About Jody

Bio

My main goal as a tutor is to help you better understand math and what it models.

You are encouraged to ask questions, to challenge explanations, and to consider critically the topics and exercises that are asked of you. I hope to support you in becoming an independent learner of math and understanding how it supports so much of our modern world.

Statistics

Most experience is with introductory statistics classes and AP Statistics. Course work taken at UT Austin that focused on math foundations of statistics. Software familiarity varies - have not invested in high-cost packages.

Homeschool

Algebra 2,

Algebra 2

I tutored Calculus for 10+ years, as well as algebra; so I have a good understanding of how the algebra concepts lay the foundations for the later calculus course work. Also, the calculus work creates more challenging algebra applications that may not be touched on in an algebra 2 course.
Calculus,

Calculus

- Calculus tutoring experience: 10+ years, in college-based learning labs (still employed). - Experience includes single variable and multi-variable calculus - High proficiency with application problems; integration techniques, and infinite series - Tutoring experience includes both business calculus and engineering calculus courses
Geometry,

Geometry

I tutored Calculus for 10+ years, which includes geometry applications. In addition, college course work in math has strengthened proof development and analysis, which tends to be first heavily used in high school geometry. For online tutoring, there may be significant use of the geogebra.com web site, to illustrate construction proofs visually.

Precalculus

I tutored Calculus for 10+ years, as well as pre-calculus; so I have a good understanding of how the pre-calculus concepts lay the foundations for the later calculus course work.

Discrete Math,

Discrete Math

I am familiar with multiple topics in discrete math, ranging from probability and statistics to number theory and network theory. As there is some variance in how the subject is taught, potential tutees need to bring class notes and textbooks to sessions.

Knows calculus very well

Jody knows what he is doing. He has been a tutor in mathematics for a very long time and it shows. He is patient and will break down concepts. Most importantly he well not just give you the answer but instead lead you in the right direction.

Sue, 10 lessons with Jody

Great math teacher

You can tell he knows his stuff. Very informative and well rounded on this system along with calculus terms. He did a great job

Joseph, 2 lessons with Jody

Knowledgeable and patient

Mr Bean was able to present a different way to look at problems. Helpful in reviewing concepts. Plan to meet with him again. Appreciated meeting in a location convenient for both of us.
