...I continued in the program and became the head math teacher, responsible for leading a class of over 25 students. I believe standardized testing unjustly favors those with the resources for extensive test prep. Thus, it was all the more rewarding to work with students who, otherwise, would not have had as much access to such services. I have also privately tutored high school students in physics, algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. Besides tutoring, I frequently...

...unique learning pathway my school offered its students. Enrolling in this pathway, known as Problem-Based Learning (PBL), allowed several students to digest the first two years of a standard medical school curriculum through a case-study, group-based approach. This novel learning pathway shifted the responsibility of education almost entirely to the students and signing up for this has proven to be one of the best decisions I've ever made. I always struggled with conventional educational approaches...
