About Me
My focus is on understanding human biological and social origins through analysis of human artifacts, biological remains, and environmental reconstruction, with a parallel interest in preservation strategies. Outside of academics, I'm passionate about all manner of developing sciences and technologies as well as current events and the history behind them. My job isn't to be a second lecturer, and the reason that I'm there is often that simple lecture isn't sufficient, so going for an approach that is personalized for the student is essential.
Hobbies & Interests
Natural history, futurology, hiking, science fiction.

Q&A with Jack
My job as a tutor is not to simply provide a second set of lectures on the material. Working one-on-one means that I have the opportunity to gain a deep understanding of how a student thinks through individual problems and concepts, and that understanding allows me to identify places in the thought process where I can make smaller clarifications rather than simply running through all of the material again. Ultimately, the ideal goal is to take conceptual patterns that a student is already comfortable with and apply them to the ideas at hand.
