Gene
Big Bang Theory Nerd Seeks Students
Hello, my name is Gene. I would say that I am a bit of a closet nerd when it comes to learning new things. I love reading and studying obscure, arcane, and fun knowledge.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Economics and History, double major, from Northwestern University and was on the Dean's List all ... Read more

My approach requires working directly with studen... Read more
