About Dylan

Hi, I'm Dylan! I've been tutoring in math and physics for six years. For two years, I worked at Mathnasium, a math learning center aimed at improving student performance by helping them understand and intuit math principles. Over the last three and a half years, I've been a volunteer for K-12 science communication as part of the Illinois Space Society, a student organization at the University of Illinois. I've also worked to develop an open course of amateur rocketry meant to increase K-12 interest in the aerospace industry. In my time as both a volunteer in education and a paid tutor, I've learned to teach students using a combination of visual aids and intuition to build a foundation of principles, which can then be used to approach more advanced topics. I've also developed the ability to explain concepts from different perspectives when they show to be particularly difficult to understand.
