Hi I'm Patrick, and I have 7 years of experience tutoring in subject matter ranging from elementary mathematics to abstract algebra. Whether you are looking for the push you need to complete your homework, a little extra test prep, or to discover a deeper understanding I can help with your math learning goals. I have a bachelors degree in mathematics as well as a master's degree in secondary math education so I have knowledge of both the subject matter and the best methods for approaching content for learners at all levels.
In addition to subject matter knowledge I am an experienced standardized test tutor, and know all the tricks to cracking the SAT and ACT (Having scored in the 99th percentile on these exams). I can help you with problem recognition and test taking shortcuts that are sure to bring your score up a healthy amount.
When I am teaching I like to meet the student where they are at. I will often take the first lesson to get to understand the student, what they are working on and and how they think before proceeding with a plan. Everyone is different and they all learn differently. I focus largely on figuring out the students struggles, and finding an intuitive way to approach points of struggle. I really enjoy helping people to succeed with their goals, and walk away feeling satisfied with their experience.
