Fun Facts
I love swing dancing, basketball, tennis, singing (I sing Latin chants in my church's Schola Cantorum) running, and lifting weights. Next year I'll be captaining the CU swing dance team (the Jitterbuffs) in hopes of taking home a third consecutive Intercollegiate Swing Battle Championship.
About Me
I'm a senior at the University of Colorado Boulder; I'm studying Math, Philosophy, and Economics, and I'm shooting for a certificate in actuarial studies. I have a 3.99 GPA and I've been on the Dean's list every semester. As an RA last year, I learned to guide students through college with goal setting and mentorship, and to communicate with a diverse group of students. I'm working as an intern analyst at an insurance company this summer, but I promise I still have a personality.
Experience
Although I have little formal denver">tutoring experience, I've worked with my little brother, the residents on my floor, and classmates through their math, philosophy, and economics studies. During the school year, my brother and I would Skype for a few hours every week to work though his pre-calculus coursework. I've been a leader and a mentor in campus ministry, tennis, track and field, and (my favorite) swing dancing.
Approach
G.K. Chesterton said "It isn't that they can't see the solution. It is that they can't see the problem." The first, and often overlooked, step to solving a problem in any discipline is to understand the problem: the concepts involved, the tools we have to solve it, and the way an answer ought to look. I want my students to have a complete understanding of the concepts at hand: never should they stop asking questions just to avoid looking slow. No matter the pace, we'll achieve our goals.
