About Emma


Bio

Hey! I'm Emma, a graduate TA at Western Washington University in mathematics. I am hoping to study combinatorial game theory, but I also love differential equations, probability, and analysis, with a healthy dose of algebraic group theory. I teach pre algebra/algebra at the university I am currently in.

I finished my BS in Mathematics from Washington State University Fall 2025, with honors. I did an undergraduate thesis in computational solutions to geodesic (PDE/ODE shortest path)...

Hey! I'm Emma, a graduate TA at Western Washington University in mathematics. I am hoping to study combinatorial game theory, but I also love differential equations, probability, and analysis, with a healthy dose of algebraic group theory. I teach pre algebra/algebra at the university I am currently in.

I finished my BS in Mathematics from Washington State University Fall 2025, with honors. I did an undergraduate thesis in computational solutions to geodesic (PDE/ODE shortest path) equations on R2 (the typical plane). I tutored there for the Math Learning Center at my university for 3 years, serving as a tutor for most undergraduate classes and grader for Ordinary Differential Equations, Trigonometry, and Partial Differential Equations. I also was a Learning Assistant in a Physics 101 classroom, and have studied formal logic through the incompleteness theorems.

I love helping students learn how to translate the language of mathematics into one that feels more comfortable to them, and encouraging creative solutions to problems. I believe in hands-on educational techniques, and using lots of different models to represent the problem.

Differential Equations

Differential Equations

I have been a TA and tutor for ODEs for 3+ years, and for PDEs for 2+ years, as well as doing research in computational approximations to PDEs and ODEs (specifically geodesic equations) in metric spaces.
Discrete Math

Discrete Math

I have 3+ years tutoring experience with a BS in theoretical mathematics, including experience tutoring introductory discrete mathematics to computer science students and elementary proof writing. I am a graduate student studying combinatorics and discrete mathematics as a whole, and have completed an undergraduate thesis that included an overview of Dijkstra's algorithm to solve geodesic equations.
