Hello! I'm Cooper The Tutor! I've been tutoring math for over 7 years, and I have a BS in Mathematics from the University of Florida. When I was in middle school taking high school Geometry classes, I began feverishly exploring my own math problems in class for fun. I gravitated towards a subject called Analytic Number Theory. The obsessions grew so incessant that by the time I was a sophomore in high school, I had received detention five separate times, all for the same reason: I was looking at my phone in class to reference formulas for my number theory research. Exiting college, I now have several published articles on my research in the field of Number Theory. I've continued my private tutoring business post-grad, tutoring an average of 15-20 hours a week.
Here are a few of my stats/accolades:
800 SAT Math Subject test
1530 SAT
36 ACT Math
35 ACT
Straight A's in Math through college, graduating with honors
2 published research articles
1 refereed article
While my passion for research grew, a simultaneous passion for teaching math also emerged. I have worked at several testing facilities, served as a TA for FAU and UF, and along the way, I started my own business where I tutor high school one-on-one in Algebra, Calculus, Geometry and several other math courses. While I specialize in mathematical knowledge, my unique knowledge in widely diverse areas--psychology, chemistry, sociology, music, popular culture, history--allows me as an educator to compare intimidating mathematical ideas to more palatable ideas in pop culture or another academic subject a student may be more interested in.
