About David


Bio

Hello! My name is David, and I am a senior Mechanical Engineering student at UMBC with a 4.0 GPA. My love for math led me to engineering, and I have taken courses from Pre-Calculus to Differential Equations, scoring a near-perfect ACT Math score. I have conducted research at NASA, MIT, and Caltech, experiences that have strengthened my problem-solving skills and ability to teach complex concepts.

Hello! My name is David, and I am a senior Mechanical Engineering student at UMBC with a 4.0 GPA. My love for math led me to engineering, and I have taken courses from Pre-Calculus to Differential Equations, scoring a near-perfect ACT Math score. I have conducted research at NASA, MIT, and Caltech, experiences that have strengthened my problem-solving skills and ability to teach complex concepts.

I have years of tutoring experience at various levels. I began tutoring elementary and middle school students in algebra and pre-algebra through volunteer programs. In college, I served as a Pre-Calculus Teaching Assistant for two semesters, leading weekly review sessions, administering quizzes, and supporting students individually. Additionally, I was a Calculus II group tutor, helping 20+ students per session, and a grader for Algebra, reviewing coursework for 80+ students. My Pre-Calculus students consistently had the highest quiz averages among TA-led sections, reflecting my ability to explain concepts clearly and effectively.

My teaching method emphasizes active learning, problem-solving strategies, and real-world applications to make math intuitive. I focus on breaking down complex problems into simple steps so students develop confidence and long-term understanding. Since I recently took the ACT, I can offer insider test-taking strategies to improve scores.

I would love to help you succeed in math! Contact me to schedule a session and let’s make math clear, manageable, and even enjoyable!

Precalculus

Precalculus

As a Precalculus Teaching Assistant for two semesters at UMBC, I have led weekly discussion sessions, administered quizzes, and provided one-on-one support to students. My active learning approach focuses on engagement, problem-solving strategies, and real-world applications to deepen understanding. My section consistently achieved the highest average quiz scores across all TA-led sections, reflecting my ability to break down complex topics effectively. Whether you're looking to build a strong math foundation or boost your confidence in problem-solving, I am here to help you succeed!
SAT Math

SAT Math

As a Teaching Assistant and experienced math tutor, I have helped students build strong problem-solving skills through both structured lessons and personalized support. I have volunteered with local high school students, guiding them through algebra, geometry, and advanced math concepts to prepare for standardized tests. Having taken the ACT myself not long ago (and scoring near perfect on the math section), I understand the test inside and out—from key strategies to common pitfalls—and can help students approach questions with clarity and confidence. My teaching style focuses on breaking down complex problems into simple, intuitive steps, ensuring that students not only improve their scores but also develop lasting math skills.
