"I have experience tutoring in all high school level math and physics including AP courses as well many college math and physics classes. I also worked as an afterschool group-tutor for a middle school where I would teach and tutor students in algebra while fostering their curiosity for higher-level math. I helped a struggling first-year college student honors advanced math pass his class. I run a discord server where I have tutored students in many subjects.
I love tutoring math because I have asked many questions in my classes I feel to answer in return. I find it meaningful to share fundamental truths of problem-solving and analysis with others. I enjoy empowering others by showing them what they can do and how it relates to their interest and I take pride in seeing others be successful. I often reflect on my knowledge by challenging myself and confirming a true understanding. Sometimes I teach a modern/visual approach to a problem; sometimes traditional rigor is more appropriate but intuition is always key. My job is to make you feel as if you already knew math like it is so ingrained in nature, it is something you could never forget. I also received a maximum score on AP Calculus BC and the SAT Math 2 subject test.Physics is the closest thing we have to predicting the future. A typical physics question is in the form: given this information, what will happen? When confused we will start with fundamental concepts and the type of final answer you are looking for, then work backwards using physics relations until you get the information you are given. I am patient and constantly check to make sure the student understands the topic. I also received a maximum score on the AP Physics C Mechanics and E/M exam.
My job is not to tell you simple facts. It is to show you the power you have. I am here to motivate you and help you achieve what you want to achieve, take pride in your work, work smart, work hard, and never leave any questions behind so that you too, may have a solid understanding." less...
