Classes I Teach:
I specialize in tutoring a range of subjects, including calculus, algebra, statistics, SAT Math, and chemistry. These subjects have always fascinated me, and I believe they form the foundation of many disciplines (including my own career!), enabling students to excel in various academic pursuits.

Professional Background:
With a Bachelor's of Science in Ocean Engineering from the United States Naval Academy and a Master's of Science in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Pennsylvania. Additionally, I have gained valuable experience as an analytics manager in the financial services industry. This diverse background allows me to bring a unique perspective to my tutoring sessions, bridging the gap between theoretical concepts and real-world applications.

Values and Philosophy Behind My Teaching:
My teaching philosophy revolves around fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment. I believe that every student has the potential to succeed and excel in their studies with the right guidance and approach. I strive to understand each student's unique learning style and adapt my teaching methods accordingly. I aim to instill not only subject-specific knowledge but also critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a lifelong passion for learning.

I strongly believe in the power of personalized attention, providing individualized support to address students' specific needs and challenges. By establishing a positive rapport with my students, I create a safe space where they can ask questions, explore concepts deeply, and develop confidence in their abilities. I encourage an interactive and collaborative learning experience, where students actively participate and develop their own understanding of the subject matter.

Something Fun and Personal:
In my free time, you'll often find me exploring the great outdoors of the Northeastern US mountains. As an ocean engineering graduate, I have a deep appreciation for the natural world, and I love to indulge in activities such as hiking, kayaking, and scuba diving. Nature not only provides a sense of tranquility but also serves as a wellspring of inspiration and creativity. I often draw parallels between the beauty of the natural world and the elegance of scientific concepts, weaving these connections into my teaching to make the learning experience more enjoyable and relatable.

By combining my passion for teaching, scientific expertise, and love for the outdoors, I strive to create a tutoring experience that not only helps students succeed academically but also fosters a sense of curiosity, wonder, and personal growth.
