Hello, I am Yuanmin.

I graduated from UC Berkeley with a bachelor's degree in Environmental Science and from UC Davis with a Masters in Structural Engineering.

I am full-time tutoring on Wyzant and have been tutoring on Wyzant for 5 years now.
I had 2 years of experience teaching Special Education in Math at a local Bay Area school.

I am experienced in tutoring calculus, Statistics, Statistics with R, Engineering, R studio, Geometry, Algebra, Prealgebra, Precalculus, Calculus, General Chemistry, SAT, ACT, GMAT, GRE and CBEST Math, Engineering and Environmental Science. I also tutor many AP classes such as AP calculus, AP precalculus, AP chemistry, AP Statistics, AP science and AP Environmental Science.

I am experienced in scientific experiments design and data analysis because of my work experience at Children's Hospital Research Institute Oakland and during my time at UC Berkeley.

I also have experience working with different age groups; my students are from different age groups such as graduate school, college, high school, middle school and elementary school.

Goals I hope to reach for each lesson with my students:
1) My students can solve the problems after the lesson.
2) My students feel more prepared and confident about the course or the topic.
2) My students had a happy learning experience! I believe creating a pleasant learning experience is as important as other aspects of teaching.

Finally, I offer a free 15 minutes consultation if you need to meet to discuss specific topics you need help with.
If you are unsure if I can help you with certain topics or preparing for exams or questions about scheduling, please feel free to contact me.
I can be reached on Wyzant or through email: [email protected] or phone number: 341-242-6472.
Thank you!

Fun quote of the day:
Mathematician, William Thurston once said, "Mathematics is not about numbers, equations, computations, or algorithms: it is about understanding."

Reviews

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Yuanmin is a very professional and knowledgeable tutor. We have her for the 1st time to review the Advance Algebra materials for my son, who is a 10th grade in HS, and she is very detailed and organized. She can solve all problems easily and explain a very detail step by step instructions to solve the equations. My son learned a lot from her because she can explain the difficult things in a simple way for the students to understand it. She is a great tutor.

Great Tutor!

She is very professional and has a lot of patience. Explains in detail. I would recommend her if you are struggling with math problems.

Cynthia, 3 lessons with Yuanmin

Fantastic tutor

She consistently came to our sessions prepared and was always patient. Her explanations were always clear. She worked with me on every step and did not move on to another problem until I understood it thoroughly, regardless of how long it took. Yuanmin helped me to feel very confident in my knowledge, and succeed in Calculus.

Gabriel, 13 lessons with Yuanmin

Patient and knowledgeable

She was really nice and patient! On time and showed me how to do the step by step while also making sure I understood what I was doing. I would definitely tutor with her again!

Josephine , 3 lessons with Yuanmin

Clear explanation and very knowledge!

I needed help in preparation for my MBA statistics midterm at UC Davis and wanted to review a few of the midterm sample questions and a couple of homework questions. Yuanmin walked me through the answers and helped me understand the theory and rationale. I feel so much better now and ready for my exam.
