring in both of those fields.

My goal is never just to make students able to pass an exam, but to make them feel comfortable with the material. I like to spend my spare time at a local fencing c...More
