I have taught at the college level which involved a great deal of formal lecturing. I believe in engaging the students with real world examples and situations pertaining to the economic theory learned. It is critical to get feedback and engage discussion from the students to best assess the concepts that are understood and those concepts that need more attention. I continue to develop my teaching techniques as students learn by different methods, some who understand on the pure mathematical and theoretical level as well as those who learn more from discourse and real-world examples involving less math and formal scientific methods. I have received good feedback from my students who expressed that I put a great deal of care and effort into my teaching. I have taught both Micro and Macro Economics at Linfield College for one semester. I was a TA during my graduate work at Northeastern

Providing a positive, constructive and enthusiastic environment is foundational to the success of the student.

I am most familiar with conversation, as a means of relating information and testing understanding. I think that a through understanding in any subject comes about when a student can recognize the important concepts, and how they relate to each other, and speak those concepts in words which they understand--while gaining the vocabulary and proficiency as each subject demands. Most of all, I am an interested learner, in a variety of subjects, and I am excited to share my interest with others. I have a good sense of when I am being understood, and when I am not. I ask for questions, both so that I can explain myself, and so that that subject might be brought to greater depth. My undergraduate experience has given me both breadth and depth in academic subjects. The curriculum I've studied at St. John's includes 4 years of language (2 Ancient Greek, 2 French); 3 years of laboratory science (

I love helping people achieve dreams and goals. I practice what I preach and throughout my life I had to overcome obstacles to reach personal goals that I set for my self. I love being around children and considerate to every learning style. I know from experience that the best way to teach children is to fine tune the teaching style to the child’s learning style. This will help him connect each new curriculum and learn to use it in everyday life. My passion for numbers and formulas has taken me on an incredible journey. I graduated from Western Oregon University in 2007 with a BS in Business. From there I was able to have the opportunity to work as a Financial Accountant for the next 2.5 years.

My four years at Willamette University taught me to think critically and communicate well. I was expected to have an outstanding level of written communication skills and I honed these skills throughout my education, especially while researching and writing my senior thesis.

In my own experience, the key to learning has been to find a "critical link:" that is, to figure out an angle that makes sense to my brain. It is one thing to be exposed to a subject, and another to understand, remember and easily employ what is learned. Everybody thinks differently, so the key is to discuss and explore the topic with a student until you see that they've experienced that "aha" moment. This is why tutoring is so important, in my opinion. This is the core of the approach I take to tutoring my peers, presenting ideas to professors, and to teaching younger students. I received my Bachelors of Arts degree from Willamette University, where I majored in politics and minored in economics. I chose to work for a Bachelor's of Arts degree because it stresses a strong understanding of all subjects - this is the core of my approach to learning and education. During my senior year of
