About Diego

Bio

My name is Diego G., Master of Science, and I’m a mathematician who graduated from UC Berkeley.
As a kid, I was fascinated by arithmetic and algebra, and I always looked forward to my math classes. I was a straight As math student in high school and represented my school in local math Olympiads twice. As a teenager, I developed a deeper passion for math when I learned calculus and read through all of Leithold’s book, which allowed me to get ahead of my class.

My name is Diego G., Master of Science, and I’m a mathematician who graduated from UC Berkeley.
As a kid, I was fascinated by arithmetic and algebra, and I always looked forward to my math classes. I was a straight As math student in high school and represented my school in local math Olympiads twice. As a teenager, I developed a deeper passion for math when I learned calculus and read through all of Leithold’s book, which allowed me to get ahead of my class.
I moved to the US from Peru in 2010 and enrolled at Saddleback College to then transfer to UC Berkeley, where I obtained my B.A. in mathematics in 2016. In 2018 I obtained my M.S. in applied mathematics from Cal Poly Pomona. I got As in all my math and physics classes while in university. I currently work full-time as a game math designer for Take-Two Interactive, but my love for teaching mathematics makes me want to continue teaching here on Wyzant!
I have always helped my friends, high school and university classmates in their math and physics classes. Since 2012, I’ve tutored hundreds of STEM majors in the university and community college settings, as well as academically ambitious high school students taking college level, honors, or AP math and physics classes. Most of my students pursue or will pursue an engineering or a math degree, and some of them have become math tutors themselves! Before working in games, I was a math instructor at UC Berkeley for 1 summer, and at Cal Poly Pomona for 2 quarters.
I typically work with STEM majors, and high school students taking AP classes.
The most popular classes I tutor are:
AP Calculus AB
AP Calculus BC
Calculus 1, 2, 3, and 4
Multivariable Calculus
Higher Level IB Math
AP Precalculus
AP Physics 1 and 2
AP Physics C: Mechanics
AP Physics C: E&M
Physics 1, 2, and 3
Linear Algebra
ACT and SAT Math
When you contact me, be ready to share your class materials, such as your homework problems and study guide exercises, so I can best prepare before our session.
Let a math master tutor you!

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

If you're already scoring 30+ in the math section, but would like to focus on the harder ACT math problems, let's work together! Unlike normal exams, the key to improve your math ACT score is to learn clever tricks, and I can teach them to you through solving problems.
Calculus

Calculus

I'm a calculus expert and have tutored the subject for 10+ years. As a student, I scored straight As in all my Calculus classes. AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, Business Calculus, BioCalculus, Calculus For Life Sciences, Higher Level International Baccalaureate Math (HL IB Math), Calculus 1, Calculus 2, Calculus 3, Calculus 4, single-variable Calculus, and multi-variable Calculus are all my favorite subjects to teach! I'll teach you how to make the most out of your TI84 if you're an AP student. My AP Calculus students have scored 5/5!
Differential Equations

Differential Equations

I'm an ODEs expert and have tutored the subject for 10+ years. As a student, I scored straight As in all my Differential Equations classes. I tutor undergrads only!
Discrete Math

Discrete Math

I have a B.A. in math from UC Berkeley and a Master's in math from Cal Poly Pomona. I have over 10 years of experience tutoring many math subjects, including discrete math. As a student, I've passed Discrete Math at UC Berkeley with an A.
Finite Math

Finite Math

I have a B.A. in math from UC Berkeley and a Master's in math from Cal Poly Pomona. I have over 10 years of experience tutoring many math subjects, including finite math. As a student, I've passed Discrete Math (which includes all topics in a typical Finite Math class) at UC Berkeley with an A.
Linear Algebra

Linear Algebra

I'm an Linear Algebra master and have tutored the subject for 10+ years. As a student, I scored straight As in Linear Algebra and Advanced Linear Algebra. I've used linear algebra extensively on my Master's Thesis. I'm also very experienced using software, such as MATLAB and Python. I tutor undergrads only!
Precalculus

Precalculus

I tutor PreCalculus, AP PreCalculus, and College Algebra. I'm a PreCalculus expert and have tutored the subject for 10+ years. I'll teach you how to make the most out of your TI84 if you're an AP student.
Probability

Probability

I use my knowledge of probability and combinatorics to tackle casino math problems every day.
SAT Math

SAT Math

If you're already scoring at least 700 in the math section and want to lift your score to 770+, let's work together! Unlike normal exams, the key to improve your math SAT score is to learn clever tricks using pure math skill and technology (DESMOS), and I can teach them to you through solving problems.
