I graduated from Oberlin College with...

...latter. I have also studied Literature, specifically post-modern American, British Renaissance, and Poetry throughout my IB high school and college years. I am very familiar with US and Comparative Government due to having worked as an outliner for the AP books. Teaching is a personal endeavor and a necessary passion in my particular field. On one hand, science is a small community and relies on personal, one-on-one apprenticeship in order to train the next generation...

My classes focused on allowing students to explore the world around them, and to ask their own questions, creating an open space where they could learn how to challenge themselves. Both schools at which I taught operated with rotating groups coming for three days therefore requiring me to remain flexible and to build rapport fast, skills essential to my success. I most enjoy...

...fan of Stanford's d.school, where the curriculum is all about the "design thinking" framework for creative problem solving pioneered by the international design firm IDEO. While typically used in startups to develop new innovations, I've found it extremely handy in tutoring.

In my experience, it's much more effective to...

...student with a major in philosophy and a minor in mathematics at the University of Washington, I was fortunate to be exposed to very different learning and teaching styles.

I always bring this insight to bear on tutoring, where I work together with...

Often all it takes is somebody to point out the similarity between that difficult subject you're struggling with and a concept that you already know and are strong in to click on that lightbulb of comprehension. My life's passion is to do just this: to make STEM (science, technology, engineering,...
