I'm a friendly tutor with experience teaching computer science and designing curricula. When teaching computer science concepts, I am big on drawing pictures and diagrams in order to explain things. I find that thinking about abstract concepts is easier with a concrete spatial representation right in front of me--perhaps you do too!

After teaching math full time for a few years, I will be working on going back to school to pursue a career in applied mathematics. That means I will have homework too!

...can be extrapolated to many of the graduate test prep tutoring work I do). Similarly, I don't teach what the answer to a particular LSAT question might be, but rather why it is so.

Just like counting to 100...

...specific testing strategies and tricks, but I ensure that at the heart of my tutoring is the academic material itself. A student who simply masters the strategies and tricks might do great on the SAT, but the student who understands the material will do great on the SAT and continue to do great in college. I have particular experience and expertise in tutoring math (of all levels) and SAT prep, but I also tutor for...

...Psychology. I would like to close this statement by adding that one of my favorite and most rewarding experiences was Volunteering in the Pediatric Acute Care Center at Doernbecher's Children's Hospital.

...another 4 years. At some point, I realized I preferred the operations piece of manufacturing and was promoted to the role of area manager of a titanium foundry, which is where I am today. Regarding my teaching philosophy, my favorite part about teaching/tutoring is seeing that "ahh-ha" moment. It's that look the student gets when the material clicks.

I believe students can be taught writing. Some teachers don't believe that, but...
