Hey, I'm John! I graduated summa cum laude from William & Mary with degrees in Mathematics and Chinese. I have over five years of experience tutoring math, both in one-on-one and group settings. Most of my experience is in teaching SAT/ACT math, Calculus I & II, Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, and a range of other undergraduate-level math courses. I primarily tutor high school students, college undergraduates, and adult learners, including those that are returning to math after time...
Hey, I'm John! I graduated summa cum laude from William & Mary with degrees in Mathematics and Chinese. I have over five years of experience tutoring math, both in one-on-one and group settings. Most of my experience is in teaching SAT/ACT math, Calculus I & II, Multivariable Calculus, Linear Algebra, and a range of other undergraduate-level math courses. I primarily tutor high school students, college undergraduates, and adult learners, including those that are returning to math after time away from school.
One of the reasons I developed a passion for mathematics is that I had instructors who took the time to break down difficult concepts and made them intuitive. This is what I focus on in my tutoring sessions. Instead of just memorizing procedures, I help students understand what a problem is really asking, why a method works, and how different concepts fit together. This approach has helped my students improve their test scores, prepare for future math courses, and, most importantly, come to see math as something that is coherent, useful, and interesting.
