...choosing this major was my passion to learn more about the sciences and mathematics. I have loved math ever since I was a child, my parents started teaching me to use strictly mental math from age 4, and since then, math has always been my strongest subject.

When I was in 8th grade, I was struggling with pre-algebra (I couldn't seem to wrap my head around distance/rate/time problems). I found myself loathing a class I had once loved.

The best teachers are always trying to learn as well.... Get to...

My personal strength in communication has been as asset in all my tutoring. Everyone learns differently, and that's ok. I'm hoping to help...

...the 8th grade and currently writing, directing, and editing my own shorts, music videos, and documentaries. Even though I'm out of school for now, I'm eager to help younger students learn and succeed. Even though I'm a humanities gal, I love and miss math.

...philosophy. As important as efficient studying techniques are, being able to kick back and relax is just as crucial. When I am not working or studying, I like to unwind by playing sports with my friends (soccer has been one of my greatest passions since I was old enough to kick a ball), working out, playing video games online, or just kicking back and reading a good fantasy or sci-fi novel (one of my all-time...
