My name is Maiko, and I have a Bachelor of Science in Biomedical Engineering with a minor in Computer Engineering from Boston University. Over the years, I’ve built a strong foundation in mathematics and problem-solving through coursework like Algorithms, Statistics, and Linear Algebra, and I’ve applied these skills while tutoring high school sophomores and juniors in Algebra 1, Algebra 2, and Pre-Calculus. My academic background also includes teaching experience at the university level, where I worked as a Teaching Fellow for a Logic Design course, supporting over 80 students through lab sessions, homework help, and one-on-one tutoring. These roles have strengthened my ability to break down complex topics and communicate them clearly.
As a tutor, I strive to create an encouraging, student-focused environment that builds confidence alongside skill. I tailor each session to the student’s pace and learning style, whether we’re reviewing foundational concepts or tackling more advanced topics. I walk through problems step-by-step, checking for understanding along the way, and provide targeted practice to reinforce key concepts. I believe learning happens best through collaboration, so I welcome questions at any time and work with students to identify the “why” behind each step—not just the “how.” Whether you're looking to boost your grades or gain a deeper understanding of math, I’m here to help you reach your goals!
