...interests is exploring the world. My wife and I have traveled extensively, and I have been to all seven continents. We just returned from fulfilling a lifelong goal by living in Portugal for 2 years. We had always wanted to experience living in a different culture instead of just being a visitor. It was an incredibly enriching experience and one that I believe helps me be a better tutor. A successful tutor requires patience, understanding,...

...always helped my friends and my sisters with their schoolwork. I currently tutor English, computer science, and I can help with test prep.

...Micro-Economics and Macro-Economics. I have worked on topics such as inelasticity, supply/demand, dead weight loss, monopolies, and taxation. I am also an Algebra tutor because I have been studying for the GRE (which requires a fair bit of Algebra) and I have some math background as part of my Economics coursework. As an undergraduate, I was a Philosophy major and an Economics minor. I think both disciplines are incredibly important and each has provided me...

I am also a member of the University of Washington Drumline where I am the bass drum section...

...to me and I entered the academic training ground of graduate school having convinced myself that the life of a small college professor, including running a small research lab and teaching classes, would bring me the most satisfaction. During my time at Harvard, however, I saw that the realities of academic science conflicted with my earlier vision of life as an academic scientist. My time at a fast-paced research-focused institution highlighted those conflicts and has...

I most enjoy helping students with their writing skills, basic-intermediate math skills, college planning, and study/organization skills....

...love Math and have enjoyed teaching it to students who need help. I understand that Math can be complicated, and it is not something you get right away. I believe with practice and skill one can be better able to understand it. I know this because I also grew up not liking Math but ironically ended up teaching it. I believe you need to be patient and understand the student's strengths and weakness in order...

...ultimate goal is to aid in creating a life-time student. Especially in the ever-changing realm of science, it is vital to create a lifestyle that cultivates learning.

I want to serve as a resource for every student I tutor, where judgment and strife is absent, and...
