Experience

I'm a PhD Enginnering student at Penn State with a B.S. in Mathematics. Like anyone in a PhD program, I've spent a lot of years in school at this point. During that time I've tutored a lot of people in Engineering and Math classes. One of the things I've learned during that time is that everyone learns differently. An analogy or picture might work for one student, and completely bewilder another. I think the key to helping students trying to explain something in various ways until I find an explanation that clicks for that particular student. I also strongly believe in drawing pictures to explain concepts and to help visualize problems. I've even developed a lecture series I gave at PSU on using different techniques to visualize Linear Algebra concepts. I'm looking forward to helping people achieve their academic goals!
