I have 5+ years of tutoring experience in mathematics and I firmly believe that an inspired and energetic teacher is the difference between students saying "I can't do math", "I hate math" or "I'm not a math person" and acing their classes and having career options in STEM fields. At the time of writing, I am 3 months away from graduation from the University of Washington with a B.A in Mathematics. I have a 3.5 GPA and a proven track record of tackling one difficult math class after the other. In one quarter during my freshman year, I took 3 math classes simultaneously and received A’s in all of them.

What I love most about teaching is the opportunity to share my own passion for mathematics and overall intellectual engagement. I view mathematics as the foundation of the STEM fields and a pure basis for rational thought, and I think all students are missing out if they don't have a positive and rich mathematical experience of some kind. I also believe it is never too early or too late to learn anything in math, and am open minded in terms of who I teach. I want motivated students who have a desire to move toward excellence and passion.

I graduated college in 3 years, taking courses in single and multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, Abstract Algebra, Number Theory, Probability, Linear Optimization, and differential equations. I have a broad and deep understanding of mathematical thinking and how it applies to our world, and am proficient in Java and Python as well. I am currently taking courses to further my computer programming abilities. I am an ideal tutor because I meet students wherever they are at and try to send them where they want to go with their mathematical goals. I am a constant cheerleader of anyone pursuing stem education from any background and I believe there are no dumb questions. I look forward to working with you.
