Devin R.
New College of Florida
Trouble with Algebra or Precalculus? I succeeded in math, and you will too!
I’m Devin, and I’m here to boost your math scores! Inspired by the machinations of mad scientists in science fiction films and video games, I realized early on as a kid that I wanted to study science and math. A homeschooled child, I quickly took the reins to learn on my own and attended high school online through Florida virtual school. I self-studied for the PSAT exam, through which I won a National Merit Scholarship. A number of AP exams later, I attended New College of Florida, the honors college of Florida, where I worked as a teaching assistant for Genetics and General Chemistry. After earning my bachelor’s degree in biochemistry, I dove back into test prep. With a strong GRE score, I was accepted to the Computational Biology PhD program at the University of California Berkeley. There, I quickly realized that a life in the lab wasn’t for me. Instead, I decided to use my talent in the test center and the classroom to help others achieve their own academic success. As a homeschooler in college, I quickly realized how the typical classroom experience can fail students. I struggled to grasp new concepts through my instructors’ lectures. As they spoke on and on in front of the class, I would often have to give up on understanding what they were talking about. It was only after a lot of homework and one-on-one meetings with my instructors that I was able to succeed in those classes. That experience informs my approach to tutoring. I’m not going to talk at you while trudging through a presentation. We’re going to work problems together. I’m here to support and guide you, not lecture you. When you run into trouble, I’m going to pinpoint your difficulty and show you how to overcome it. We’ll keep going until you can solve these problems on your own. If you need more practice after a session, I’ll direct you to plenty of extra problems to polish your skills. You’re going to have the confidence to handle whatever a class throws at you next. Let’s get started!

Takor L.
University of Buea
Telecommunications Engineer, Mathematics, Algebra and Chemistry Tutor with 4 years+ of Experience.
Need help in school work, assignments or exam preparations (GCSE, IGCSE, SAT, PSAT, GRE, Algebra 1 & 2, AP Calculus, College )? Need me to teach Math to your little son or daughter? Want to improve your Geometry, Calculus, Trigonometry, Mechanics skills? Or want us to go over your curriculum for the coming school year? My name is Lucila Takor, and I’m a Math, Algebra and Chemistry tutor with 4+ years of experience. My goal as a tutor is to help my students get to their desired grade, score or level in math. A lot of my students study for exams (like SAT, GCSE, PSAT, AP courses), I teach a lot of secondary/middle school/high school Math. I also teach IB as it has a slightly different way of dealing with things. I teach beginners or graders (grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10...). I make sure I take my time to explain every step because this is where the foundation of math is laid and if it’s built wrongly that won’t be good as they go forward. I’m a native English speaker, but I do know some basics in French. Some of my students that find it a bit difficult to get fluent in English want me teaching in English so that they get to learn both English and Math or Algebra at the same time. For a point to note, I DON’T WRITE ONLINE EXAMS FOR STUDENTS. I help students to prepare for exams, and I make sure they get the most out of it, and my goal is to prepare them at point of 100/100 then the rest is left for them in the exam hall or maybe exam session. I teach some more courses like; English: If you need someone to talk to, in order to improve your grammar, I'm here for you Chemistry: Here I teach the beginners and the intermediate level, especially general chemistry, organic chem and IB chem. I use great tools like Idroo, which is an online board I share with my students; Go ahead and book a lesson with me lets get on this. Thank you. Hope to see you in class :)
