When I am not reading, writing, or tutoring, I enjoy playing jazz piano, doing...

...college, I sought opportunities to mentor individuals; I found these opportunities both through the organic chemistry department as a weekly tutor, and through the athletic department. Specifically with my Division I cross-country team, I noticed that membership in our program did not require a community service component.

Working in this setting gave me a much bigger appreciation for what is commonly referred to as "the big...

Because of this, we were referred to as 鈥減eer teachers鈥� rather than 鈥渢utors鈥� because we reinforced the information that was taught in class. In addition to tutoring, I also volunteered around the...

...love math, but my favorite part of teaching was the students, most of whom despised math. I realized it was just because they didn't understand and/or didn't have the confidence in themselves to excel in it.

I...

...II students through a group called Peer Led Team Learning (PLTL). The PLTL philosophy engages students to fully understand the steps in how to critically think of a problem.
