Sharon
CMU Engineering Graduate Student

- Pittsburgh , Pennsylvania ( 15224 )

I am not the type of student that can memorize math and move on to the next chapter. That is the reason I can teach students well. I explain the logic behind every concept so they can actually understand and apply the concept in various examples rather than simply memorizing it. I have taught math to students in various age range, from kindergarten to high school. I mostly taught Algebra and Calculus. I acquire biggest sense of accomplishment when I can tell that the student understood the co... Read more
