Applied Math & Stats PhD for AP Pre-Calc/Calc/Stat & SAT Math Tutoring

Xiaoke F.

I hold a Ph.D. in Statistics from Stony Brook University, with a strong foundation in Calculus, Probability, and Statistics. My undergraduate studies in Computer Science further strengthened my mathematical reasoning and computational skills. My expertise extends beyond theoretical mathematics to practical applications, including Quantitative Trading and Machine Learning, where I have applied advanced statistical methods to real-world problems.

I have extensive teaching experience, covering different levels of mathematics. As a Graduate Teaching Assistant at Stony Brook University, I taught Mathematical Statistics, Probability, and Categorical Data Analysis, working with graduate and Ph.D. students. My responsibilities included delivering lectures, conducting tutorial sessions, grading assignments and exams, and providing individualized support to students. Additionally, I served as an Instructor of Calculus at the Central University of Finance and Economics, where I covered limits, derivatives, integrals, and multivariable calculus, helping students develop a strong foundation in mathematical analysis. These experiences have honed my ability to explain complex mathematical concepts clearly and effectively.

Currently, I specialize in tutoring AP Precalculus, AP Calculus AB/BC, and AP Statistics, guiding high school students through rigorous coursework and exam preparation. My teaching approach focuses on conceptual clarity, logical reasoning, and problem-solving skills, ensuring students not only excel in exams but also develop a deep understanding of mathematical principles. I strive to make complex topics more accessible by using intuitive explanations, real-world applications, and structured problem-solving techniques. Whether students need help mastering fundamental concepts or preparing for AP exams, I am committed to providing high-quality instruction that builds confidence and mathematical proficiency.
