I'm a current second-year undergraduate student at MIT, planning to study Civil and Environmental Engineering. I've taken classes such as 18.01, 18.02, 18.03, 18.06, and 18.600 (In order, Single-Variable Calculus, Multivariable Calculus, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, and Probability and Random Variables).

I'm a current second-year undergraduate student at MIT, planning to study Civil and Environmental Engineering. I've taken classes such as 18.01, 18.02, 18.03, 18.06, and 18.600 (In order, Single-Variable Calculus, Multivariable Calculus, Differential Equations, Linear Algebra, and Probability and Random Variables). I graduated high school with a 4.3 GPA and a 1570 SAT score.
My tutoring style focuses on meeting the student where they're at - introducing new concepts by building off the student's current level of understanding, and filling gaps in that educational foundation. Furthermore, my style of teaching focuses on teaching the intuition and motivation behind concepts, as well as why those concepts are interesting and important, which I believe is one of the best ways of engaging students with a subject.
I've taught Algebra I students in the 9th grade in a school setting (in a public area on campus), formally hired by a parent before. Informally, I've also helped to explain concepts to peers in my classes, and I've also explained concepts that I found interesting from my classes to students from outside of my major. Overall, I believe these points also help to demonstrate my ability to work with students of different backgrounds.
