Experienced Math Tutor

Lucas K.

I am a senior Aerospace Engineering student with a strong academic background in mathematics and physics, developed through rigorous university coursework and years of problem-solving experience. My studies have required mastery of math topics ranging from pre-algebra and algebra through calculus, differential equations, and linear algebra, as well as physics concepts including mechanics, electricity and magnetism, and applied problem solving. This foundation allows me to confidently tutor students at all levels, from those building core fundamentals to those tackling advanced high school or early college material.

I have experience tutoring students one-on-one in both math and physics, working with a wide range of ages and skill levels. My teaching approach focuses on identifying gaps in understanding, breaking complex ideas into clear, manageable steps, and adapting explanations to match each student’s learning style. Rather than just providing answers, I emphasize concept mastery and problem-solving strategies so students can work independently and feel prepared for exams and coursework.

Above all, I enjoy helping students grow their confidence in math and physics. Many students struggle not because they lack ability, but because they lack confidence or have had negative experiences with the subject. I aim to create a supportive, low-pressure learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. Seeing a student go from feeling overwhelmed to feeling capable and confident is the most rewarding part of tutoring for me.
