I'm here to help you with science and math! I first began tutoring younger students in high school and stuck with it all the way through college. I've helped students with Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, and everything in between. My teaching philosophy is to take what you know and build on it. It's amazing what you can do with a few simple concepts.

Anyone can accomplish anything with enough practice and determination.

What might you do in a typical first session with a student?

Get to know their interests and learning style. If I can relate the problem to an area the student likes, it'll be easier to understand.

By inspiring a desire to understand the world around them.

By explaining it a different way and walking them through the problem step by step.

What strategies have you found to be most successful when you start to work with a student?

I establish a baseline to understand where the student is at and begin there. My philosophy is to take what you know and build on it.

How would you help a student get excited/engaged with a subject that they are struggling in?

Show how fun a subject can be once you understand what's going on.

I'd end every session with a quick quiz to evaluate the student's progress.

Start with simple concepts and build on them.

How do you evaluate a student's needs?

By first talking with them or their parents about what they expect out of the tutoring sessions.

A lot of practice problems and examples.
