I'm passionate about good writing, and I love to work on students' reading and writing skills. When I'm...

...math problems or coming up with hilarious study mnemonics for upcoming tests. This past fall, I lived in Padua, Italy as an au pair for a family with a 6 year-old and an 8 year-old. I got to improve my Italian, drink delicious cappuccino with the other au pairs in the mornings while looking out over the beautiful piazzas, and travel all around Italy. I even went to the largest chocolate festival in all of...

My passion for languages shapes my preferred tutoring realm; I especially enjoy teaching others the languages I am familiar with and fluent in, which include English, German, Italian,...

...can be broken down into small steps and tackled bit by bit. This makes hard problems far less scary and produces steady reward for the solver. My role in your study will be to help you find the small components in a problem and tackle each one, and provide a patient voice of encouragement for you. If you practice solving any kind of problem this way, eventually you won't believe that you ever found any...

When I teach, I try not to lecture the student, but engage...

...myself, but my mother would sometimes work until ten or eleven o'clock at night. On these nights, I would simply pull together two leather chairs and doze off. The lab was really my second home. Gladly, I have matured from merely vapid admiration. These instruments are no longer my means of entertainment, but rather, the medium through which I complete my own research projects. I now appreciate the kinds of tasks that those machines are...

...engineering education. I rely on a Socratic, discussion-based method where I encourage my students to not only work through problems but to explain them back to me, to help build confidence in their own understanding of the material while cementing concepts in their minds. I also heavily emphasize developing intuition as opposed to rote memorization. If a student can learn the foundational ideas that underlie the sciences, they will be able to work their way...
