...York. As an attorney who has lived and studied abroad, my teaching style is influenced by my broad experiences and big-picture mentality, understanding that students learn in different ways. I believe the most important thing in teaching is to frame the problem in a way that the student can understand what the bigger questions are, and to create their own frameworks to address issues without outside assistance. I also believe in encouraging consistent and efficient...

...writing, I love science, and I love math, and I love helping others succeed in these areas. This passion is all the more authentic due to my previous experience growing up as someone who faced learning difficulties in math and who entered the STEM field with a non-science background.

...a bachelor's degree in biochemistry and a minor in writing and rhetoric. I love helping other students enjoy what they are learning by providing support as a tutor! Students who struggle in their academics often just need a role model who can focus on their individual learning style and encourage them to utilize it -- which is who I try to be each day. My goal for my students is for them to see past...

...my experience, when a student "gets it," they are given confidence to continue to learn in that subject. The most exciting thing for me as an educator is to help students find excitement in what they are learning - a "cool" factor.

...give back to the world. It is through education that our eyes are opened, curiosity ignited, and our minds pushed farther than we imagined possible. I firmly believe in the capacity of every person to grow and learn. I also see and value the fact that we all have multiple intelligences and learning styles. What works for one person may not work for another. Also, we all have our own special blend of talents and...

...and passion with students. I have tutored students in Pre-K to college level math. I have found that most students who have struggled in math never built a strong foundation. They have struggled previously in a building block of a topic they are currently trying to master. I make sure my students understand and practice every concept before being bombarded with new information. My goal for my students is to show consistent progress with their...

...substituting in Brookline and long-term class coverage in Boston, as well as experience in private, non-essential education (teaching with Education First in Quito, Ecuador).
