I have decades of experience teaching at Big Ten and private universities, including the flagship state university in Texas, currently. I have working experience in several industries from Chief Operating Officer to Chief Financial Officer and Chies Executive Officer roles. My teaching and real-world experience gives me a unique perspective when it comes to helping a student learn. I have also lectured on Wall Street in the CFA program and created e-Learning platforms and course content across Economics, Statistics, Accounting and all areas of Finance. My focus is always on my students - understanding how they learn and then tailor my instruction/help accordingly. I make things simple to understand with examples, analogies and relevant real-life anecdotes. I understand the challenges a student faces as I have successfully put four children through Big Ten and similar universities all the way to an MBA. They all work for major corporations with international experience.

I've worked as a tutor for about 8 years. I have a BS in Biology, BA in Political Science, and minors in Chemistry and Studio Arts. I'll be attending medical school in the fall.
I have a passion for learning and a joy in helping students to discover that math, science, history and literature are interesting and worth pursuing. My extensive experience tutoring math, science and standardized testing have prepared me for the role of connecting with students and encouraging that more natural instinct for acquiring and assimilating knowledge. I believe confidence in one's abilities is a fundamental tool for instilling interest and achieving success. My love of math and science, especially Calculus and Chemistry, has shown to be infectious and I love getting to share those subjects with students.My degree is a B.A. in Music from the University of Pittsburgh with a minor in electrical engineering. I have spent the past five years tutoring students from middle school to college aged.
I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh summa cum laude with a BS in Psychology. I have been tutoring with Varsity Tutors for over 5 years with over a hundred students. I'm excited to work with your student!
My educational experience includes a Bachelor's in Chemistry from King's College, a Master's in Chemistry from the University of Pittsburgh, and a Master's in Instruction Technology from Bloomsburg University.I've been tutoring and teaching since 1988. I love to work with students in the areas of Physics, Chemistry, and Math.My goal is to help students gain the skills they need to succeed in their courses. Most importantly, I want them to understand the subject, not just to know tricks for a particular test.Outside of work, I enjoy drawing and painting.
Hello! My name is Chloe, and I am an incoming senior at the University of Pittsburgh. I'm majoring in Health Services, with a focus in Community Assessment and a certificate in Global Health. I've been tutoring since I was in high school, and I really enjoy ensuring that students feel confident in what they are learning, and find a passion in learning. I feel that my strengths are in giving detailed explanations, and making sure the students feels comfortable answering any questions. I hope that we can work together!
My name is Max Adams, and I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a Bachelor's degree in History, with a concentration in Latin American Studies and minors in Portuguese; Luso-Brazilian Culture and Religious Studies. For over two years, I've served as a policy debate instructor with the Broome County Debate Alliance, where I teach students how to construct arguments, engage critically with opposing viewpoints, and research complex topics. I also specialize in tutoring AP English Language and Composition, AP Literature and Composition, U.S. Government and Politics, and academic writing. My areas of academic writing expertise include argumentative, persuasive, and comparative essays, among others. Drawing on my academic training and teaching experience, I help students navigate the writing process with clarity, confidence, and purpose. I'm passionate about fostering critical thinking and strong communication skills, and I often incorporate my interest in Brazilian social movement history to encourage students to think globally and engage deeply with any given material.
Strategy is something that is very important to me. In my free time, I enjoy activities and games which demand focus and forethought. While I was a student completing the IB diploma, a bachelor's in music and Russian literature, and a master's degree in historical musicology, I learned that each project and assignment requires planning and strategic forethought to achieve the best result. In my time teaching music theory and history in the classroom at the University of Pittsburgh, it translated to developing personalized lesson plans to find the most effective means of teaching for students. Individual attention and effective communication are vital for learning, and it is my position as a teacher and tutor to ensure that this happens. In addition to IB and AP music classes, I am available to tutor a wide variety of writing subjects including college essays and the IB extended essay as well as literature and reading comprehension at all grade levels. Additionally, I can help students prepare for the verbal component for the GRE. As such, I will develop a strategy that will best help each individual student with whom I will work. I look forward to being able to support and assist students for Varsity Tutors!
