We look at science as something very elite, which only a few people can learn. That's just not true. You just have to start early and give kids a foundation. Kids live up, or down, to expectations - Mae Jemison

Teaching Style
My methodology and approach to tutoring
What is your teaching philosophy?
I believe that a teacher's job is to provide a warm, safe, and welcoming environment that promotes a love of learning and the development of skills, knowledge, and creativity.
What might you do in a typical first session with a student?
In a typical first session with a student, I will make time to learn more about him or her, create a quick pre-test to determine your student's strengths and shortcomings, and break down your lesson plan into smaller, easier-to-understand chunks.
