...in the past. I have found that for kids, especially in mathematics, relating to something they enjoy makes the experience more enjoyable.

...subject matter. Having come from Germany at the age of eleven, I know the frustration that can come with feeling overwhelmed by coursework. I performed well on standardized exams like the SHSAT and the SAT and can teach test-taking skills that will ultimately lead students to institutions like Stuyvesant H.S. and Columbia....

...everyone learns traditionally, and I like bringing in cultural and anecdotal connections when teaching to give my students a colorful backdrop to what they are learning. In my spare time, I enjoy going to museums in New York (The Met, The Brooklyn Museum, The Whitney Museum, and MoMA are some of my favorites, to name...

...love and interest for languages, and my goal is to encourage students to also embrace foreign languages, and hopefully ignite a spark for second-language learning all kinds of different people. Learning a second, third, or even fourth language can be an extremely fun and rewarding process, and I want to be a part of it!

...by building on their strengths. I think it's important to allow students time to think about problems and try to approach them on their own before giving them guidance so that they can develop confidence in their own ability to approach similar challenges independently.
