Experience
At present, I'm a senior studying physics (major) and mathematics (minor) at Montclair State University. I'm also employed as a Jefferson Township Marching Band substitute instructor/teacher. I've worked with people ranging from kindergarten-age students to university-age students, and I've also had the opportunity to help special education students who tend to require more intensive teaching and tutoring. This requires patience, dedication, and persistence, all qualities I possess.I'm comfortable when it comes to tutoring in statistics, physics, trigonometry, calculus, and algebra. Of the aforementioned, I particularly like tutoring students who require help in physics, due to the fact that it is simpler to grasp ideas behind mathematics.Every time I tutor students, I watch out for gaps in their comprehension, and then seek to provide specialized instruction to help them learn what they lack. I endeavor to help students: one, work through issues and, two, figure out the answers without merely relying on memorization of formulas. I know numerous learning methodologies and understand various learning styles, which will help me to better meet the needs of students.In my downtime, I enjoy a number of recreational activities. For instance, I like to read, run, and indulge my passion as a percussionist.
