...I have tutored students preparing for standardized tests, such as MCAT, DAT, GRE, GMAT, ACT, SAT, and various science/math based AP exams. I have tutored Calculus and more advanced mathematical subjects for over 25 years. I have tutored many high school students to 5's on the AP and college students to A's in the course. (read more)
...I focus on breaking down the concepts to smaller pieces to make them easy to absorb. Precalculus brings together several years worth of mathematical training and then adds even more. Greater mastery of rational functions and trigonometry is required, and then comes matrices and complex systems of equations. (read more)
...This course is designed to emphasize the study of the properties and applications of common geometric figures in two and three dimensions. It includes the study of transformations and right triangle trigonometry. Inductive and deductive thinking skills are used in problem solving situations, and applications to the real world are stressed. (read more)
...I also tutored undergraduate statistics at CSUN's math tutoring center. My patient, step-by-step, and conceptual teaching approach has helped students not only improve their grades but also conquer their fear in math. Because all students learn differently, I plan lessons based on each individual students' academic needs in math and their different learning styles. (read more)
