Mathematics Confidence Boosting Tutor

Julie P.

I believe that every student can succeed in Mathematics, and I will make you believe it too.

I have tutored many high school students, and even more college students, and I believe that confidence is often a student's biggest obstacle with math. I help students realize that they can succeed by helping them clearly understand any vague concepts with which they struggle. Then, as teaching is often the best way to learn, I ensure that they can explain all concepts back to me. Finally, to solidify the knowledge, we work on practice problem after practice problem until we know the material like the back of our hands.

I recently obtained my Master's degree of Mathematics at CSUN and completed my undergraduate degree at UCLA. I have tutored for more than 100 hours in the CSUN Math tutoring center and have helped many students understand concepts that had previously seemed foreign to them. I have been told by many students who do not study math that I made it seem relevant and coherent to them in ways that no one else had. I have worked with high school students who have improved their grades by a whole letter grade. I am determined to help every student succeed, or else I will not have done my job.