Hello! My name is David, and I'm a passionate educator with a B.S. in Neuroscience from the University of Pittsburgh and a recently completed Special Master's Program in Medical Sciences. I specialize in the sciences and standardized test prep, leveraging my own recent experiences with rigorous academic programs and the MCAT to guide my students. I believe that anyone can master difficult subjects with the right strategy, and I work closely with each student to develop personalized study systems that prioritize long-term understanding over short-term memorization.
I am a student at the University of Pittsburgh, where I am studying for a BA in Biology and German with a minor in Chemistry. I am also in NROTC, where upon graduation I will commission as a Naval Officer. Through my studies, I can closely relate to the academic struggles and fustrations one might have with learning and have difficulty understanding certain teachers/professors that tend to make topics more complicated than they already are, especially in STEM topics like biology. We all know doing school takes reslilience and discipline. I have finessed a way of how I can make learning more effective and more enjoyable based off my own experiences, as well as get you to your academic goals through repetition and postive encouragement. I have been commended by multiple people for friendliness, trustworthiness, and integrity. My knowledge and support is at your service.
Learning can be fun! :) I hope I can guide you, expand your knowledge, and mentor you through your journey. I have a Bachelor's in Communication and Rhetoric, with a Theater Minor and Interest in Business. I am currently taking Harvard Business online courses as prep before I apply for an MBA.
As an English and SAT Prep teacher at an urban high school, I've worked with students ranging from a first-grade reading level to a college-level. My goal is always to bring all of these students to the same level so that they can have the same opportunity for success. Any student can learn when you give them a chance.My inclination for intense differentiation allows me to work with students of any ability and push them toward writing and reading fluency.
Throughout my college career at the University of Pittsburgh, I found myself assisting peers and underclassmen with their coursework. With those experiences, I've learned to truly show one's propensity in a subject, you must be able to explain complex concepts in simple terms. My two degrees, Natural Science and History and Philosophy of Science, have given me the capacity to approach a variety of fields with an assortment of techniques. The diversity of my skillsets encourages me to help break down the challenges students face with challenging topics, meet students where they are, and facilitate their scholarship as needed.
Hello! I am a native of western Pennsylvania. This is where I grew up, attended high school, and began my college career. I completed my Bachelor of Arts at the University of Pittsburgh in 2011. I left Pittsburgh to attend the University of Chicago, from which I graduated in 2013. I stayed in Chicago to teach at the college level for 2.5 years, before returning to the Pittsburgh area. Underlying my academic experience is my passion for education. I am a first-generation college graduate (or as I like to call it, an "academic immigrant"). This means that I've learned on my own, and often the hard way, about the ins and outs of higher education, so I can understand how challenging - and truly rewarding - it can be. A solid education is as important today as ever, and it really can change your world for the better. I look forward to hearing from you and helping with your studies!
Hello! My name is Mark. I grew up in Pennsylvania and was a Biology major at the University of Pittsburgh where I graduated Summa cum Laude. In college, I tutored peers, was involved with a mentoring program in the sciences, and was a teaching assistant in Biology. Since graduating I've taught Chemistry and Biology labs, classical piano, and adult GED and ESL courses. In the past three years I have done test prep for the ACT and the GRE extensively, and know both tests inside and out.I'm easy going, mesh well with most anyone, and have been told I have a knack for making myself understood. I've had the chance to work with kids as young as five learning piano to adults late in life who just want to finish their high school education or learn English. I love the diversity and challenge that comes with working with a variety of human beings. I'm always looking to learn something new and I love nothing more than to pass my knowledge on to others.
Hello! I am an advanced economics, international studies, and film student at the University of Pittsburgh. I have over 5 years teaching and tutoring experience in mathematics, social studies, and dance. I have worked with kids of all ages and skillset. I am also equipped to work with students who experience academic challenges, such as learning disabilities and ADHD. I love working with children and helping them reach their full academic potential. As someone who had struggled in school when I was younger, I understand how stressful certain subjects can be. In my sessions, I will take a calm and supportive approach with students, and help build their confidence in their own academic abilities.
