I have seventeen years of teaching at the University of Georgia and several local colleges different math subjects, such as algebra, precalculus, calculus, probability, statistics, differential equations, linear algebra. At the same time I was tutoring high school, University and college students. I earned a Master's degree in applied math (MA) from the University of Georgia and PhD in engineering. Having considerable experience of practical applications of the above listed mathematics as a researcher helps me to motivate the students.

Sincerely,
Vincent

Algebra 1

Algebra, at least in the it's very beginning, could be considered as a symbolic arithmetic. It uses the symbols from arithmetic such as +, -, >,<. Numbers in algebra are substituted by symbols also. This makes presentation of mathematical proves and rules much simpler than their formulation in words. The skills obtained by learning algebra are useful in common life. They also make it easy or even necessary for studying such subjects as trigonometry and calculus, physics and many others. It could... Read More

Calculus

Calculus is a basis for studying practically all other mathematical disciplines such as probability, statistics, differential equations. In essence, calculus is the study of processes and states on infinitesimal space and time intervals of the variable and parameters governing those processes and states. Considering them on the infinitesimal intervals simplifies their analysis and then permits obtaining the results for finite domains. Calculus is not very difficult, if you study it in a systematic...

Precalculus

Precalculus is the math course which prepares students for taking calculus. It is essentially review of high school math: algebra, including introduction of the notion of functions, and trigonometry. Often, as for example in UGA, the precalculus tests are computerized and include solving of different problems.
During my teaching precalculus I developed handouts for each lecture and the list of typical problems which I also handed out to my students at the very beginning of work on each topic... Read More

Trigonometry

Trigonometry is the science about triangles. It has very important practical applications permitting indirect measuring distances and angles. It also plays a big role in different mathematical applications. For this reason trigonometry is a part of precalculus. Factually trigonometry is pretty simple and its systematical study leads to deep understanding and mastering it very fast

Statistics

Statistics is the science of big numbers. It permits evaluating results of elections, demands for different goods, insurance premiums, etc. In science and industry statistics is used to organize effectively testing and quality control. According to Mark Twain “there exist lie, awful lie and statistics.” To prevent this from happening the user should understand concepts and methods of statistics which actually are not too complicated.
I used statistical methods in my practices as hydrogeologist,... Read More

SAT Math

The main condition for successful passing the math section of SAT is to understanding the problems The next is fast orientation and selection of tools for solving them For example, consider the following problem: In the sequence 55 176 539 1628 each terms after the first is determined by multiplying x and adding y. If x and y greater than zero and are integers, what does term x+ y equal?
If you read the problem attentively and understand that it is about writing and solving a simple system... Read More

Probability

Probability is the science about chances. It appeared several centuries ago as an attempt to evaluate chances to win or to lose in the games in which unpredictable events happen as for example in card games. Now theory of probability became en element about any research in business,commerce,industry, medicine, pharmacology, and so on. It is the basis for statistics. The correct formulation of statistical investigations and interpretation of their results are impossible without understanding theory... Read More

Chess

When I played active chess my highest rating reached about 2000. Later I coached chess in Athens schools and gave individual lessons.
The teams of Clark County high and middle schools which I coached became champions of Georgia, one of my private student won championship of Georgia among students of high schools.

Russian

Russian is my native language. And I am giving private lessons on it from the time I arrived in this country. My lessons start with teaching my students to read Russian texts and then step by step they accumulate words, their use and pertinent grammar. Since my American students have problems with pronunciation some Russian words I developed a method which permits them to master pronunciation of those words very quickly. As soon as the students get vocabulary the lessons turn into conversation... Read More

Differential Equations

I have been working with ordinary and partial and differential equations during all my professional life as an applied geophysicist and modeler in the field of hydrogeology and environmental protection. I also taught them to students of applied geophysics and hydrogeology in two Russian Universities.

Linear Algebra

Linear algebra is one of the most often applied tool for solving many and diverse applied problem analytically or numerically. I used it all my professional life. I also was tutoring privately students in Russia and in this country. My experience in practical application of the linear algebra methods to different problems helps me to motivate my students.
