Career Experience
In addition to passionately tutoring for Tutor.com, I currently work as a research specialist in hidden conformal representations of black holes, quantum information, and particle interactions (2020-current). Before switching to research full time, I taught a physics lab and worked as a university tutor for one year (2019-2020). Before that, I worked as a chef and a private tutor for a few years (2013-2019).
I Love Tutoring Because
students are often the best teachers of teachers, and I love learning! The satisfaction of helping someone overcome a problem is immediate and personally wonderful, but I feel especially lucky to be able to see how students (mis)-understand a problem they've never seen before because it lets me share ``first time" vision with my students. Everyone thinks differently, and truly listening to someone else's math is a great way to see the universe in a different way (that I would never be able to find on my own); it is incredible how often deep insights into the universe can be found by (mis-)understanding something "simple".
