A Math tutor with 10+ years of experience.

Hayden M.

I hold a Bachelor's degree in Games from the University of Utah, which has provided me with a solid foundation not only in game design and development but also in critical problem-solving and analytical thinking. These skills translate seamlessly into the subjects I tutor, particularly in mathematics and programming. Over the past 10 years, I have gained extensive experience tutoring college students in math, covering courses from developmental math to advanced topics such as calculus, algorithms, and data structures. As a math tutor, I focus on tailoring my methods to suit each student’s unique learning style. I am also CRLA and STEP 3 certified, which enhances my tutoring effectiveness and ensures a high standard of support for my students.

My tutoring approach is highly individualized, as I prioritize understanding each student’s learning process and addressing gaps in foundational knowledge before moving on to more advanced topics. I focus on building confidence through step-by-step problem-solving and making connections between concepts, which helps students apply what they’ve learned in new contexts. I have taught in both one-on-one and small group settings, primarily in formal educational environments, and have also mentored students in programming and game development as president of a game development club, where I host workshops and guide practical learning projects.

My experience working with college students has equipped me to navigate the academic challenges they face. By fostering a supportive learning environment, I help students overcome obstacles and achieve their academic goals with patience and clarity.
