The benefits of life-long learning are immeasurable! In my spare time, I enjoy improvisational comedy, kickball, and experiencing local parks, festivals, farmers...

...high school, from private tutoring in Chemistry, Algebra, Statistics, and SAT prep to T.A. responsibilities and instructor training for undergraduate statistics as part of my graduate studies. I don't believe in a one-size-fits-all approach to teaching. The benefit of working with one student at a time is that I can help them understand what methods work best for them, and ground complex concepts in examples that apply to his/her own life to put the material...

...difficulties, and identify different approaches to teach topics is a skill I noticed from my own mentors and is now something I practice on a daily basis with my students. In addition to my strong understanding of mathematics, I believe these tools allow me to be an effective tutor. I am available to work at most 15 hours/week. Weekdays I would like to work with students in the late evening (available 7-10 p.m. EST), however...

When I'm not teaching or tutoring I like to jog, read, as well as keep up on the...

...rules and methodology to keep in mind are the foundation to any tough essay or analysis of a text. There are no such things as stupid mistakes; it's how we learn and usually, every student has a trend of them, and once they're determined, they are easy to solve. I will help and push the student to do his/her best, creating a very interactive environment, till he/she doesn't need the 'master' anymore. Nothing is impossible....

...at the University of Central Florida. I enjoy learning about space, history, and physics. I have always striven to attain knowledge for the sake of knowledge, and as a result I often found myself helping my peers with homework, projects, or understanding basic concepts in general. Understanding how things work is one of the best feelings in the world, but it's okay to not understand a concept or new piece of knowledge the first time:...

...school year. Before I knew it, I was tutoring her brother (3rd grade) and another one of my students. I really enjoy tutoring and working one-on-one with students to achieve their academic goals. I particularly like working with students in math, writing, grammar, reading, and phonics. In my experience, I have noticed that many students are lacking education in developing the basic skills that can help them in reading (identifying letter sounds/blending) and in math...

...where I may start with a student that is overwhelmed by simply choosing a topic and see that student get to a point where help is wanted only after he or she has finished the first draft. I am a firm believer that every student can learn as long as an interest is taken by the instructor. When an instructor cares, they want to make the subject enthralling and worth understanding. After that first "a-ha"...

...for College Readiness and many more. This past year I moved to Miami and have been the Math Coach in a middle school. Throughout my teaching career, I have tutored many students along the way.

...understood. I'm a writer by trade, and my job is to understand who a character is so I know why and how they do what they do. When I work with a student, I try to understand how they see things first; it helps me to see from their perspective, and it helps me to understand how to help them see from another perspective. Most students have the potential to do better than they are,...

...goals is one of the most satisfying feelings and greatest rewards you can have. Education may be a right of citizens, but it is also a privilege and should be taken advantage of, but not for granted. I enjoy what I do and I try to be the best at it.
