Hello I am Margaret! I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Materials Science engineering from UCLA. I was fortunate to have several teachers who imbued the idea that learning was not just rote memorization of facts and formulas but actually an investigation into the ideas and principles that organize our lives and our universe. This is the approach I bring to tutoring. I find it allows students to feel less pressure and stress about the subject and replaces it with a genuine... Read more
