Anything from basic Arithmetic to Calculus 1
Growing up I struggled with reading and writing but I was great at math. My peers and "experts" said I didn't have the ability to make it in a normal classroom setting. If I didn't have people around to encourage and tutor me in my weaknesses, making it thus far would have felt insurmountable. Now as an adult and engineering major in college I'm very grateful for the people that helped me along the way. Now I'm looking to do the same that these people did for me. I want to use my strengths to... Read more

Autumn

As an artist I've always been fascinated with trying to grasp a deeper understanding of things by finding analogues to problems and gaining insight through that. The reason is i have something called Synesthesia, or a mixing of the senses. For me it just means i can see music inside my mind very vividly. This has helped me in a variety of ways in both my visual and musical art. That's what i mean by finding analogues. I try to get a hold of one things by maybe finding a similarity in another ...
