Tutor Information

About

SUMMER SALE: Since I am new to the TutorOcean platform and do not yet have any reviews on this site, I am running a great sale this summer: All lessons are only $15/hr. I have degrees in Mathematics (B.S. Cum Laude) and Physics (B.A. Cum Laude) and I have been tutoring college level and high school math subjects since 2006. I currently tutor all levels of Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus (high school; I and II; AP AB, and AP BC), Multivariable Calculus (i.e. Calculus 3), and Linear Algebra. I also occasionally tutor Ordinary Differential Equations, Probability, and Statistics. I received the Outstanding Service Award as Supplemental Instructor at the University of North Texas in 2007 and I won the military's "Who's your Favorite Tutor" contest in 2013 with another tutoring service. I know all the ins and outs of math problems. I love working with people and knowing that I've helped someone achieve real understanding of a subject. Oftentimes, students might struggle with an entire subject because they are missing prerequisite information on only a handful of topics, or even on only one concept; I can help you identity what's causing the problem and how to achieve mastery of that topic as easily and as efficiently as possible. I'll break down any math topic, problem, or solution method into its component parts, explain and describe how each part works, and help you work through examples and guide you step-by-step through the concepts and processes so that at the end of the lesson, you not only have the work completed, but have a solid understanding of the concepts and how to solve problems of this type in the future. I tutor exclusively online, and my schedule varies from week to week, but I am typically available most weeks M - Sa. Feel free to message me any time if you have any further questions or if you would like to schedule an online lesson.
