Experience
Philosophy T.A. at UCSC Private tutoring experience in reading, algebra, and writing AP: English Writing-3, English Reading-5, Calculus AB-5, Calculus BC-3, Biology-3 SAT: Math-700, Reading-700, Writing-630 GRE: Verbal Analysis-165/170 (95th percentile), Quantitative Analysis-159/170 (75th percentile), Writing-6/6 (99th percentile) I want to be a tutor because I love teaching. I am currently applying to graduate schools for Education Policy for the next academic year, and would like to further develop my teaching experience until then. Teaching is the most rewarding work I have ever done. Seeing a student learn a new concept, master a new idea, understand something she had missed before and then apply it all to the next topic is an incredibly enriching experience.

Hobbies
I enjoy playing tennis, reading (particularly into the Greek classics right now when I'm not doing grad school prep), movies, music, and video games. I'm a fairly laid back tutor, but not in a sense of being lax. I believe that a comfortable and friendly environment coupled with high expectations and guidance on how to meet those expectations produces the best results.
