Hi, I'm Sam, a sophomore at Vassar College double majoring in Math and Physics. I love working with numbers and the logic behind them, as well as applying them to real-world phenomena. I am also fluent in French (I am half-French), and strong in most STEM subjects. I have experience working with children at summer camps and as a teacher's assistant at religious school. I would like to help any and every student excel, and that one-on-one tutoring is one of the best ways to give students that extra push! Outside of the classroom, I love everything outdoors. I go rock climbing both in the gym near me and outside on longer trips over school breaks. I also go hiking and camping around Dutchess County whenever I find the time, and I am on the Vassar Ultimate Frisbee team. I have previously worked at a rock climbing gym as an instructor for beginners, and would love to tutor anyone who would like to learn! Across academics and athletics, I work hard to stay active while continuing my education, and I wish to bring a hard work ethic to the students I work with, tailoring my approach to each and every student’s specific learning style.
