...Student in Condensed Matter Physics. I am currently working at an experimental physics lab at the University of Maryland, College Park. My tutoring style is pretty relaxed.

...use of primary texts and travel explorations has heightened my interest in these subjects. While I emphasize student-centered instruction (with ample opportunities for differentiation, modeling and scaffolding), I am also a firm believer in the inter-generational transmission of knowledge. Teachers/tutors/learning facilitators have just as much to learn from their students as the students do from them, especially as it relates to the use of new media technologies. All children can learn! All children are intelligent!...

...support students and provide "tricks of the trade" to help them crack the toughest test questions. I believe every student has the potential to learn and that the teaching/learning relationship requires 100% effort from the teacher and student. Because each student learns differently, it's important for educators to quickly learn their students' learning styles so they can adapt the material and the approach to best meet the students' needs. I teach with care and patience....
