"I am a high school teacher in the Bay Area. I grew up in Illinois, and I have tutored students since I was an undergraduate student at the University of California, Berkeley. Now as a teacher, I strive to help students find passion in science and math.

Over the years, I have accumulated a number of credentials in science and math. I have an undergraduate degree in chemistry, I have taught high school chemistry, physics, and math, and I hold a Master of Arts in Teaching degree.

I have lots of experience working with students, and it is something I am truly passionate about. I believe that if students are struggling in a subject, it is often useful to return to the very basic fundamentals to cement the core of the subject and better understand how the problem fits into the larger matter at hand. This makes it easier to dive into the intricacies of the issue.

I have some time off in the summer and wanted to return to working with students one-on-one, either to help them recover information from last year, work on summer coursework, or get ahead for next year. I would also be open to continuing tutoring during the school year, with an adapted schedule to accommodate my teaching job." less...
