Experience Summary
As a doctor of Biomathematics, I have a deep passion for mathematics and applied mathematics. From my undergraduate days as a math major at Columbia University, to the intensive research of my doctoral program, I have developed a finely tuned understanding of mathematics and the applications thereof.
I have taught college courses both independently and as an assistant for 9 years, and am very comfortable teaching any level of mathematics. I enjoy one-on-one work, and find this to be the best learning environment for many students.
Currently, I conduct part-time research and am hoping to expand my work as a private tutor of mathematics.
Teaching Style
My goal as a math tutor is to enhance my students’ understanding of mathematics. Often, classroom instruction alone is insufficient when it comes to learning complex subject matter. Some students might benefit from added practice, while others might need extra theoretical explanation. I aim to identify each student’s individual learning style and goals in order to develop a tutoring program to best serve them. My strongest skills as a tutor are patience, communication and a thorough understanding of subject material. I strive to use these skills to help my students achieve the success they are all capable of.
