Making math easy to grasp.

Ellis S.

I enjoy helping students who find mathematics particularly challenging. I have been teaching mathematics at El Camino College and West Los Angeles College. I am currently a Lecturer in Mathematics at CSUN. I have over twenty years teaching and tutoring experience. I earned a PhD in engineering from UCLA and an MS degree in Mathematics from CSUN. Students have complimented me on my unique perspective to explain difficult concepts so that they are easily understood.
Here are some recent student evaluations:
Differential Equations
• Ellis was clear to understand and was very prepared for each session.
Calculus III and Differential Equations
• Very knowledgeable on the content. Very eager and well prepared to help.
Calculus III
• Ellis was a great tutor for my Calc 3 course. It was my second time taking it and he truly helped me learn the material.
• His way of teaching is comprehensible and he takes significant effort to prepare for sessions and to ensure that students understand what they are learning.
• Ellis has a passion for math and that shows in his preparation and explanation of concepts.
College Algebra and Analytical Geometry
• Five Star but no writeup.
Precalculus
• Thank you so much! He is very patient and a great help!
