...living in New York City. I graduated from NYU - Tisch School of the Arts, receiving a degree in Drama with specializations in musical theatre and film. In the past, I've taught children from ages 3-18 in a range of subjects: drama, yoga, dance, music, voice/speech, and piano.

I have been studying Spanish since the 6th grade and have spent extensive periods of time abroad, which range from taking linguistics classes in Madrid to doing farm work in rural Mexico.

"Bring a man a...

I am currently involved in a project helping students from Indonesia learn engineering concepts and fundamentals using LEGOs. I enjoy tutoring students in all levels of mathematics and physics. As an engineer, I understand the need for young students to be scientifically literate and capable.

I grew up in Long Island, NY where I played Football and Baseball for most of my childhood. I then went to Fordham University where I earned my Bachelors Degree in Engineering Physics. While I was a student, I helped run a coffee house, which put on concerts several times a month. After graduation in 2011, I was hired by Photonics Industries International as a Laser Engineer. I still work there today, but now as a group Manager. We produce industrial grade solid-state lasers that are used in many applications. Most notably, many of our laser systems are used to process the glass and electronics used in many Apple and Samsung cellphones and other electronics. I have a passion for mathematics and sciences and I have been tutoring others ever since I was in high school. I believe that I can make positive contributions to any student's academic endeavors.

...I have taken many math and science courses and have 4 years of hands-on science lab experience. I love to explain science, especially biology, because I think it is exciting and has many applications in life. My tutoring style is to explain each step so that students learn why they are doing each particular part of the problem, and can apply that knowledge to other problems. I think understanding problems, not memorizing them, aids in...

Such abilities include: (i) Recognizing relevant issues and facts presented alongside irrelevant ones; (ii) Analyzing potential consequences of changes to complex systems in equilibrium, (iii) Distilling principles from one set of circumstances and understanding how, and when it is appropriate, to apply them to a different set; and (iv) Being able to clearly justify the basis for any conclusion made. It happens to be...

...my educational history and assume that I am an academic robot: all work and no fun. I can assure you, however, that this is far from true! I am a down-to-earth, outgoing, and trustworthy person, and though I have a concrete sense of professional conduct and responsibility, I have always found that building a rapport and a friendly relationship with clients leads to infinitely more success than a purely businesslike exchange. It is my goal...
