Throughout my life, I have learned that passion and care...

...I was accepted to Harvard, Stanford, UC Berkeley, UPenn, and NYU Law Schools. I most enjoy tutoring subjects that are distinctively analytical, like the LSAT, philosophy, and logic. I think these subjects are a unique challenge to teach because students only develop the necessary skill if they are able critically think through the problems at hand. I thus do my best to guide my students thinking processes, rather than tell them the answers. I spend...

...consistent effort pays off after several weeks or months. My approach to tutoring centers around practice problems and working through problems. I also love pointing out resources to students in order to empower them to become individual learners. Tutoring is simply a supplement, in my opinion. I think the best tutors are able to walk through a problem with the student and show them in real-time their own thinking process. On a personal note, I...

...and a soldier in Iraq. I've seen and done a lot of things, and I'm not even 40 yet! But through everything I've done, I've always been a problem solver. This is what led me back to engineering after so walking so many other paths. I want to pass on my love problem solving in math and science. I'd also like to encourage more young people to gain general problem solving and logical thinking skills....

So lets chat about chemistry and math and soon...
