...there are usually multiple ways to get there, so giving options and finding the method that works best for someone is also great. For fun I like going to movies as well as both computer and board (strategy) games. (I'm actually in the process of designing my own board game.) To show my worldliness, I should also mention that my father was in the military, so I've lived (internationally) in Italy for one year and...

I have an extensive history of sustained one-on-one engagement with students preparing dissertations, theses, semester-long projects and so forth, and am very comfortable with working with a single student over a longer period as they embark on other, similarly long-term journeys...

Given my affinity for problem solving, mathematics teaching, character development and building personal relationships, I am a great candidate to help you progress your learning and advance your thinking.

...I began to love tutoring and making light bulbs go off in students mathematical learning. I was a full time high school math teacher in Northern California for two years, but came to realise that I missed the individual attention that tutoring gives. Math is not an easy subject for many individuals, and with the new common core standards many students are seeing their math brains being stretched in multiple ways. I aim to break...

...as a few private middle schools. Mathematical proficiency is composed of two parts--procedural skill and logical reasoning.They are both important, since being quick and accurate with arithmetic can help one significantly with understanding the logical component of higher math. The best learning often comes with attempting a tough problem and discovering several approaches to solving it. Students that work through a problem until they "get stuck" are already learning a lot more than if they...

...enjoy other math topics like Calculus and Algebra, as well as writing and Psychology. I take a foundational approach to tutoring by focusing on the individual building blocks of a topic; I identify which of those building blocks a student is comfortable with and which we should work on together. Once those building blocks are established, we can more easily transition into the next levels of the topic. Most importantly, I work with a student...

...writing skills. I believe strongly that everyone has the talent needed to write and express themselves but that they need to learn how to structure and organize their writing so that their ideas can flow. For standardized testing I believe the most important factor in success is becoming comfortable with the test itself; learning the common ways the test makers misdirect a student’s attention and how to properly break down a problem. Outside of the...
