more than a tutor!
teaching math is my specialty
I focus on the process of learning math--how ideas connect and how students think--not just the steps needed to get the final answer
comprehension over memorization
I believe in learning concepts rather than memorizing formulas. When students understand the "why" behind math, results follow--both in class and especially on exams
student breakthroughs are the most rewarding part of my work

guiding students to those "it finally makes sense" moments is a source of genuine professional fulfillment for me
