Hobbies
To be honest, my favorite thing to do is tutoring math. When I'm bored, I ask my friends and family if they need any math help. I also like going on evening walks with my wife, hanging out with our 3 cats, and playing games with friends. Note: My rates range from $180 per hour to $240 per hour, based on tutoring subject matter, but those rates are negotiable.
