...their understanding of physics. I love seeing my students have a "light-bulb" moment where suddenly everything we discussed makes sense to them. I think it is extremely important for everyone to have (at least) a basic understanding of math and science as this helps us to better understand our world. I am greatly motivated to...

...is over-focused on results. One of the biggest problems is that when we are focused solely on results or grades, students will fail to develop a love of learning. They will not be self-sufficient and seek knowledge for the rest of their lives, and need constant monitoring and prodding from teachers and administration. I seek...

...explanation. In most things, I'm not that guy! Like many students, understanding comes with repetition of principles and hard work. I have the perspective of a student trying to understand, not a teacher trying to preach. I love working with people from the ground up; we start at the comfort zone and work our way...

...confident in the fields they are studying. I love helping people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught.

...and mutual understanding with all those I come into contact with. With respect to teaching, I love the Spanish language and have gained that love through living 2 years in Chile and discovering the intricacies of the language. Then, studying Spanish at Brigham Young University and serving as an assistant teacher for those from Latin...

...to help others to do the same. I'm a neuroscience major at BYU and I love music in every aspect (dancing, singing, listening, playing instruments, composing, etc.) I have worked with students sporadically since 2011. I tutor especially in mathematics, the sciences, and spanish. I believe that everyone learns differently and I strive to figure...

...history, writing, and math. I am passionate about each of them for different reasons. History helps us identify bias, see cause and effect, think critically, and learn empathy.
