There is no one way to learn. Rote memorization is at one end of the spectrum and instantaneous complete understanding and insight of the topic is at the other end. There is a lot in between. People do not learn everything the same way - their own ability to learn changes from moment to moment and subject to subject....See Theodore's full profile

***Currently full for consistent/weekly clients - but open for special exam/final sessions or to fill in occasionally Hi, my name is Lindsey, I am a 26 year old postdoctoral scholar at Stanford University.

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

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

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

This made me comfortable communicating with different people to address their specific needs.
