Heather

My name is Heather and I'm a prospective Mathematics major at Princeton. I'm ecstatic to join the Princeton Tutoring team because I love to share my passion for intellectual pursuits with others and convey that learning can be a difficult and stressful albeit fun and transformative process. I'm particularly excited to tutor in mathematics in an effort to help students overcome their "math-phobia" and realize that mathematics is a fundamentally artistic, creative, and beautiful subject. I've presented research in mathematics at international and national science fairs and hope to eventually obtain a doctoral degree in the subject. On the opposite end of the spectrum, I am a passionate logophile (word-lover) and enjoy reading in my free time; my favorite authors are Edith Wharton, Jane Austen, and Malcolm Gladwell. Beyond academia, I amuse myself by swimming, going to plays, performances, and museums, and listening to Oldies music.
