| Experience: | I have over a decade of teaching, TAing, and tutoring experience, covering all ranges of students and topics of math or college prep. I enjoy working with students of all skill levels, and have experience with those working through learning disabilities and other significant challenges. I understand that many students not only struggle with math, but find it hard, unpleasant, and/or scary. I try to help make it make sense, as well as help students develop good study habits and learn to really understand the concepts as well as the calculations and problem solving. | ||||
| Additional: | I received my PhD in Math from UC Davis in 2020, and spent the following year teaching calculus and other courses.

| Offered: | Calculus, Linear Algebra, Differential Equations, Introduction to Proofs, Analysis, Algebra, Topology, Numerical Analysis, and most other upper division mathematics. | ||||
| Available: | Ongoing | ||||
| Experience: | I am currently a UC Davis PhD student in Applied Mathematics, and have 10+ years of private tutoring experience (K-12 and college) and 4+ years of university-level tutoring center experience. Throughout all of my time as a private tutor, tutoring center tutor, and teaching assistant, I have learned that one-on-one tutoring is by far the most conducive to learning. In a group setting, it is easy to fall behind the crowd or convince oneself that they are comfortable with the material, but individualized learning is the key to ensuring that students leave no cracks of knowledge unfilled. Doing mathematics can be incredibly rewarding, and I want to ensure that every student is able to see the beauty of it and feel the satisfying feeling of completing their homework and acing their exams. | ||||
| Additional: | I also tutor any level of K-12 mathematics and standardized tests such as the SAT and GRE. Feel free to e-mail or text me if you have any further questions! | ||||

| Experience: | I have been tutoring for 4 years in Calculus, and upper division of Mathematics. I have a bachelors in Math and Physics and a Masters in Mathematics. I have been a TA for numerous courses and have been an AI for 16, 21 series along with MAT 150A, 127A. I have seen that students often find it super difficult in coping up with the pace of the quarter system. I’m here to provide you with a little push so that the C or an F (merely due to the frustration of lagging behind) can be turned into an A or an A- with a little help. I’m here to help you understand concepts, guide through lots of problems and making sure that you understand the material. Often times learning 1-1 or in a small group helps take away the intimidation of asking questions. | ||||
| Additional: | Willing to tutor jr.high and high school students. Undergrad of any level is most welcome. Understand the concepts, solve lots of problems and getting that A is the goal. | ||||

| Experience: | I am a PhD candidate in the mathematics department, holding master's degrees math and physics and bachelor’s degrees in physics and music. Math is a frustrating experience when none of the material seems to fit together, so I want to help you find the forest through the trees. My philosophy is to approach your tutoring sessions by filling in background knowledge, identifying current misconceptions, and then creating a lesson style that resonates with how you learn. For many students, this means leading you on a path through which you can discover WHY the math you're doing makes sense, making you prepared to tackle problems like those we practice and even others that seem alien at first. | ||||
| Additional: | I tutor any college math or physics, and I also have a lot of experience tutoring middle and high school students. I've been tutoring math and physics courses at UC Davis for five years, and I've TAed many upper division math courses. My research is about geometry in higher dimensions! Discounts available for new students and upper division classes. Please email! | ||||
