I graduated from San Jose State University with degrees in Philosophy/Religious Studies and Physics/Mathematics. Throughout college I tutored various math subjects, physics, and chemistry. After years in the business world I taught math with Denver Public Schools as a Blue Print Math Fellow. I am passionate about learning and helping others. Everyone has a different 'style' of learning so as a coach I need to grasp that and present each subject with a congruent style.

...now, while on leave from Med School, I am able to do what I love, because of those who helped me in the past. I first began tutoring seriously in college. I began with college algebra and moved on to science courses such as chemistry, genetics, and biology. I also tutored some remedial math and english courses. No jobs other than teaching and medicine bring me everything I want in a career. I love to...

...teaching, but also about learning. As a passionate learner, I try to interpret the world around me, be that math, science, or why my garden behaves differently in Colorado than my family's in Nebraska. Early on in life, I loved numbers, patterns, and the problem solving nature of my parents' careers. This led to me enjoying math, science and engineering and turning those interests into a potential career. Using my passion for these subjects, I...

...degrees in biology and psychology, I have spent my time going through the medical school application process. During the upcoming year, I hope to help tutor those still in school not only to keep on my toes academically, but to help those who may be struggling with various subjects throughout their academic careers. There is no better feeling than watching someone have a eureka moment of understanding, and I look forward to meeting and working...

...combine my two passions: math and helping people. Many people say that they aren't a "math person" but I would argue that's not that case. Everyone can understand math, but not everyone will understand it in the same way. My goal is to open student's minds up to math based on their way of thinking and learning style. When I'm not solving a math problem you can probably find me competing in sports or the...

...tutoring, I hope to share these insights and excitement for the subject while deepening conceptual understandings. The greatest metric of success in a tutoring session is being told that I was able to break down explanations from the student's class and reformulate them into a version that is compatible with their way of thinking. I aim to use my empathy and sensitivity to students' unique struggles and learning styles to teach concepts and problem-solving strategies...

I am a life-long learner with a strong passion for education. I work as a financial analyst for an EdTech company, but I have missed the ability to interact with students and teach some of my favorite subjects. I have previously tutored for Varsity Tutors and cannot wait to get engaged in tutoring again! I am available to tutor in a variety of levels of math, ranging from Algebra to Calculus, as well as Spanish.

I believe teaching should be "hands on" by involving the student through questions and promoting participation. One-on-one teaching especially should be less lecturing from the tutor and more input from the student. By using examples to clarify and solidify points, concepts can be fully understood and applied to other...
