Hi Everyone!

I'm Zachary. I've a passion for mathematics, and I love to see students all find success!

I've taught everything from high school freshmen to college seniors in a variety of subjects. I did research in mathematical biology, and I love connecting mathematics of all kinds to the real-world. I'm currently a designee and mathematician for a gaming company, where I use probability and statistics to create engaging games. I've also worked a simulation developer for a biomedical...

Hi Everyone!

I'm Zachary. I've a passion for mathematics, and I love to see students all find success!

I've taught everything from high school freshmen to college seniors in a variety of subjects. I did research in mathematical biology, and I love connecting mathematics of all kinds to the real-world. I'm currently a designee and mathematician for a gaming company, where I use probability and statistics to create engaging games. I've also worked a simulation developer for a biomedical startup, using all sorts of math to model real world problems.

I was previously licensed as a TN Secondary Teacher with an endorsement in Mathematics, but also taught university courses for 9 years. I have been employed as a tutor both privately and for universities for over 15 years!

I can help in many subjects, it never hurts to ask :)

I received my MBA from Lousiana State University - Shreveport in December. The program consisted of 30 hours and I had a 4.0 GPA.
C++

C++

I have a long history of programming in C++. Starting with getting a 5 on the AP Comp Sci Test (then given in C++) to doing scientific modeling using the language as part of post-master's research, it has been my main language. I have taken college courses in computer methods using other Object Oriented Languages.
Computer Programming

Computer Programming

I write code as part of my job (several hundred lines of code per week). I have taught a programming course for the University of Tennessee (Introduction to Programming for Math majors). As part of the way to my math degrees (BA, MA) I studied computer science and algorithms. I am familiar with several programming languages, including C++, Python, Java, R, Fortran, MATLAB, and VB.
Differential Equations

Differential Equations

I taught the course at the University of Tennessee. My research in graduate school was heavily dependent on differential equations. I took several courses in grad school in the field of differential equations.
Finite Math

Finite Math

I am a licensed teacher in the state of Tennessee, with a secondary endorsement in mathematics. On top of my graduate education (masters +60), I am experienced in teaching math of all levels.
Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra

I got my master's in Mathematics, but took several more years of graduate classes. I studied linear algebra, took higher courses in algebra. I used applied linear algebra in my programming courses, and even included some of the material while teaching differential equations at the University of Tennessee.
Marketing

Marketing

I received my MBA from Lousiana State University - Shreveport in December. The program consisted of 30 hours and I had a 4.0 GPA, but I completed the Hospitality and Casino Marketing Specialty, with coursework in marketing and marketing analytics.
