Currently, I attend high school at Austin, Texas as a senior; I am not one who has a university degree or have studied anything formally for university. Generally, the subjects I excel at are physics, mathematics (statistics and calculus), and computer science. My current AP classes include: Statistics, Physics C, Computer Science, U.S. Government, Macroeconomics, Calculus BC, and Literature IV.
My advanced pieces of work include (but are not limited to): submission and publication with 3rd authorship (or higher) in 4 STEM-associated research papers (with principle investigators) in JEI and NHSJS, research co-lead in 1 paper (PI is a post-doctoral fellow), invitational research in 1 robotics-related study (supervisor is a professor). I also lead as a national board member in an STEM-organization of 120+ official members, and have held crucial roles in STEM-subject outreach and game development. I’ve attained academic awards and accolades in STEM and the arts, but I believe a person’s trustworthiness can be found more from their persistence in challenging tasks.
I have not held formal tutoring positions, but I’ve spent years helping classmates and friends understand difficult materials, whether it may be for exams, homework, or advanced concepts. My approach is to start from what the student already knows, identify gaps, and procedurally guide them toward long-term understanding (via examples and similar questions). I focus on teaching the reasoning behind things so students don’t just memorize (they can in the moment), but learn how to independently think through problems.
I work best with middle school and high school students in math and science, especially those who may feel intimidated by the subject or unsure where to start. Students can expect a patient, encouraging, and structured learning environment where questions are always welcome. Yes, my goal will help students improve their grades, but it will also help them gain confidence and develop skills that will serve them in the long term.
