Experience
Many people still see math as a boring class where students simply sit in class and do nothing other than trying to memorize mathematical concepts that have no real use in the real world. However, my experience was much different and that is what inspired me to enter the field of education. I was lucky enough to learn math through the process of logical thinking.I have been tutoring students throughout my academic career in high school and college. I was tutoring peers who were at my grade level, younger students, and even some of my adult neighbors. I used the teaching style that helped me, while making sure that I was tailoring it to suit the needs of the individual student. While in college, I had the chance to teach a full semester of algebra. I used idiosyncratic memory triggers throughout my lectures. All of my students were able to leave the class with grades that showed an increased understanding of math. I also completed an internship for teaching at a high school.Some of the subjects that I am well versed in include writing, literature, English, science, and essay editing.During my free time, I enjoy music, film, literature, theater, and education.
