...that puts students at ease. Fostering an environment for learning involves allowing students to experiment with new knowledge and understand its limits. Incorrect answers are just as important as correct ones, in their own ways. I provide students with a safe atmosphere to discover both. I like working with middle and high school students mostly because they get my humor by that age. Younger students are just as fun because everything is new for them,...

...In my spare time, I am an avid home cook and runner. I also love crossword puzzles and spicy food.

...in the Adult Education department at the College of Lake County. I helped adult community members to learn English and earn their GEDs.

...questions are answered and new ones are discovered. I have studied motivation in educational contexts and have held various teaching/mentoring roles. Having graduated 1st in my class with a Masters degree, I know what it takes to succeed in academic settings. It is effort, not innate ability, that makes people excel. I try to put forth this effort and learn in all areas of my life, including my hobbies like cooking, skiing, hiking, and reading.

...working in tutoring. One of my most enjoyable moments in undergrad was working as a Research Assistant at Semyung University in optimizing the instruction of curricula for incoming college freshmen. I believe in a problem based approach rather than a lecture based one. Most deficiencies in scores are caused by gaps in the student's knowledge. Through assessment, we can identify where these areas are and fill them so the student has an internally consistent view.

...tutoring Chemistry and Biology. While attaining my Bachelor’s Degree in Physiology from Seattle Pacific University, I worked as a college-level Chemistry tutor, Microbiology teaching assistant and a Homework Helper for Middle School Students.

...goal is to tap into my students' curiosity and show them how what they are studying gives them access to another world besides their own. I love to see students begin to use writing as a way to explore their thoughts and ideas. I also love to see the process of learning a new language at the early stages, which is often when a student begins to think critically about language for the first time....

...“why.” In my own learning I find I can grasp issues better by breaking them up into small, manageable steps and concepts, so this is what I strive for in helping others as well. I find this approach tends to lead to a deeper understanding so students are able to recognize and navigate similar topics in the future rather than merely the problem at hand. Along similar lines, I like to connect topics to the...

...especially mathematics. I find value in teaching students some of the logic and structures present in higher-level mathematics. These act as scaffolds when students are learning to understand why we can use the algorithms we do rather than simply plugging values in. Mathematics applies to every person's life and through effective pedagogical practices, my goal is to help grow problem-solving skills to aid success in the mathematics class, and hopefully a newfound love of math!
