Santtee A. Experienced College Tutor Specializing in Precalculus

Santtee A.

Hi there, I have been a math tutor at Borough of Manhattan Community College (BMCC) for the past four
years. I tutor students there in Algebra, Precalculus, as well as Calculus I, and Calculus II. I graduated from Hostos Community College as Salutatorian in 2016, and am now a Math Major at the City College of New York. I love helping students through the frustrations that many face when dealing with math, and pride myself on doing so with patience, empathy, understanding.

I have been tutoring all sorts of college students for over two years and have learned a lot from doing so. I have worked in Borough the of Manhattan Community College (B.M.C.C.) and Hostos Community College in their open math lab settings as well as alongside professors during in-class sessions. Working in the open math labs I have developed the ability to interact well with all sorts of people and can quickly adjust my teaching techniques to accommodate the student's temperament. Working alongside professors during in-class sessions has helped me to better understand the structure of the courses I offer tutoring for and has given me the knowledge necessary to let students know why the things that they're learning are relevant to what they'll see in the future. I am very patient and believe that there is no such thing as a dumb question. I enjoy going in-depth when going over topics, giving a solid background of the necessary formulas, and helping students understand the reasoning behind using them.

I am always happy to interact with students who are wondering whether or not private tutoring is for them. I will respond as promptly as possible to any inquiry. Feel free to contact me with any questions you may have.
