"I am very passionate about helping my students succeed in their specific course skills challenges, while also developing a positive and empowering sense about their academic accomplishments and overall confidence in learning. My philosophy is to first build communication through a sense of trust and empathy with my student, then demystify the topic by simplifying and explaining the needed steps and concepts in a personalized manner as I guide them in working through the technique. While I enjoy helping students at all levels of proficiency, I have refined my tutoring skills especially toward students who are struggling with grasping or learning a stats topic.
