Hobbies
Teaching is a big hobby for me! I am very patient, enthusiastic, and accustomed to working with beginners. Travelling, hiking, reading literature, discussing social/political/economic issues, soccer, riding bikes, learning Rates clarification: If the student meets on Pitt's campus (coffee shop or library), I will drop rate to $35/hour. If we work in two-hour blocks, I will also drop to $35/hour or $60 for two hours on campus. I can travel some but am not willing to go far from Bloomfield or Pitt's campus without raising the rate.
