My goal is to facilitate high school and elementary school students' understanding of math and sciences and give them the tools to succeed in examinations. I like to keep my students engaged by making my sessions dynamic and interactive. I have many years of experience working with children and teenagers as a swim team coach and a swimming lessons instructor giving me great insight into the different ways that students learn.
