Kelsey has experience working with students of all ages and a wide range of subjects through her vast tutoring and editing background; she had worked as a lead tutor at a math-focused center for students ages 5 to 18,...

...correspondingly my favorite to tutor. When I'm not tutoring or studying, I'm pretty reliably involved in some way in one of three activities.

...with a very strong and traditional math background. I always find teaching math to students to be gratifying, and I hope to share some of my love for math with my students.

I continued to tutor throughout middle and high school as a 'homework helper' for kids with behavioral and developmental challenges, which required that I teach a range of subjects at various levels with personalized approaches for each student (ages 9-13). While in high school, I completed a challenging AP curriculum and tutored my peers in Biology, Psychology, English, Spanish, and Government at the AP level. As a junior/senior, I also helped...

...thus they reflect man's imperfect nature. The ability to analyze these concepts and creations with a mind for the why, the how, and the strengths and the weaknesses is invaluable. Analytical and critical thinking is something I will push for in all subjects that I tutor, including mathematics, as it is equally - if not more important there. I'm not always such a nerd though. I love action movies and video games the same as...

...a student's attitude when they finally begin to understand a subject is the most rewarding feeling, and I hope to help as many people as I can to feel confident in whatever problem or question is thrown at them.

...all my life. I have always enjoyed helping people learn how to do difficult problems in ways that make sense to them - not the way the book describes it. Almost everything that we learn is pretty easy when you boil it down, the real problem is that not everyone learns the way that the book or the teacher teaches it. So the first step is always to figure out how YOU learn, and we'll...
