I have a passion for learning and for helping others to learn! Started teaching undergrad courses in 1991...began tutoring in 1999 and received a tutoring award from the University of Pennsylvania. I like to make hard subjects clear and easy to handle!... Usually it's part "get to know you." But then I ask them what is bothering them the most, and we start there. If we have to back up to review things, no problem; I am there to help. I try to remind students I am not their teacher or parent, and I am not judging them at all.

I am a very passionate learner and I would be delighted to share that love for learning to other students. My empathetic mindset, work ethic, and persistence for success is what I value most about myself and how it can positively impact others.... My philosophies behind teaching are that there is not a single method to learn a subject, but multiple approaches to learning it. My belief is that using all the resources acquirable will lead to a far more optimal learning experience. It will also reveal which methods are more suitable to the student. Finally, I believe that learning should never be rushed. It is far more important to have a firm basis for understanding and a thorough understanding so that building upon it can lead to a successful learning process.
