Hi! My name is Gavin. I work as a full-time software engineer, and between this and my bachelor's degree in mathematics from Tulane University, I've seen a lot of math.
If you are struggling with a challenging class, having difficulty understanding concepts, or just overall feeling lost in the world of mathematics, I am here to help. I promise that if you put in the time and work with the strategies I provide, you will succeed. My teaching philosophy is that no math problem is inherently difficult; every problem becomes manageable when it is broken down into simpler, more fundamental pieces.
At Tulane, I studied hard (3.8 GPA) and employed my student-centered teaching approach to help freshman and sophomore students ages 18–22 succeed in various collegiate calculus courses, such as Calculus and Long Calculus. I worked with 3–4 students a week throughout my senior year in a one-on-one tutoring setting, and this is where I developed my strong educational methodologies.
Furthermore, I led a Bay Area augmented reality/programming camp, where I worked with over 100 students ages 8–15 in a classroom environment. I've seen a lot of bright students who feel defeated by math, and I have two years of teaching experience under my belt.
Whether you want to gain a strong mathematical foundation for the rest of your life or just achieve an A+ in that impossible class, I'm here to help.
