Introduction: I take pride not just in my knowledge of mathematics, but in my ability to make complicated concepts seem simple and straight-forward. I never settle for merely teaching the "how" of solving a problem. I believe that the "why" is even more important. I love tutoring because of the moment when a student fully comprehends the topic we are studying. After that moment, not only can the student do the problems and get the desired grade, but the student is also empowered to build on that understanding and thrive in their coursework.