Come to me with a specific question you have in a subject, a more general or overarching problem you're experiencing in a class, or the will to get ahead in a class, and I promise you that together we will achieve your goals.Out of all the tutors out there, why should you pick me? Well, for the past five years, I have been a tutor in a wide range of capacities delivering my services to an even broader range of students. The experience I hold not only as a tutor but also as a regenerative-medicine lab member help to me take a problem and rip it apart until I find my solution. I will not only help you resolve any problem you are facing, but also provide you the skills so you can resolve all similar issues in the future on your own. I am not like other tutors. I will use common ground to help make our step-by-step process relatable, and from there I'll use examples, similar problems, analogies, and repetition to make sure that you can tutor other students in the specified problem-area.I look forward to meeting and working with you. ~Nish
Hello everyone! I became a VarsityTutor because I feel that teaching is an incredibly enriching experience - I think that seeing the progress of a student over time is so rewarding for me. I have a BS in Neuroscience, a BA in Religious Studies, and an MS in Biomedical Sciences from the University of Pittsburgh, so I have a lot of diverse experience in both STEM and humanities from my educational background. Currently, I'm a medical student! I worked in a math tutoring center in high school and college, and I have teaching experience in math from basics all the way through calculus. I have previously tutored math and reading for the SAT. I have taken calculus at the college level, and for several semesters in college, I served as a TA for general chemistry classes.
Hi everyone, my name is Michael. I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a Bachelor of Science degree in Computer Science. My tutoring strengths are in Mathematics, Computers, and Sciences. I am enthusiastic about teaching and have a background in instructing students of all ages. The pace is no issue, and if you're behind in school, I am willing to spend as much time as necessary to get you up to speed. I am very flexible with scheduling. Please come to me with any questions or concerns you might have. I look forward to meeting you!
Hi, I'm Savannah! I am just finishing the final semester of my undergraduate work at the University of Pittsburgh School of Education where I studied Applied Developmental Psychology. I will be starting my graduate program in the summer at the same school focusing on Instruction and Learning. I have always had a passion for teaching and learning that has been further developed during my time in the CASE program at Pitt where we focused on learning not only how to teach well but also how to serve the overlooked populations of our society through education. My underlying goal as an educator is to bring social change to my classroom, in the lives of the individual students, in the school culture as a whole, and ultimately somewhere within the greater education system. I want each of my students to know their worth and their value, to feel loved and respected, and to feel welcome and safe. I want to teach them how to read, but even more than that I want to teach them how to be successful and equip them with the tools necessary to achieve that success. My goal is to carry over this philosophy in my tutoring too!
I am a recent graduate from the University of Pittsburgh with Bachelor's degrees in both Mathematics and Finance. As the second oldest of six kids, I have spent most of my life helping siblings with homework and adapting to different academic comfort levels. I am passionate about education and math has always been my favorite subject. I believe that learning should be fun and that there are many ways to learn the same thing, it is all about finding what works for you! I have seen too many people think that math is not for them, but I thoroughly believe it can be accessible for everyone with the right help and understanding. I have tutored friends, family, and peers for the past nine years and have developed an appreciation for creative teaching from experiencing so many different learning styles. Calculus is my favorite discipline within math, and I very much enjoy providing specialized tutoring to support success in standardized tests such as the SAT and GMAT. In all subjects, I like to teach confidence and a calm approach to problem solving rather than memorizing facts or formulas. Outside of my academic pursuits, I enjoy cooking, exercising, playing basketball, and staying up to date on world events
I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh with a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering. For over 12 years, I have worked with students in both online and in-person settings, and I now specialize exclusively in SAT prep. I have tutored extensively in Pittsburgh and New York, leading both one-on-one sessions and group classes for students across a wide range of skill levels and academic backgrounds. In addition to live instruction, I create original SAT practice materials so students receive targeted support beyond our sessions. My approach focuses on building strong core understanding, improving test-taking strategy, and helping students approach the SAT with clarity and consistency. I tailor my teaching to each student’s learning style and needs, creating a focused, supportive environment that helps them make meaningful progress. My goal is not only to help students raise their scores, but also to help them develop stronger academic habits that serve them beyond the test.
