Algebra 1,

Algebra 1

Algebra is the basis for any higher level math class. I have a Masters in Mathematics, so I am well versed in using Algebra in the theoretical world. As a technical business person with an undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering, I used algebra in everyday business settings including product design, quality assurance, strategic planning and business statistics on a routine basis. I know I can help you understand Algebra, because I understand it - both in theory and in practice!

Finite Math,

Finite Math

Finite Math generally includes the following subjects: set operations, Venn Diagrams, probability, permutations and combinations, matrices, solving systems of equations, linear programming and mathematics of finance. My Master's degree in mathematics included the study of all of these areas in the theory of Mathematics classes that I took as part of the MS degree. I specifically took an undergraduate class in matrix algebra, and two masters classes in general linear models that used matrix algebra as the basis for the class. My undergraduate degree in Mechanical Engineering included a semester of economics - using all of the equations presented in a business finance class. In addition, as the former President of a $70 million research firm, I understand the equations used in the mathematics of finance. I have successfully taught students using other tutoring platforms in finite mathematics, achieving ratings of 5 out of 5 for my work. In fact, I am currently engaged as a finite mathematics tutor for a college senior who is taking the course. I have Certifications from the American Society for Quality in Quality Engineering and Quality Management that also included some of these subjects.

Best tutor I've had!

Lisa has helped me all the way through my Business Statistics class. This class was not easy, but she was able to dive as deep in the material to make up for the lack of teaching from my professor. She also uses real life scenarios to relate to the problems in a way that help it all to make sense.

Excel and data analysis

She assisted with analyzing a Likert Scale result on excel. She explained the data analyses with t test with variance and non variance. She was knowledgeable, patient and engaging. I was very happy with her teaching style.
