Experience
I went to BYU, where I earned a bachelor's degree in math in math education. I've had experience tutoring students from elementary school through high school, and I've helped members of my family with their educational needs. I love math, and geometry is my favorite because I'm very visual. I enjoy using drawing as a tool to explain math concepts to students. I also enjoy solving problems, and I try to instill problem-solving skills in my students. I believe calculus is an amazing topic, and I try to help students appreciate the power of calculus and how it relates so many things in our lives. Rather than give students answers, I like to guide them step-by-step using their preferred learning style to help them develop the ability to figure out problems on their own. There many ways in math to answer a problem, but there is always only one answer, so let students figure out problems in any way they prefer, which helps them better understand topics and retain information. When I have free time, I like to run, play volleyball, hike, bake desserts, do crafts, play the piano and violin, and watch movies.
