...approach new situations without hesitation. My students have statistically been the highest in the school both in their classroom tests and on their standard tests. I've had particular success with closing the gender gap for my classes. On average, boys do 12% better than girls on their standard tests in science and math, but in my classes, there was no gender gap. All students did significantly higher than their school wide and statewide peers. I...

I have worked successfully with dozens of students both in person and online.... I find it...

...is whether or not you can teach it to someone who may not be familiar with the subject matter. This a great challenge, but I enjoy it. I love to see the look on a person's face when they "get it."

I endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just plain cool,...

...a little over a year, I taught ESL in China. The experience was so wonderful I didn't want to leave it. However, I had an opportunity to teach in Japan, but the global pandemic closed that route. Regardless, I still seek to teach. Teaching is not only for the peer but for the instructor. Each student has troubles in various areas, but it is easy for me to point them out and teach them properly....

Helping students navigate through academics.

...I would often struggle understanding concepts because I had this attitude that things were "hard"; that that was just the way it was. As I learned to teach myself and my peers when we would study, I realized that these barriers many of us have are artificial and that understanding and applying difficult concepts, from reactions in organic chemistry to pragmatic analysis, is achievable. It's my job to help you realize your potential.

...the area of math because, as a middle school student myself, I often felt that math was just “confusing” and “too hard.” I never imagined that I would be a math teacher myself, but my own experience has helped me identify with my struggling students and help them to be CONFIDENT in their math skills! I understand that no matter what topic students are learning, they need to find it interesting in some way –...

...UCLA in June 2018 with a B.S. in Applied Mathematics. I can tutor a variety of subjects, but mathematics subjects and ACT/SAT prep are my specialty. My interests particularly lie in algebra and calculus based subjects. My ideology is that any student can learn anything; it's the job of the instructor to find the method that works best for the student. In my free time, I like to dance, skate, and watch and analyze films.
