Paulo Freire defined the ideal teacher as devoted to "scientific formation, ethical rectitude, respect for others, coherence, a capacity to live with and learn from what is different, and an ability to relate to others..." I take this Sophist approach with my classrooms. My objective is to equip students with the critical thinking skills necessary to make their own discoveries, reason out their own thoughts, discern right from wrong and true from erroneous. I want my students to grow into wel... Read more

I'm a recent graduate with an MS in physics (magna cum laude), and I also have a BS in physics with a minor in mathematics (summa cum laude), both from SUNY Albany. During my two years as a graduate student, I taught introductory physics labs to undergraduate students in both classroom and asynchronous/remote settings. All of my students were non-physics majors, which meant there was a wide range in pre-requisite experience; not to mention that a... Read more

I just graduated Magna Cum Laude from Loyola University Chicago--I was also granted Phi Beta Kappa status for my exemplary achievement in all of my classes. Given that I studied Philosophy and Psychology at a liberal arts college, I have had the chance to excel in many distinct areas of study, from history to Spanish to theology. Spanish was also my first language, and with extensive travel throughout Latin America, I have a good grasp not only on the subtle differences between dialects, bu... Read more

I have tutored courses in both philosophy and history during my four years at MCLA; moreover, I was also a teaching assistant for an upper level philosophy course. These experiences were incredible because they were an opportunity for me, not just a job. The one-on-one interaction between student and pupil were always fun due to the perspectives that were brought to the table. My qualifications for tutoring philosophy are not only a consequent of my degree in the discipline itself, but is... Read more