I have received a BS in Cell and Molecular Biology with a minor in History from Grand Valley State University in Grand Rapids, MI. I am currently pursuing a MS in Infectious Disease and Microbiology with an emphasis in counter bioterrorism from the University of Pittsburgh. I first began tutoring a girl with cerebral palsy who was unable to write and worked with her for over ten years and watched her progress to writing letters to full sentences. I also helped her with simple math and reading abilities. In high school I was a part of the National Honor Society and for community service I volunteered at the local elementary school where I helped K-5 with spelling, phonics, reading, math, and science. Students of varying age groups would sit at one table and I would help each one individually, staying on my toes going from one subject to the next. In high school I was also the associate editor of our school news magazine for two years and I took several Advanced Placement classes- US History, European History, English Language and Composition, Biology, BC Calculus, and US Government and Politics. In high school I was also a TA for an AP government and politics class where I helped students with their work in class. At Grand Valley I tutored a young boy in reading for two years, grades 3-5. He was uninterested in the things they read at school, but loved history and bugs; so to improve his reading skills he would read encyclopedia entries about bugs or short history stories to me. I made sure he was enunciating correctly, sounding out words properly, and not skipping over words. I was also a TA for a microbiology lab class, there I taught students how to focus microscopes and assisted with experimental procedures.I have confidence in tutoring a wide range of subjects and ages because I love to learn and love helping others learn. Seeing someone struggle for so long and have them finally ‘get it’ is amazing to watch as their confidence grows and they blossom as a person. My favorite subjects to teach are History, Geography, Cell and Molecular Biology, and Microbiology. I find science in general a fascinating subject because I enjoy understanding how our world functions and how everything interacts. History I enjoy attempting to understand how certain events happened and how those events shaped the future. In general I enjoy understanding how something works at the basic level because I think it gives me a better understanding of things further down the line; whether that be understanding how a cell functions in an organism or how we pronounce certain letters to form a word.I think that the key to successful learning is making whatever subject you are studying relevant to you, or if you are tutoring making that subject interesting and applicable to the student. For example, you can use baseball metaphors in geometry if the student is interested in sports or the functions of a cell to working parts of an engine if the student enjoys cars. I understand that some students are auditory learners and work better with pneumonic devices, while others are visual learners and work best with concept maps or flashcards. It is critical to tailor my style to each student’s needs and interests in order to help them succeed. The way I explained multiplying decimals may not work the next week when I try to explain multiplying fractions, for example, I have to be malleable to the student’s needs.Outside of school and studying I enjoy hiking, nature photography, baking, cooking, and dancing. I also enjoy reading a wide variety of books including biographies, fiction, nonfiction, historical fiction, mystery, war, and romance. My favorite book is Child 44 by Tom Rob Smith because he wrote in such a way that was refreshing and the story line kept you guessing and actively engaged.
I am a graduate teaching fellow and PhD candidate in literary and cultural studies at Duquesne University in Pittsburgh, PA. As an instructor, researcher and student, I focus primarily on Victorian, transatlantic, fantasy and children's literature, although my research interests are even more varied and stretch to include gender, composition, modernist and animal studies. Although I spend part of my time at Duquesne continuing my education, my most rewarding experiences come from my time as an instructor and writing center consultant. I have spent the past year instructing first-year students in their core English classes, where I used both classic texts and young adult fiction to help engage all of my students. The students used these works of literature to untangle the relationship between fantasy and reality, while also honing their writing, critical thinking and research skills for their future classes and eventual careers. I also had the opportunity to work with faculty members, upper and lower classmen and ESL students in the campus' Writing Center. As a consultant, I helped clients to revise and proofread their work while also helping them to learn how to use the writing skills for themselves.Previous to my acceptance at Duquesne University, I earned my Master of Arts in critical and cultural studies at the University of Pittsburgh. As a student at Pitt, I worked as a graduate student researcher with the Learning Research and Development Center. At this prestigious institution, I had the opportunity to learn and gain exposure to the Center's plethora of educational research, in addition to acting as a teaching assistant, proofreader and researcher. While I completed my master's degree, I also worked with numerous students on the critical reading and writing portions of the SAT, although I also frequently worked with students on college entrance essays and classwork. I began my post-secondary education by completing my Bachelor of Arts in English with a secondary education certification at Saint Vincent College in Latrobe, PA. I also graduated magna cum laude and I earned minors in biology and psychology.Although my time in the PhD program gives me ample opportunities to both instruct and learn, I have found myself eager to use even more of my free time to share my love of knowledge with others and learn more along the way. I have a deep passion for knowledge and discovery and firmly believe that they hold the keys to success for all individuals. My enthusiasm and ability to adapt to different individuals' needs allow me to make a connection with all of my clients and help them to not only meet their goals, but to enjoy the process along the way. I enter into all of my client interactions with the goal that I will always bring about a positive effect, which I accomplish by personalizing the sessions for each and every client and working to empower each client with the skills necessary for success and not just the correct answers.I have always loved learning; however, I have many other interests that supplement my professional life. I am a devoted wife to my husband of almost a year and devoted mother to our two Siberian huskies, Isa and Bogie. As a family, we love to spend our free time traveling, sight-seeing, hiking and visiting our extended families. We particularly enjoy visiting museums that focus on Ancient Egypt, paleontology, natural history, WWII, the Titanic and the Victorian Era. We are also passionate about animals and make conservation a large part of our travels, especially by helping with zoo and aquarium education efforts. When I am not enjoying the company of my family though, I read anything and everything that I can and enjoy dancing and playing the violin. Finally, as a true Pittsburgher, I am always rooting on the Pittsburgh Penguins, Pirates and Steelers.
