Dear students and parents,
I am currently pursuing my master's degree at UCLA, where I continue to deepen my expertise in both mathematics and computer science. My academic journey began at UC Merced, where I earned my undergraduate degree in Computer Science and Engineering. During my time there, I worked as a Research Assistant in the Computer Science Department and served as an Instructional Learning Assistant in the Math Department. As a Learning Assistant, I supported undergraduate students by leading in-class discussions and holding office hours, primarily in Calculus, while collaborating closely with professors and peers to create a supportive and enriching learning environment.
Through this experience, I discovered that teaching is one of the most effective ways to master a subject. Helping students overcome challenges in Calculus, from derivatives to integrals and beyond, reinforced my belief in the power of clear communication and patient guidance. I've worked with a wide range of students, from those struggling with foundational concepts to those aiming for top grades, and I enjoy adapting my explanations and pacing to meet each student's needs. I also scored a perfect 5 on the AP Calculus AB and BC exams, which gives me valuable insight into how to help high school students succeed in those courses and perform well.
My emphasis on fostering understanding over memorization sets me apart as a tutor. I strive to create a learning space where students feel comfortable asking questions, exploring ideas, and making mistakes. I believe in using real-world examples, visual aids, and step-by-step problem-solving to help students build both confidence and competence in mathematics. My goal is not only to help students succeed in their current coursework but also to equip them with the skills to think critically and learn independently. I would be excited to support your learning journey with patience, enthusiasm, and a personalized approach.
