"I have always had a lifelong passion for learning. School was a place in which I excelled, but I felt like it was a cold place, one that values results of standardized tests rather than the enjoyment of the acquisition of knowledge. I graduated in the top 10% in my high school, I was an Honor's Student at Stony brook University where I graduated magna cum laude, and I continue my quest for understanding more...

"I have always had a lifelong passion for learning. School was a place in which I excelled, but I felt like it was a cold place, one that values results of standardized tests rather than the enjoyment of the acquisition of knowledge. I graduated in the top 10% in my high school, I was an Honor's Student at Stony brook University where I graduated magna cum laude, and I continue my quest for understanding the world around me every day, from reading textbooks in my spare time to listening to lectures.

This kind of energy and voracity for learning is sapped from students in schools that don't cater to the needs of each individual student, preferring to see them as a number, a statistic. I want to be able to encourage students to think about problems in different creative ways, to see how interesting learning about the world really can be, from History of all that has happened before, to the language of the universe in mathematics. I am equipped with a TESOL/TEFL/TESL certificate, but I am able to tutor more than English as a Second Language. I took math classes for fun in college, including calculus and linear algebra, I am excellent with English grammar and language, and any era in history can be explored and made interesting with the right attitude.

I am really enthusiastic about mathematics. I took classes for fun, not because I had to for my major, and I am a highly logical thinker. Mathematics amazes me in its ability to be able to predict natural phenomena around us, like a code to the universe. I can explain mathematics in a way that makes it accessible, interesting, and fun!

I am also certified to teach English as a foreign language, to non-native speakers. I am precise with grammar and I am familiar with the rules of the English language so I am more than happy to help anyone with difficulties in grammar, reading, punctuation, inflections, or comprehension.

If you want a tutor who is encouraging, enthusiastic, and energetic about the process of learning, let me know. I am available every week" less...
