High School Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Denver, CO

My approach to both physics and math is very concept oriented. I try to combat the 'shut up and calculate' approach that students often encounter in their schooling. Rather than expecting my students to quickly memorize and regurgitate information they barely understand, I expect students to actively engage with the material and to develop their own unique approach to problem solving.

Sometimes understanding takes time, but I firmly believe that developing a problem-solving strategy is more valuable long term than simply getting the 'right' answer to a specific problem. I have been teaching in one capacity or another for most of my life. In recent years, my focus has been private tutoring in physics and mathematics, but I have taught students

I am currently still in high school but I am in the top 10% of my graduating class at John F. Kennedy High School where I am taking 5 college level IB Diploma courses. I have volunteered for years at the elementary school in my neighborhood tutoring kids as well as helping my younger siblings and his friends.
