I am a Ph.D. researcher in Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences at UCLA, with extensive teaching experience across both the Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences and the Department of Physics. I have served as a Teaching Assistant (TA) for various university-level courses, including calculus-based physics and climate dynamics. I have also served as a course lecturer, designing and delivering full lecture content to undergraduate students. My academic background combines physics, mathematics, and Earth system sciences, and I scored in the 99th percentile on the GRE Quantitative section, demonstrating my strong foundation in advanced math and problem-solving.
In addition to my university teaching, I’ve worked one-on-one with high school students, helping them improve their math performance—especially in calculus and algebra. I specialize in breaking down difficult concepts into intuitive steps, tailoring explanations to each student’s pace and learning style. My teaching philosophy emphasizes clarity, confidence-building, and long-term understanding rather than memorization. I’m also bilingual in English and Mandarin, and happy to offer tutoring in either language. Whether you're looking for support in college-level STEM courses or preparing for standardized exams, I bring both deep subject expertise and a supportive, patient approach that helps students grow.
