I instinctively observe each student’s learning style, motivation and the way they think to help maximize the student’s strengths while improving upon their weaknesses. I enjoy helping students get to the ah-ha moment. The point where the student realizes that, "I can do this". Wether they hate the subject they are studing or if they are stuck on a concept, I am thrilled when the student discovers that this is possible.

As a current college student in University of Akron, I'm currently pursuing a degree in Actuarial Science. I have always been above the standarts in mathematics and since middle school I tutored for free for my friends. Now, I want to turn this into a part-time job to gain professional experience. All K-12 materials is still quite relevant and fresh in my mind. I can work with a variety of ages, from kindergarten all the way to seniors in high school. I welcome parent feedback and will alter my methods based on parental goals as well.
