About Me

I am currently a philosophy student at Minneapolis Community and Technical College, majoring in philosophy, with much of my studies revolving around social justice and the cultivation of an equitable society for all. Often, I become an impromptu tutor in many of my classes, and due to the diverse learning environment at MCTC, I tutor students of various ages and backgrounds. Further, my experience in philosophy has led me to many discussion circles wherein a number of students, myself included, are working together towards a greater comprehension of a difficult text. These experiences have led me to a general teaching ethos of flexibility and adaptation. I believe the tutor should be working to meet the student on their level, and I take every opportunity I can to adapt my style of teaching to the individual's proficiencies. My favorite subjects to tutor are English, writing, college essays, ACT reading, ACT writing, and philosophy. When I'm not tutoring, I spend much of my time reading either for class, or self-educating within a number of subjects. Besides that, I do a lot of cooking and sewing.

Q&A with Ryan

I believe in adapting the teaching method to the individual, as there is no single form of teaching that is effective with every student. The tutor should, by definition, meet the student at their level of need, rather than using an inflexible and maladaptive tutoring style.
