...memorize. I love the applied stuff, where you get to use the equations you learn in projects you enjoy (the memorization comes naturally that way). That's why I believe programming and mathematics go hand in hand. You learn some math, and then make a program applying the principles, e.g. using partial differential equations to simulate...

...I love breaking down complex ideas into simple steps and finding different ways to explain concepts until something "clicks." I also enjoy helping younger students build foundational reading and vocabulary skills, especially those navigating English as a second language. My teaching style is flexible and student-centered.

...forward, as I believe having a solid grasp of fundamentals and prior concepts is essential in understanding new ideas in Maths. I've achieved a BS in Mathematics from the University of Alaska, Anchorage. In my opinion, mathematics is a series of puzzles where you simply need to find and use the correct tools to connect...

...It let's physicists predict the existence of stellar objects--like the prediction of black holes by Einstein in the early 1900s-- predict where our spaceship will land if we fire the rocket at this or that angle, or predict if and how it is possible to produce clean, near limitless energy in the form of cold...

...a certificate to work in clinical laboratories. I have traveled to Australia, Mexico, England, France, and Montserrat. I toured Europe with my choir and was also in a tour group playing violin. When I am not studying or tutoring I enjoy building computers, cooking, reading, sailing (small boats) and plan on getting back into ice...

...developed a passion for science and mathematics while at college. One instructor in particular fostered this passion by setting high expectations, providing every tool necessary for us to succeed, and sharing his own enthusiasm for the subject. I like to emulate this strategy with my own students leaving them excited and empowered to achieve their...

...reasoning abilities. In particular, I like to help students to understand how the subjects they are learning apply in the real world. For example, using statistical methods to predict how well a professional baseball team will perform, or how prime numbers can be used in modern day cryptography. I have found that the best way...

...career goals, then help guiding them to the right direction both academically and outside the school. It takes more than just getting good grades in order to maximize the students' potentials although grades and standardized test scores are the top two important factors that most of top ranking schools are looking for from the students....

...effective educators, anybody can learn anything. My tutoring style is to ask leading questions and offer hints to help my students make their own connections between what they already know and the new material they're tackling. I've found that people tend to be much smarter than they think they are. Often all it takes is...

...I considered becoming a teacher, though I eventually decided to spend my time learning the applied side of mathematics. I still, however, relish any opportunity to work with people, whether as a counselor, instructor, or colleague. I know I can be of value to anybody who wants to understand mathematics on a deeper level and...

...a new problem. While I am here to help students do better in their classes I am also here as a mentor for schooling in general. I am always willing to help out with students who need more help outside of their classes. If there is a non-academic issue that arises while tutoring I will...

...math, such as an elementary school teacher telling a student that they're "just bad at math" or "not smart enough" to do math can affect a person for years, and I am fully equipped to combat this. We will find different ways to look at a problem until we find the right method that matches...
