I am a mathematics tutor with a strong background in both advanced coursework and competitive mathematics. I am passionate about breaking down challenging problems and concepts into digestible, memorable ideas that students can confidently apply on their own. I believe that to truly learn mathematics, you must actively do mathematics. In my sessions, students work through many problems, develop intuition, and learn to ask the right questions rather than simply memorize procedures.
I have earned a 780 on the SAT Math section (99th percentile) and have participated in numerous mathematics competitions, including AMC, BAMO, CMC, and MathCounts. Academically, I completed Honors Pre-Calculus as a freshman in high school and recently completed Linear Algebra at Los Angeles Community College with a final grade of 97.26% as a senior in high school.
In addition to my own mathematical training, I have experience tutoring students through Kumon and private instruction. I have helped students achieve significant academic improvement, including raising a student's course grade from 76% to 89% within four weeks through targeted instruction, problem-solving practice, and consistent feedback.
Classes that I frequently assist with: Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra 2, Trig, Pre-Calculus, SAT Math section.
