Jack: Tacoma ASPIRE tutor
Certified ASPIRE Tutor in Tacoma, WA
...answer a question will answer just that-one question. Teaching to the concept will allow you to answer the question and all other questions that employ a similar strategy. I also advocate for showing work and repeating steps to synthesize the learning process after a problem has been solved. Outside of education, I'm a big fan of music and live concerts (I produce and perform live electronic music as a glorified hobby), Seattle culture, and cats.
