I am a recent graduate of the University of Washington, where I received my BA in Mathematics. I, also, devote a lot of my class work to computer science during my time at UW. As a math major, I know exactly how valuable a good tutor can be and have been exposed to many tutoring styles.
When it comes to tutoring, my personal philosophy is learning is meant to be engaging. If a student is having fun or has cultivated an interest in the subject matter, then they are far more willing to put in the time and effort necessary to understand the subject.
In my spare time, I like to read, write, and be a giant Star Wars nerd.
