Fun Facts

I have a few thousand lines of poetry memorized. I've eaten durian, a notoriously gross fruit, four times or so. I once had gangrene in my gallbladder.

About Me

I'm a North California native and a passionate reader of everything related to history and literature I can find.

Experience

When my younger sister homeschooled for some time, I helped tutor her and keep her up to date with the material.

Approach

Firstly, I believe that my genuine passion for learning comes through when I’m speaking to a student. Secondly, I can break down concepts to make them more accessible, or change my approach when the approach I’m using is unsuitable for a particular student. Thirdly, I have a good memory for anecdotes, especially about the lives of important people; an interesting anecdote can enliven a lesson. Finally, I approach my subject matter with an irreverent sense of humor that appeals to many students.
