Dartmouth Undergrad Specializing in Physics, Math and SAT Prep

Jack B.

Algebra 1

I've taken extensive math courses through my time in high school and college such as AP Calc AB/BC, Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and others. Algebra is a fundamental building block to all of these classes, so I have extensive experience with it. I've also tutored Algebra to multiple students for two years where they improved their grade in the class.

Algebra 2

In high school, I’ve taken Precalculus (Contemporary Math IV at my H.S.) in 9th grade, then Calculus I, II, & III, AP Statistics where I received all “A’s”. I took AP Calc AB, AP Calc BC & AP Statistics exams where I received “5’s” in all three. I graduated Valedictorian of my class of 513 and was 2023 National Merit Scholarship Finalist. I've also specifically tutored Algebra 1 & 2 to dozens of students for three years. I was invited to become a tutor at Schoolhouse.world (created/operated by Khan Academy) two years ago, I am now a senior tutor where I tutor math (all), physics, college essays and applications. I also review tutoring sessions from other Schoolhouse tutors to provide feedback and encourage best practices. Lastly, I’m a qualified Educator at Khan Academy (have been on the platform since I was 6, I’m currently 18). This is important since being an Educator on Khan I’m able to use the platform to create a 1:1 classroom for my students. Here I’m able to determine where students are at by providing them specific Course Challenges, to determine their strengths & weaknesses in each target subject. From this I’m able to assign specific units to strengthen areas of weakness through combinations of world class videos (many by Sal Khan) and exercises (with explanations, if wrong) to achieve mastery of the unit/topic. I then review their progress and when I meet with them I go over specific challenges they had to gain understanding, then assign the next set/level of assignments to pursue to move toward being successful in their goal(s). There is no extra cost for utilizing my access as an Educator on Khan, but IMO this is an invaluable resource that dramatically increases successful outcomes. I’m also able to include parental access to see engagement and progress in real-time.

Calculus

In high school, I’ve taken Calculus I, II, & III, AP Statistics where I received all “A’s”. I took AP Calc AB, AP Calc BC & AP Statistics exams where I received “5’s” in all three. I graduated Valedictorian of my class of 513 and was 2023 National Merit Scholarship Finalist. At Dartmouth, I've taken Differential Equations and Functions of a Complex Variable courses receiving “A’s” in both (which extensively use Calculus). I’m currently taking Partial Differential Equations. I've also specifically tutored Calculus (I, II & III) to students for three years. I was invited to become a tutor at Schoolhouse.world (created/operated by Khan Academy) two years ago, I am now a senior tutor where I tutor math (all), physics, college essays and applications.

Physics

In high school, I took both AP Physics C: Mechanics and AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism, where I got A's in the course and 5's on the AP exams. Since then, I've taken physics courses in college including the Honors Introductory sequence (Mechanics and E&M again), a course on Modern Physics (Special Relativity, Quantum Phenomena) and Quantum States of Matter, where I've earned A's in each course. I've also tutored Physics to many students over the past three years. I graduated Valedictorian of my class of 513 and was 2023 National Merit Scholarship Finalist. I was invited to become a tutor at Schoolhouse.world (created/operated by Khan Academy) two years ago, I am now a senior tutor where I tutor math (all), physics, college essays and applications.

PSAT

I’ve taken the SAT (including the PSAT) eight times with a score of 1570 (800 Math, 770 RW) on my SAT. In high school, I graduated Valedictorian of my class of 513 and was 2023 National Merit Scholarship Finalist. I've also tutored PSAT/SAT exams to dozens of students for three years through both Schoolhouse (please see below) and online/in-person.

I've taken extensive math courses through my time in high school and college such as AP Calc AB/BC, Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, and others. Trigonometry is used in a majority of these classes, so I have experience with it. I've also tutored Trigonometry to multiple students for two years.
