I have been a private tutor since 2006, working with a range of students from grades 3+ in a variety of subjects from test prep and study skills, to history and government, to mathematics and the sciences. My students have enjoyed understanding concepts through problem solving, emphasizing understanding over rote memorization. Since moving up to the northeast, I have taught multiple levels of mathematics at the university level. I have experience in helping students keep up with their studies and well as designing plans to help students advance through material at an accelerated pace. My academic interests are in resource economics though I have training in mathematics, the natural sciences, and public policy. Through my interests in music, teaching, and research the most valuable skill I have learned is the ability to communicate material in a clear and approachable manner. Past students have remarked that my teaching style is animated and are surprised at their ability to focus and understand concepts even after a long day of school, practice, or work. When I am not teaching or grading papers, I can usually be found playing some brass instrument or another, umpiring baseball, trying out a new recipe in the kitchen, or spending far too much time on Netflix.
