I am attending the University of Arizona to obtain my Bachelors of Science degree(s).I have tutored as a volunteer during my Senior year of high school and currently tutor as a part-time job at the University of Arizona. I enjoy tutoring in Math because there is only one answer (unless you are working with absolute values) and multiple ways to achieve that answer. So, if one method used to achieve the answer doesn't fit with your learning style there are other methods available. Usually when I tutor, I will ask questions in attempt to understand how much the student knows and where the "holes" in their learning are located. It's important to find these gaps because it enables me to understand what topics should be reviewed or emphasized. I also believe that asking questions encourages the student to think, which helps them make connections. The connections they make will help them in future situations because the students created these connections rather than merely being told information. I do not believe in simply giving out answers. I believe that memorizing answers do not help the student learn and that it actually hurts their learning. In math especially, the topics build on each other and so a strong foundation is necessary to be successful. Aside from tutor-y stuff: I enjoy learning (coding, guitar, random trivial facts, etc), watching tv shows (such as 2 broke girls, House, Rick and Morty, Pretty Little Liars, Stitchers, and Bob's Burgers just to name a few). I also enjoy drawing, painting, reading, sculpting, sleeping, eating and hanging out with friends.

Baking desserts, playing League of Legends, learning, playing guitar, drawing, sculpting, watching anime, watching tv shows, learning to code, working out, watching YouTube videos, cats, and more.
