Experience
I have tutored on and off since my freshman year at St. Vincent College. I began tutoring my teammates, helping them pass their general mathematics and chemistry classes. Since then, I have mainly tutored high school students in mathematics and chemistry. I have always found tutoring rewarding as it allows me to help someone else realize their potential. There is a reward each time a student "gets it" and you see the light in their eyes. I am also extremely patient and understand that some people take to things easier than others. I do not believe that there is one, specific, way to teach. I try to incorporate visual aids, lecture, as well as hands on practice into any lesson or subject in order to ensure I've exhausted all avenues to attain understanding.

Hobbies
I'm a very high energy and active person. I compete in recreational sports (football, softball, and volleyball) as well as coach a high school lacrosse team. That being said, I understand the importance of rest and relaxation. During my times of rest I usually enjoy going for walks, reading, or going fishing. Not only is physical exercise important for the mind, body, and soul but mental exercise is also a key element which cannot be forgotten.
