...twisters; tore through the halls on madcap scavenger hunts; tossed frisbees over lunch breaks and after classes; and whaled on each other with foam swords and battle axes. (We also practiced English.) Eventually, one year turned into three. I finished my two-year Fulbright grant and spent one last year teaching English, cooking, and yoga at Aran Kindergartento a new bunch of lovable rascalsin Seoul.

During my time working at the Japanese Cultural Hour, an important goal was to introduce Japanese and American students, exchanging cultural and linguistic information,...

...as calculus and chemistry. While I enjoy tutoring students in all of the subjects I specialize in, I love tutoring students in physics (specifically, mechanics and waves).

My specialty in math is in helping students who struggle with the abstract nature of math to understand why the steps are the way they are, and in helping to improve the student's fluency with math vernacular. Because I come from a verbal background, I work especially...

I look forward to helping students work towards reaching their full potential. Yoroshiku onegaishimasu!
