(To clarify the differences between the American background education and British background education, Mathematics and Additional Mathematics are the combination of all Math classes, including but not limited to Algebra, Geometry, Finite Mathematics, Trigonometry, PreCalculus, and Calculus). I was helping my...See Jun's full profile

I just graduated with a math degree and have tutoring in a profession math center. See Shaina's full profile

The material used in Precalculus classes is essential math for more advanced topics like Calculus or Probability theory or Complex analysis, Linear Algebra or even Differential Geometry, etc. (it follows Algebra 1 and 2). Naturally it is impossible to avoid being good at the relevant syllabus if you hope to learn...See Sotirios's full profile

I know math really well, but more importantly, I know how to teach it really well. If you schedule a lesson with me, I guarantee you won't be disappointed.See Aaron's full profile

Tutoring is an act of observation. It succeeds where normal instruction fails because it is geared toward a student's particular strengths. My best experiences as a tutor have been with the students who needed me most, learning how they needed to learn. I have been a tutor in one setting or another since childhood....See Francesca's full profile

Much of my work with precalculus students has consisted of a thorough review of trigonometry, finite and infinite series and sequences, and analytic geometry. My approach is always to be sure that the basics are mastered before attempting more advanced topics (e.g., students need to have mastered the graphical...See Jeffrey's full profile

Sequences, series, limits, vectors, polar coordinates - these are many of the topics taught in pre-calculus that become the later foundation of calculus. The transition into calculus can be made so much easier if each topic in pre-calculus is mastered. See Theodore's full profile

Precalculus is the gateway to calculus. Function manipulation, using graphing software or calculators, polynomials with complex numbers, exponential and natural log functions, trigonometric functions, parametric equations, and matrices and systems of equations are involved subject matter, and can easily be...See Trevor's full profile

Pre-calculus is one of my favorite subjects to tutor. Calculus is my favorite type of math, but I've noticed that many students dread or even hate calculus. I believe this is because of a weak pre-calculus foundation. A strong pre-calculus foundation is crucial to understanding not just HOW to solve problems, but WHY...See Kevin's full profile
