I am a first-year student at the University of California, San Diego, majoring in Biology with a specialization in Bioinformatics. Academically, I graduated high school with a 4.5 weighted GPA and received a score of 5 on both the AP Statistics and AP Calculus BC exams. In college, I have completed Calculus 3 and Linear Algebra, earning an A in both. Additionally, I achieved a perfect score on the math section of the SAT exam.
My tutoring experience spans approximately 1.5 years in an online, one-on-one setting. I have worked with students aged 13 to 17, as well as younger children in a volunteer capacity. My teaching style is student-centered and communicative, I encourage students to explain their thought process as they work through problems. This not only helps me assess their understanding but also creates opportunities to correct misunderstandings and introduce alternative methods or memory aids that can help solidify their comprehension.
I also volunteered with KidsWork, a nonprofit daycare and academic support center in Anaheim, where I helped students from kindergarten through 5th grade with their homework. This experience gave me the opportunity to work with a broad age range and adapt my approach to different learning styles and developmental stages.
Overall, my strong academic foundation, varied tutoring experiences, and adaptable teaching methods make me well-prepared to tutor students effectively across a range of math topics.
