From 2011 to 2017 I taught pre-calculus to linear algebra level math classes as a graduate student in math at the University of Nebraska. While there, I worked with students as an instructor, as a tutor in the Math Resource Center and as a private tutor. As an undergraduate I also tutored chemistry as a member of the honors fraternity for 4 years.

I enjoyed my time teaching and tutoring, and am excited for the opportunity to return to working with students as I am now 'only' a researcher. Helping motivated learners develop a deeper and broader understanding of the material they are studying through hands on instruction and guidance is extremely rewarding, and now that my wife and I are settled into the area, I look forward to getting to work with students again.

When working with a student I strive to ensure the student is not only developing specific subject knowledge, but good study habits and an ability to work independently. As such I find it critical to give students space to struggle, to encourage them as they do, and to help them understand how to use the other resources around them. I am very comfortable tutoring math and the core sciences (Bio, Chem, Phys).
