...the SAT, SSAT, AP Biology, AP Physics, and AP Chemistry for 2 years. I love teaching students HOW to learn, not just WHAT to learn. I always emphasize hard work - because you always get what you work for. I don't care about natural intelligence, because trying your best and being persistent is the key to learning and improvement. My favorite part of teaching is seeing the student understanding a concept for the first time.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading that which...

...program, I would often teach students whom I had never worked with before, and thus became adept at quickly discovering and implementing the strategies that worked best for a particular student (e.g., visual/tactile examples, analogies, and breaking down complex problems into smaller parts).

...am an avid grammar fan. I love writing, reading, and grading papers. I tested out of English in college, and I have submitted so many papers in all different formats over my time at Ohio State that I could not even begin to count them.
