Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First, I have to learn what the student understands and what skills he has mastered, as well as gain a general idea of his learning style and abilities. Then, as we become better acquainted, I challenge him to reach beyond his perceived limits.
My pedagogical approach is Platonic: rather than expound, I lead the student to understand by answering questions. The ideas he doesn't know or understand, I try to explain using examples which are concrete enough for him to understand. (To avoid misunderstandings: I use the pronoun "he" inclusively, in the sense accepted in English since well before the time of Chaucer.)
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
You may refer to my resume which includes a Master's in Math Education and a Bachelor's in Math and English from the University of Pennsylvania.
