For 1.5 years, I worked as a Supplemental Instructor for Calculus at Kennesaw State University, where I guided students through challenging concepts and helped strengthen their problem-solving skills.

I am well-equipped to tutor Algebra, Precalculus, and Calculus due to both my formal experience and my long-standing passion for mathematics. For 1.5 years, I worked as a Supplemental Instructor for Calculus at Kennesaw State University, where I guided students through challenging concepts and helped strengthen their problem-solving skills. I was also selected as the Supplemental Instructor for a newly introduced course – Biocalculus, or Calculus for the Life Sciences – during its first semester, reflecting the trust my department placed in my mathematical understanding and teaching ability. In addition, I was chosen to support a summer math boot camp designed to prepare Calculus I students for the rigor of Calculus II, giving me further experience helping learners transition between foundational and advanced coursework.

Although I hold a bachelor’s degree in psychology, my deep love for mathematics has shaped my teaching style and allowed me to effectively support a wide range of learners. My approach focuses on practice-based learning and the use of visual aids to help students understand and internalize core concepts. While I primarily taught in a college classroom setting, I also offered individualized virtual sessions for students needing additional help. Patience, compassion, and empowerment guide every session I lead; I strive to ensure that each student leaves feeling more confident, capable, and prepared than when they arrived.

Calculus

Calculus

During my time as a supplemental instructor, I focused on teaching calculus I and biocalculus. Given some material in biocalculus overlaps with material in calculus II, I am well versed in these topics and have great confidence in helping with various problems. This includes limits, derivatives (basic rules, trigonometric, inverse trigonometric, logarithmic), foundations of integration (fundamental theorem of calculus), and sequences.
Algebra 1
Algebra 2
