Hi, I'm Van! I will soon be finishing my Bachelor's degree in Mathematics Education. I love teaching math; I have been a math tutor for more than 8 years now. In addition to in-person and online private tutoring, I've worked as math instructor in the Student Learning Lab of Saint Johns River State College (FL), as a Calculus TA at Brigham Young University (UT), and as a "GEAR-UP" math tutor at Provo High School (UT).
I most commonly tutor high school and college students (but I also have experience tutoring people in middle school), and the subjects I am best at tutoring are Algebra, Geometry, and Precalculus.
I am able to quickly identify gaps in a student's understanding, and effectively provide reinforcement for those areas. I like to teach fun and clever memory devices for formulas, and use analogies to make foreign concepts more relatable. I also break down problems step-by-step, so that by the end of the lesson, the student fully understands and is able to do the math problems on their own.
Feel free to message me with any questions you have or to set up an appointment!