I am a current undergraduate student at the University of Pittsburgh, studying Political Science and Psychology with a minor in Spanish. I have ample experience in tutoring and working with children ranging from preschool to 12th grade. Through the Bev Hickman Writing Center at Catonsville High School, I received a full school year's worth of intense writing tutoring training, including AP essays, college applications, cover letters, resumes, and other class assignments. I have also gained experience in childcare through Trinity Summer Camp, where I worked as a counselor for ages 3.5 to 5 for 7 weeks; we focused on creating an enriching environment for education and fun, managing a wide array of behaviors and personalities.As of last semester, I am volunteering with Keep It Real at the University of Pittsburgh. This organization places college students in refugee/in-need communities to tutor students K-12. I am currently tutoring in the Northview Heights Somali-Bantu refugee community with elementary aged children.I have online tutoring experience winter of 2020-2021 through School Simplified, an all online platform to provide tutoring to middle and high school students worldwide.

In September 2014, I successfully completed an MA in Performance & Visual Practices from the University of Brighton, UK. From 2007-2013, I taught full time conversational English classes at a public middle school in Seoul, South Korea. While I am comfortable tutoring a range of subjects, I am most passionate about Critical & Cultural Theory, Creative & Critical Writing, Performance Studies, and Theatre. Any subjects or areas involving the arts and culture are of particular interest to me. Teaching is about sharing, so my personal style reflects my work and interests. I am a lifelong learner and view education as an opportunity through which to grow. In my free time, I love to read nonfiction, visit galleries, cook spicy Korean food for my friends, practice foreign languages, and travel.

I'm currently in a General Practice Residency in Washington, DC.During my undergraduate years, I accumulated 142 credits over eight semesters, all while participating in extracurricular activities and publishing my own children's book. I believe in strong time management and prioritizing and knowing when you have to ask for help. Most importantly, I believe in the importance of asking questions, because asking questions makes you a better learner!I am a proud lifetime Girl Scout, and during my collegiate years, I was involved with the marching band (I play the trumpet!) as well as president of our school's student-ambassador group. In addition, I was in a service sorority, a leadership fraternity, and I was on a full-tuition leadership co-curricular scholarship. There are learning opportunities all around us in every activity we participate in - so much of my learning has occurred outside of the classroom!I have been tutoring and helping my peers since high school. I have experience as a nanny and babysitter, and am comfortable working with young children as well as teenagers and college students! In dental school I served as a peer tutor during my second, third and fourth years and earned the Academic Career Track Area of Concentration Certificate.I love learning and want to share my passion with you. Math has been my favorite subject for my entire life, and my industrial engineering degree has given me so much math practice; I've earned As in calculus 1 and 2, probability, statistics, and differential equations in college! I am willing to talk with both the student and the parent so that we can team-build a successful learning space for each student. I want to be an effective teacher, and I will adapt accordingly to each student because no two students learn the same.
I have been tutoring since I was in high school in a variety of subjects and I have a great passion for helping others understand ideas. A love of teaching and learning has been with me for quite a few years and I look forward to teaching and learning. When I'm not tutoring, I like to play ultimate frisbee and ukelele.
