I have a Ph.D. in Mathematics from the University of Chicago. I have taught a wide variety of subjects over a period of more than 10 years in several different colleges. I also have been doing online-tutoring college, high-school and middle school students in the last year. Subjects I can tutor are Calculus (single variable and multivariable), Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Differential Geometry, Topology, Algebra, Trigonometry and (Euclidean) Geometry.

My preferred method of tutoring is to not give out the answer right away but to guide students to the answers by asking them guiding questions. I will listen to you carefully throughout this process and identify your weakness or what you need to improve, and if you overcomplicate something, I will help you think in a simpler way because I believe simplicity will get you further. I will suggest what you can work on between sessions. My goal is 2-folded: to help you in what you're having difficulties with while at the same time train you to be an independent thinker.

Wonderful teacher!

Tam helped my son with Algebra 1. He had 3 sessions with her so far and enjoyed all of them. Tam is very knowledgeable and patient. My son feels comfortable asking questions, and she takes the time to explain till he understands. We are grateful to have found her. Highly recommend!

Great teacher

Tu Tam is really helping my son understand key concepts in his Algebra 2 class. He thinks the lessons are going very well!

Great tutor!

Tu Tam helped my son study for a Projective Geometry test. She was so helpful and patient and went above and beyond to make sure he would understand the material for the test. She also reviewed homework with him that needed to be corrected. My son really liked working with her and he will be scheduling more tutoring sessions with her in the future.
