Experience

I have been tutoring math for over ten years and am very good. I am flexible in the sense that I can help with understanding material, improving test taking skills, and organization. I am also very friendly and adapt my tutoring strategies based on what the child needs and any given learning style. I got a 163 on the GRE which is considered very good. (SAT to get into graduate school.)

Hobbies

I am a mentor to a high school boy and girl back in the USA. They are both very interested in math and science and I see a lot of potential in them. I love teaching students that are eager to learn, it is truly a passion of mine. If feel we all have a duty to give back and I am most effective at nurturing such interest and turning it into a life long adventure of learning and eventually acquiring advanced degrees. Growing up in the USA I was a competitive tennis player and loved playing board games with my friends. I have recently started playing soccer and enjoy learning about topics that interest me, usually science related. Back in California I was a surfer and had been surfing since I was 12. I got my first job at 13 babysitting two energetic boys which was a lot of fun.
