I'm an Applied Mathematics major with a strong foundation in probability & statistics, calculus, financial mathematics, etc. I have also passed multiple Actuarial exams, such as Exam P, FM, and MAS-1, and have taken MAS-2 this month, demonstrating a high level of quantitative and analytical ability. My studies have given me a deep understanding of mathematical concepts and how to communicate them clearly to others.

I have 12 months of tutoring experience working with middle school and high school students in one-on-one settings. I previously tutored high school students in pre-calc and SAT prep. My tutor strategy is a "first principles" approach. I focus on the basic rules that make up the foundation of a subject by breaking concepts into manageable steps. That way, students are able to derive their own solutions and memorize less.

I believe every student can excel given the right support and learning strategy.
Please reach out if you need help with any of these subjects: Algebra, Geometry/Trigonometry,
Pre-Calc, Complex Numbers, Probability & Stats, SAT math, Actuarial Exam P, Actuarial Exam FM, Actuarial Exam MAS-1, Actuarial Exam MAS-2.
