...(but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just plain cool, which I don't think our curricula prioritize enough. Besides teaching, I enjoy practicing parkour and tricking (acrobatic martial arts), playing video games, and reading fiction.

...goal is to help students become independent, comfortable, and confident in the fields they are studying. I love helping people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught. In my experience, one of the most important parts of tutoring is setting clear expectations at the beginning and working toward a common goal. Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the subjects I teach.

Ian: ACT Math course instructor
...as a algebra/geometry teacher with Teach For America. During my experience as a teacher and coach I have logged countless hours after school preparing students for the ACT and various math courses. In my free time I love to play soccer, basketball, hike, and go camping. I strongly believe that every child has the ability to do great things, and with our support and high expectations we can expect to see results.... My teaching philosophy is to remain patient, help students gain confidence, and knowing my student's learning styles. Every person does not learn the same way, so it's important to take the time to know your client and adjust the teaching to fit how the person learns best.
