Experience

I began tutoring in college while working toward my degrees. I tutored both college and high school students, and I helped students learn a wide range of Math courses, from Algebra to Calculus. I tutored one-on-one, in small groups, and online. I attended Washington State University, where I earned bachelor's degree in both Biotechnology and Mathematics, so I have a strong academic background in Math courses. Math is also difficult for many students, which is why I like helping people tackle this subject that often challenges students.I like to help students realize that Math problems are often not nearly as difficult when they approach the problems the right way. I often show them a simple Math problem with an easy answer, and I then explain the concept that helped us obtain the correct answer. I then present more complex Math problems that can be solved using the same method as the easier problem. This helps students by giving them a method of breaking down complex problems that can then use to solve difficult problems on their own. Aside from tutoring Math, I also like to help my students learn how to manage their time effectively, and to share test-taking tips with them. In my spare time, I like watching the Portland Trailblazers, playing a good game of basketball, and cooking.
