Mathematics Graduate With 4 Years of Tutoring Experience

Ryan A.

I'm Ryan! During my time in high school, I had a teacher who was so impactful that I began to love both the subject and teaching because of him. His insight and effective teaching style made me passionate about passing on the same enthusiasm and love for math to the next generation of students. I decided because of him that I would devote my studies to math and pursue teaching. In May of 2025, I graduated from the University of Maine with a Bachelor of Science degree in mathematics. Throughout my time there, I managed a GPA of 3.95 and had a full ride scholarship from the National Merit Corporation. In my senior year, I received the top prize in physical and mathematical sciences in the University of Maine Student Symposium for my research into mathematically modeling migrating birds.

I have been tutoring math since before I started college. For several years starting in 2021, I worked with Amy Ruff in Chapel Hill, NC, where I tutored up to 10 students per week. Though I am most used to tutoring 1-on-1, I also have experience in a group setting, as I tutored several groups of students in Calculus 3 during university. My teaching style is quite flexible, and I can adapt to the student's needs depending on what they need. I am excited to do my very best to bring this knowledge and experience to tutoring and do whatever I can to fit anything students might need.

Due to my flexibility and openness for discussion, I encourage anyone interested to reach out to discuss questions or concerns. I will respond quickly and to the best of my ability. Feel free to send me a message with anything you need.
