"I graduated from a community college with a math degree, having paid my own way with no loans or assistance. Upon graduation, I was offered a tutoring position on campus, and have worked there ever since -- more than 30 years and counting. Math is my lifelong love, so the chance to work in the field is like a dream come true. Most students comment on my patience and sense of humor. I've rewritten some formulas and methods to make memorization easier, and I like to toss in occasional bits of math history to help students better appreciate why it works and why we need it.
Pre-Algebra ! & II; Algebra I and II; Intermediate Algebra, Trigonometry; Pre-calculus as well Differential, Integral and Vector Calculus; Differential Equations; Linear Algebra; Statistics. Newtonian Physics (usually Physics I on most campuses). I can assist with the mathematics of Nursing courses, such as dosages and unit conversions.
Additionally, I am skilled at reading and composition. I have even been asked to assist with psychology and botany, though I make no promises about my skills in these courses.
Thank you for reading my profile! I have worked with financial aid students as well as students managing math anxiety, text anxiety, and even an unusual form of synesthesia (look it up!). I will always do my best to help you trust yourself, and teach you how to hold vast information in your memory, even if you think it's impossible. I have seen so many students overcome fear and doubt and go on to become happy, healthy and even wealthy that I am confident you can do it, too!" less...
