I am a relatively young former college professor who taught for 11 years at local community colleges. I began my tutoring and teaching careers simultaneously so I also have 11 years of tutoring experience. Students tend to relate to me, as well as learn efficiently from my instruction. I have a wealth of mathematical and chemical knowledge. I am patient, prudent and capable of explaining to students in great detail. I am flexible in my teaching and tutoring styles. I am not the common "math guy," I will not bore your child!

I am extremely adept at providing students with step-by-step instructions on how to solve a myriad number of problems. I can often predict students' questions before they verbalize them. I am not boring, am capable of relating to students of all ages and can tutor math of any level, from elementary school through advanced engineering mathematics.

Students love to tutor with me. My teaching style is student centered. I am an expert in math and chemistry. I know the material and most importantly, I can help you to know it!

Statistics

I have taught and tutored advanced probability and statistics at the college level for over 5 years. I was chosen by the Dean of Mathematics and Sciences to teach statistics to high school students in our "get ahead "program. This program allowed qualified high school students from local feeder schools to enroll in college courses during their junior and/or senior year. I am proud to say that I was the ONLY math professor given a class of ALL high school students.

Organic Chemistry

As a chemical engineering undergraduate student, I was required to take both organic chemistry I and II. I received an A and B in those courses respectively. The courses were extremely rigorous and I was taught by Dr. Peter Johnson, who received his Ph.d from The Massachusetts Institute of Technology. To be honest, I found the courses to be fun, particularly retro synthetic analysis and spectroscopy, which were my favorite topics.

I have been an avid physique competitor for over 4 years. I have been in 4 amateur shows since 2013. I placed 3rd in UFE fury fitness model division in 2013 and 2014. I have also competed in the NPC men's physique division. I placed third at Wings of Strength in Tinley Park, Illinois in 2014 and 5th in 2016. My 3rd place finish in 2013 qualified me to compete at nationals. You can google the photos! I lift weights and run 5 or 6 times a week and have a wealth of knowledge on nutrition, including but not limited to proper macronutrient intake. My max lifts on squat, bench press and deadlift are 445 pounds, 410 pounds and 475 pounds respectively.

Great Math Tutor

Mr. Wyatt Rush taught my daughter Algebra2. He was so gifted in math. The first session he gave my daughter the confidence she needed. I highly recommend him. Mr. Rush makes children feel so comfortable with his teaching.

THE VERY BEST!!!

Wyatt is a true Godsend! I have not met any tutor who is as smart AND as relatable as him. Upon our initial meeting, we connected immediately and I knew that he was a right fit for my teenage son. This is the text I sent him after that meet and greet: "You are awesome! I truly appreciated your down to earth nature coupled with the mastery of your craft. Most of all, I loved the way my son's face lit up and you continued to talk to him. You made him feel comfortable and eager to learn. It was especially important to me for him to have a tutor who looks like him (a Black man)." As we left, he even said, "That was fun?" Now WHO says that after leaving their math tutor?!" The moral to the story? Hire Wyatt. You won't be sorry!

Wyatt knows best!

Mr Wyatt was great, this is only my second lesson but I'm confident that he is going to help me get on the right path. I like the way he jogged my memory on past math concepts and made them seem so easy. I look forward to all of our future lessons!

Subject matter professional

Wyatt reinforced the relatability of statistics and math. He helped me grasp the subject matter. He is both professional and personable.

Precalculus

Thanks to Wyatt my daughter said "I finally understand, this man is Yoda!" He was very easy to follow and patient.

Cheryl, 21 lessons with Wyatt

Extremely helpful

Wyatt was extremely helpful and made our study session a breeze. He is very easy to talk to and understood how to improve common errors in my homework. I highly recommend Wyatt for homework assistance, studying for a test, or needing help with any mathematical problems you are uncomfortable in. We reviewed Derivatives, Graphs, Max/min Points, Equations of Tangent Lines- Applied Calculus.
