Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I excelled in Algebra 1 when I was a freshman in high school. My most vivid memory of that class was after a graded exam was returned, the teacher said, "There is one student who would received a score of 99. He would have received 100 if he placed a period on his answer to the last question." He looked in my direction and the class laughed. Today, I am an Actuarial Candidate, having completed the first two exams administered by the Society of Actuaries, and completing an MS degree in Actuarial Science from Columbia University.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

Algebra 2 is one of the most common subjects that I have helped students with year-round, since 2008. Personally, I completed the course when I was a sophomore in high school, advancing to pass the AP Calculus BC exam in my senior year. Tutoring with me, students not only learn the material, but I teach them more efficient methods to solve problems in intermediate algebra.
Calculus

Calculus

As a senior in high school, I passed the AP Calculus BC Exam, and completed Calculus 3 during my first semester of college. Since 2008, I have tutored students in calculus courses. I have passed the first two actuarial exams, which both use Calculus. Previously, I worked as a teacher for Clark County School District, licensed to teach mathematics through calculus.
Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra

I earned an A in this course at UNLV. It comes natural to me, and is a subject I enjoy. I have successfully tutored students in this subject over the years at both the high school and college undergraduate level.
Microsoft Excel

Microsoft Excel

Excel has always been one of my favorite computer applications, in the classroom, on the job, and off the job. As an Actuarial Candidate, I have used spreadsheets for pension plan administration, for balancing investment portfolios, and for predictive modeling of stock option pricing.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

Since I began tutoring professionally in 2008, an important part of my practice is helping students improve pre-algebra skills that limit their learning performance in higher level math courses. Pre-algebra itself is a course that most students must succeed in to graduate. It is also helpful for everyday math tasks.
Precalculus

Precalculus

Passed the AP Calculus BC exam during my senior year in high school. Passed the third semester of calculus during my first quarter of college. Passed the first two actuarial exams administered by the Society of Actuaries. Completing an MS degree in Actuarial Science from Columbia University.
Probability

Probability

As an Actuarial Candidate, I passed the Probability exam administered by the Society of Actuaries. I also passed a graduate course in Probability from Columbia University, with a grade of B. I enjoy probability because of how much intuition is involved, as well as the challenge of solving diverse problems.
SAS

SAS

SAS programming language is used in many of the courses for the MS degree in Statistics that I am completing as a distance learning student of Texas A&M University. In December 2019, I became a SAS Certified Associate. In May 2020, I became a SAS Certified Specialist.
SAT Math

SAT Math

Since 2008, I have helped students prepare for the math portion of standardized tests, including SAT. Previously, I worked as a highly qualified teacher licensed in secondary mathematics by the State of Nevada, Department of Education. Currently, I am an actuarial candidate, having passed the first two exams administered by the Society of Actuaries, and completing an MS degree in Actuarial Science through Columbia University.
Statistics

Statistics

Completed graduate courses in Computational Statistics, Mathematical Statistics, and Statistical Methods. Currently taking courses in Regression Analysis, and Applied Analytics. SAS Certified Specialist with basic proficiency in statistical analysis using R software. Passed the actuarial exams in Probability, and Statistics for Risk Modeling.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

Trigonometry is one of the subjects that I help students with year-round. Visualization and diagrams are key to proficiency in this subject. This comes naturally to me. In my senior year of high school, for example, I passed both the AP Calculus BC exam and the AP Studio Art exam.
ACT Math
Geometry

Knowledgeable tutor

I am a rookie with Excel and data analysis. Ken taught me how to use the data analysis in several easy steps. He is also teaching me how to interpret the data which is very important in my coursework.
