...I believe that learning is a journey and a skill best accompanied by a knowledgeable, patient, and understanding coach. I specialize in high school and college level mathematics, chemistry, and physics, as well as proofreading and editing papers and lab reports. I excel at providing multiple ways to approach a single problem, as well as giving real life examples of abstract concepts. (read more)
...I first studied Calculus at Columbia Heights High School, with a great teacher, Roger Sadlowsky. When we tackled a new concept, he made sure we knew what it was good for. I help Calculus students see the meaning of procedures, and keep it connected to real life applications. (read more)
...Even though I was known for guiding my students to good results on the AP and IB physics tests, that wasn't what mattered most to me. I wanted to share my excitement and love for math and physics. The most important results for me were seeing students get excited about physics, and start doing their own exploring. (read more)
...I believe that every student can be successful given the proper tools, time, and encouragement. My teaching style is aimed toward the student’s understanding and mastery of a concept. This most often involves working through actual examples (tests, homework, or made-up questions) with a student... (read more)
...My test scores in math include an 800 Math SAT II, 5 on AP Calc AB, 35 on ACT Math, and 750 on PSAT Math. During the 2022-23 schoolyear, I taught pre-algebra, algebra, and geometry in a classroom setting. For the past five years, I've aided middle and high-school students in mastering mathematics including pre-algebra, algebra, pre-calculus, and trigonometry. (read more)
