Hello, I'm Terrence!

I received a 4.0 GPA and a Math Education degree from the U. of Kentucky in 2009. I graduated in 3.5 years, scored a perfect 800 on the Math portion of the GRE, worked as a Teacher's Assistant (TA) for Calculus I, and received the Kentucky Mathematician of the year award in 2008. (I am the sharpest spoon!) I also passed the first Actuary Exam (Probability).

I finished 2019 at the 99.96 percentile of Wzyant tutors. This made me one of the top 10 most active tutors on Wyzant out of a total of 17,575 tutors! Also, I spent 38% of my tutoring time doing all levels of Calculus.

From 2007 to '11, I owned and operated my own tutoring business full-time. I regularly tutored a wide variety of students, ranging from elementary schoolers to upperclassmen Engineering majors to personalized test prep (ACT, SAT, GRE).

I started tutoring online in 2015 (discovered Wyzant in October 2017), and I am genuinely obsessed.

My love for teaching/Math is genetic (Mother is retired Elementary teacher, Father is retired Math/Physics teacher, his Mother was a teacher/librarian), but it was accelerated when my loving parents arranged 1:1 advanced tutoring for me starting in first grade.

Because of my vast experience learning and teaching, I'm very confident I can help ANYONE quickly gain a MUCH better understanding of their Math material. Also, we may possibly have FUN!

A little about my life outside tutoring:

From 2011-'15, I worked in the solar energy industry (sales, project management, customer service). Although I love and respect the power of the Sun, I REALLY missed tutoring. Sales can be a dog-eat-dog world, and I missed the youthful and curious energy of students. (My favorite Einstein quote: 'I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.')

I'm extremely grateful to be tutoring again, and these 4 years provided me invaluable experience as a listener. (My wife, Lizzie, may disagree.)" less...