As a current student at the University of Pittsburgh pursuing premedical education, I am deeply passionate about helping students achieve their academic goals. Throughout my own educational journey, I have relied on the guidance and support of tutors to navigate challenging subjects. This firsthand experience has shown me the profound impact a dedicated tutor can have on a student's understanding and success. During high school, I worked with younger students to help them acclimate to the high school environment, providing freelance tutoring in various subjects. This experience honed my ability to connect with students and tailor my approach to their individual needs. I continue to offer tutoring services, specializing in EMT, NREMT course and test preparation, and a range of math topics from basic arithmetic to SAT-level material. My teaching philosophy centers on the belief that each student should have a say in their learning process. I strive to understand and adapt to the learning methods that each student is accustomed to, ensuring a supportive and effective tutoring experience. Rather than imposing my own methods, I act as a resource, guiding students in a way that complements their preferred learning styles. Outside of academia, I have a passion for tennis, having participated in tournaments across New Jersey. Additionally, I volunteer as an EMT, which not only enriches my practical knowledge but also reinforces my commitment to helping others. I am excited to bring my enthusiasm for learning and my adaptable teaching style to help students reach their full potential.
I am currently a medical student at the Northwestern University Feinberg School ofMedicine. Prior to moving to Chicago, I graduated from the University of Pittsburgh witha BS in Neuroscience and minors in Chemistry and History. During my medical career, Ihope to teach, in addition to practicing in a clinical setting, as I served as a TA and tutorfor 3 years in college and get a lot of satisfaction out of helping students understandcomplex concepts. Although I have been successful in hard science classes throughoutmy education, I have struggled with the complex material and leaned on professors andpeers to help me understand. Thus, I believe that in order to truly understand somethingit's natural to struggle, otherwise you are simply memorizing which isn't helpful in thelong run. Because of this, I like to meet students where they are at and work with themto increase their understanding rather than lecturing at them. I do this by relatingabstract concepts to real life application. Biology lends itself to this type of application,which is why it's my favorite subject to tutor. However, I also enjoy tutoring students inBiochemistry, Chemistry, and all sections of the MCAT as well as the STEP 1 and STEP2 USMLE board exams. Outside of academia, I enjoy running, kayaking, biking,cooking, and spending time with my friends.
I have been a teacher for 40 years. It is my calling. I enjoy meeting new students and helping them achieve their goals.
I'm a Chemical Engineering graduate of the University of Pittsburgh (Class of 2021)mand received a full tuition merit scholarship to attend.

I realized how much I liked it, and I continued tutoring through college. My favorite subjects to tutor are Math, Chemistry, Spanish, and French.
I recently graduated from the University of Pittsburgh where I majored in Spanish and earned a Certificate in Latin American Studies. During my time at Pitt, I worked in the writing center within my department and helped many students with their writing and Spanish skills. The last two summers I spent time traveling through Ecuador and Bolivia conducting research that resulted in publication. I also gained significant writing and editing experience while working at a Latin American news website. I enjoy helping people especially as they are trying to learn a new language.
I am currently a student at the University of Pittsburgh! I originally hail from the DC area. I have been tutoring for about 2 years and have a lot of experience because my family has a huge teaching background. I am majoring in biochemistry and psychology but I love to write and read books! I love to tutor not only because I love to teach but also because I love to meet new people and help people lead happier lives.
I am a senior accounting student at The University of Pittsburgh and will be graduating in April. I have most of my tutoring experience in Accounting and Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is Financial Accounting, Intermediate Accounting, Pre-Algebra, Algebra, ACT math and Calculus. I have a very personable tutoring style as I believe that is most effective in learning. I enjoy listening to music, playing video games, fishing and hiking.
I am an undergraduate from the University of Pittsburgh with a degree in both Applied Mathematics and Economics.I worked at a start up website Expii that taught math, and I found I enjoyed it a lot. So I decided to get a more hands on approach by teaching math topics to anyone who needs help.My teaching style would focus more on solving problems with practice. I would have you show me how you solve problems and give you help along the way. I like to make things fun and will try my best to make any of the math as interesting as I can.
My name is Anameeka (Annu). I completed my high school education at Green Hope High School and the North Carolina School of Science and Mathematics. Currently, I am a freshman at the University of Pittsburgh looking to pursue the pre-med track as a Neuroscience major. In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis, playing the piano, writing, reading, listening to music, etc.Teaching is one of my favorite things to do. It is not only a way for me to reinforce my understanding of material, but also a way for me to give back to my community through collaboration and sharing of knowledge. A big reason for my love of teaching is my passion for understanding people's minds and their ways of thinking. I hope we can grow together! :)
