...online and offline ever since I got my Bachelor's Degree, including during my time at JHU, in subjects ranging from basic arithmetic to differential equations. My teaching philosophy is "math is easy"; my goal is to make sure you understand why math is intuitive and natural, so that it's easy for you, too. In my spare time, I like to to solve math puzzles (yeah, I know I'm a nerd), play video games and board...

...of those courses. My teaching philosophy is basically that every student is a unique learner who brings different skills and challenges. Therefore, my first job as a tutor is to analyze each student's learning style, strengths, weaknesses, and motivations and tailor an individual growth plan for that student based on those findings. Tutoring, like teaching, is both art and science. My experience in working with thousands of students over the years has taught me crucial...

...is arguably the best way to hold a conversation. My favorite part of tutoring is helping students figure out who/what they're talking to - is it the teacher, an author, a memory, the whole world, or just themselves? - and decide what the best approach is for this audience. I get a great deal of satisfaction from watching someone learn to articulate themselves and effectively present ideas that automatically become bigger once shared; you can...

...with open arms. I began to learn Xhosa, which allowed us to share the role of teacher and student. My personal and professional experiences have shown me that education is the doorway, and community is the key. The best educators are not just ones who go to school and learn curriculum and strategies, but they are the ones who dig deep within themselves, build lasting relationships with their students and have a fundamental understanding that...

...middle school students in Cameroon (in French), and I also tutored middle school students in math and Spanish while I was in high school. I have spent the past year in study groups with my peers, and feel very comfortable explaining complex concepts step by step to students of all ages. I am happy to answer any questions about my experience or qualifications. I look forward to working together to achieve your academic goals!

Thanks to one-on-one help in middle and high school, I not only achieved stronger grades/test scores, but gained the confidence I will continue to use even beyond graduate school. I hope to give others the same invaluable tool set!... The ways I've always preferred to learn myself are typically the ways I teach. Once it seems like a student has a pretty strong understanding of a subject, I like to play competitive or timed games. It...

This includes: being patient with students as they work through problems in their own way, being resourceful and prepared in order to respond to students' questions as they arise, and being enthusiastic with the subject material so as to maintain the students' interest. With these traits and characteristics as the backbone of my teaching/tutoring philosophy, I have been, and believe I will continue to be, quite successful at helping students achieve...

...two research projects in college focused on math and music and math and sports. One of the reasons I love math is because it can be applied to almost anything. Showing students how math can be applied to the real world and how it can be useful in their own lives really helps students stay engaged with the course material. I personally think that any student can do well in their math class with the...

...I always want to be somewhere or do something that I have not yet achieved. I believe it is this drive that allows me to pursue my passions, both academically and socially, and to be successful in both. I find that my greatest happiness comes in the form of little victories such as a good grade on an exam, or making a friend laugh! Its because of this that I really slow down and try...
