Bio

Additionally, I coached middle school and high school teacher for four years and trained over 1000 K-12 grade teachers in coding.

I am an MBA student at Duke University The Fuqua School of Business. I have tutored for the past 7 years from middle school to college. Additionally, I coached middle school and high school teacher for four years and trained over 1000 K-12 grade teachers in coding. I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' need. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. Not only do I hope to help my students with their academics, but also have fun while doing it!

I breakdown math into small steps that are easy to understand. I've taught or tutored math for over 10 years. I've got experience teaching elementary, middle, high school, and college math courses. I've attended the AP institute and have received training in Common Core Math. I've also taken advanced math and Excel courses at Duke University.

Subjects that I love to tutor:
AP Statistics
AP US Government and Politics

Algebra 1

Geometry
Reading
Writing

Comprehensive and Practical Tutor

Jig did an excellent job walking me through several statistical concepts. He was patient, engaging and took a very student-friendly approach to instructing me on concepts that I had minimal, if any, experience with. I highly recommend him.

Todd, 1 lesson with Jig

The best tutor I have ever had.

Jig is the best teacher I have ever had. He is very punctual, patient, and knowledgeable. He comes very prepared to the class with notes and other related materials.

Anu, 9 lessons with Jig

Jig is a terrific tutor. I will recommend anyone to use him as their tutor.

Jig has helped me with ANOVA Variance and he was very detailed by breaking down every point step-by-step. That made it very easy for me to understand how ANOVA works.

Statistics Questions

Jig is very resourceful and knew of each problem I had. He zeroed in directly on the issues which helped with my understanding. This is a college level mini session and having someone to quickly help you walk through the questions and understand them is very helpful.

LT , 3 lessons with Jig

This was exactly what I needed!

He helped me with all of my questions and didn’t make me feel dumb! I definitely feel like I have a better understanding after meeting with him. After one session I knew I would definitely be reaching out to him again soon! Thanks Jig!

Extremely Knowledgable and Skillful in Tutoring!

Jip is a fantastic tutor with a wonderful attitude! He explains all your problems, concepts, and needs with great depth to make sure you understand everything. Feel free to ask him any problems because he loves explaining. Jig was able to go through a ton of problems that I didn't know how to do before, and extract the problems to their core, making them so easy to understand. I look forward to our future lessons!
