MIT Undergrad Specializing in Math, Physics, and Computer Science

Gabriel G.

Helloooo, my name is Gabriel, and I’m a current MIT undergrad studying Aerospace Engineering and Computer Science. I specialize in tutoring math, physics, and computer science.

I have tutored my peers at all math levels: Elementary Math, Prealgebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Precalculus, Calculus 1, Calculus 2, Calculus 3, and Differential Equations.

For physics, I have completed the AP/IB versions and MIT’s introductory physics courses. Fun fact: I’ve taken Classical Mechanics for fun at least five times across three different institutions (including Texas A&M and MIT).

In the area of computer science, I have completed coursework in discrete math, algorithm design, data structure design, and best programming practices. I am fluent in Python, C, RISC-V Assembly, and Spanish. I also happen to be quite tech-savvy, if you are in need of general computer help.

While I haven't formally tutored standardized test prep, I scored a 1520 on the SAT and near-perfect scores on all STAAR exams. I have also helped develop supplemental learning materials for STAAR content.

I have formally TA’d for MIT’s physics department, and through summer school programs at my former elementary school and former high school. However, for the last 10 years, I have enjoyed the opportunity to informally tutor others and provide highly personalized assistance.

My tutoring style emphasizes the process of student-driven discovery through guided problem-solving and conceptual discussions. I aim to help students build an intuition for problem-solving and to help students find a systematic problem-solving strategy that works for them.

When I’m not teaching or working on my own homework, you’ll find me planning elaborate social events, organizing road trips with friends, or eating hotpot!
