I'll begin with the fact that I really enjoy teaching mathematics and technical topics. I emphasize the comprehension and appreciation of the central concept of what is being covered. Too often the "idea" behind a method is glossed over, or omitted. Once this is understood, the machinery and tools needed to solve relevant problems become more accessible. Then of course, I work with the student to drill and master the steps involved in finding solutions. I have several years of experience teaching undergraduate math at the university level, both class instruction and small group and private tutoring sessions. I have also tutored individuals, including HS students. Teaching and learning is a collaborative effort, and I adopt ways of explanation, and pace, which are creative, respectful, and suit the student.
