"At Bucknell University I tutored Calculus 1 for 2 years. I would like to get back into tutoring now that I am in graduate school, and am looking for opportunities to help students particularly in math.

"At Bucknell University I tutored Calculus 1 for 2 years. I would like to get back into tutoring now that I am in graduate school, and am looking for opportunities to help students particularly in math. I don't have any experience as a TA, but I was a grading assistant in college and this also gave me further exposure when students came to me with questions about what they did wrong in their assignments.

Mathematics education is extremely important. All education is important, of course; however, there is a stigma surrounding mathematics. Why is it that many immediately shut down as soon as math is even brought up? Why this negative view of mathematics as "useless"? Mathematics is incredibly useful! Just ask any computer scientist, any Wall-Street professional, any economist, and statistician, etc... I find that this a failure of American culture as a whole. My wish is to show students how math is more than what they believe it to be, and to leave them with the ability to use a mathematical mindset to tackle a huge variety of problems.

I have had two years of experience tutoring college level Calculus. I majored in Mathematics at Bucknell University (top 50 liberal arts colleges in the US) and am currently obtaining a master's degree in statistics at Rutgers University. I have taken several courses in Advanced Calculus (known as Real Analysis in the academic circles), several courses in linear algebra, and statistics is my main field. I have had an advanced course in econometrics and experience in the Finance Industry as a Data Scientist. I use R constantly as a statistician and am also well-versed in Python.

If you are struggling with mathematics, please contact me. I particularly enjoy teaching the more advanced courses (Linear Algebra, Probability & Statistics, etc...) but I am willing to teach any level. If you would like to know more about my experience and my mathematical background I am happy to oblige." less...
