Duncan

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Human Geography. Since graduation, I have pursued a Master of Arts degree in Geography at the University of British Columbia, where I served as a teaching assistant for several college courses. After leaving beautiful British Columbia, I moved to Sofia, Bulgaria where I undertook independent research as a Fulbright grantee. When I completed the Fulbright fellowship, I stayed in Bulgaria for the summer, teaching Computer Science at a summer camp for high school students. While my formal studies have focused on geography and the other social sciences, I am passionate about a broad range of subjects including history, math, philosophy, and literature. When tutoring math in preparation for the SAT, I love witnessing the gestalt moment when students realize the solution to a problem. In my spare time, I enjoy reading literature and criticism, swimming and sailing, camping and hiking, and, when I can, travel.
