What I find most interesting about calculus is how it is in our everyday lives....

...Physics, general Essay Writing, Biochemistry, and Psychology. I personally enjoy tutoring SAT Critical Reading and Physics the most.

...in their success stories. After college, I spent one year in India on a Fulbright Fellowship teaching English to 6th to 8th grade students at a school for underserved girls. I struggled a lot as a teacher in this environment.

Foreign English programs can vary widel, but mine...

...elementary and middle school math, specifically pre-algebra, algebra, SHSAT, along with the basic concepts of math at those levels. Given the experience I had helping students prepare for Common Core State Exams or SHSAT, the students and I feel like we are solving a "detective case" with each math question in front of us, and I'd allow the students to be detectives looking for clues in the problem as that is what math involves; this...
