About Me

I'm studying to receive my Bachelor's in Math Education at Brigham Young University, but I was previously a Physics-Astronomy major. I discovered my love for teaching and tutoring as I helped my younger siblings with math and physics while I was in high school, which I continued to do using Skype after leaving for college. In college, I learned the value of working on homework in groups, and often explained concepts to others in the group, helping them understand the material for themselves rather than just giving them the answers. My favorite part about helping others learn is seeing their confidence in their abilities grow as the connections are made and as they are able to work through problems with limited assistance from me. By the time I've finished helping someone, I want them to have grasped the material, but also to have confidence and excitement at what they've achieved. I tend to tailor my teaching style to the person I'm working with, but generally have more of a discussion with the student rather lecture at them. I am passionate about enabling students with learning differences to succeed, as I have ADHD and depression myself, and have had to figure out how to make the school system work for me, while managing my mental health. My favorite subjects to tutor are math and physics, in large part because I find them fascinating, but also because most people find them harder, so it means more when they understand it. Outside of school, I love playing board games and card games and reading fantasy books.
