...with students to address educational gaps in structuring papers and arguments to assisting them with articles that are up for publication through various undergraduate journals. I love to study and tutor the areas of history, literature, and any field that deploys the use of critical analysis. I have noticed that students generally prefer to learn through a holistic approach that works to address not only their comprehension, but also their interest. I’m a huge fan...

...to succeed. I tailor lesson plans to different learning styles and abilities. With the extra attention I give, my students consistently tell me they have learned more than they ever thought possible for themselves.

I have flexible hours and diverse teaching and tutoring...

...University of Washington. At UW, I was a Pre-Med student, so I am very familiar with Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and other sciences. I also have spent the past few summers tutoring students in Reading and Writing and am able to help with everything from college essays and writing assignments to skills for standardized tests. I'm happy to work with a range of ages and will do my best to help make sessions as useful as...

...than they think they are. Often all it takes is somebody to point out the similarity between that difficult subject you're struggling with and a concept that you already know and are strong in to click on that lightbulb of comprehension. My life's passion is to do just this: to make STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) fields more accessible to more people, especially those who don't think they're up to the task. I am...

...the school system both tutoring and classroom teaching. In addition to the time spent in public schools, I spent the last two summers as a teaching intern at a prestigious independent school in New Hampshire and this fall I taught at an experiential education school in CO, where I mentored students on multiple two-week backpacking trips. It is my belief that learning math is a perfect context in which to learn creative problem solving. In...

...in my students, as independence is a crucial step to true understanding of subject material. I also try to teach concepts rather than questions, as being able to answer a question will answer just that-one question. Teaching to the concept will allow you to answer the question and all other questions that employ a similar strategy. I also advocate for showing work and repeating steps to synthesize the learning process after a problem has been...
