Tutoring Approach:

My teaching methods include breaking down each question and finding patterns between questions so once you can solve a handful of them, you can pretty much solve any question thrown at you under that topic. I am able to explain concepts in a variety of different ways such that if one way doesn't work for one student, I always have another way to make sure the concept clicks (i.e visual representation, similarities to in life problems etc.) I am also an athlete so I understand what it's like to have to study on top of an already busy schedule. With this experience I apply it to my teaching in making what I teach concise and easy to understand.
