Award-Winning AP Calculus BC Tutors serving Minneapolis, MN

...my K-12 school, then in college. The cumulative nature of math poses challenges to many students, and I like to find ways to connect the dots to help my students have a better grasp of difficult concepts. While I have tutored a variety of subjects, such as math, economics, chemistry, finance, and linguistics, I now focus on tutoring math, primarily, since it is my passion. I have a very flexible tutoring style, and my approach...

...subjects, such as calculus courses, physics, chemistry, programming (python), french, and writing courses. Additionally, I took many AP classes throughout high school which enabled me to enter college with over 30 credits already completed. I have spent two years tutoring in the past and have gained experience learning how to work best with struggling students. I enjoy teaching and helping others learn, be it for a specific subject, test preparation (ACT, SAT or AP), or...

...math tutoring center. I loved being able to work one-on-one with students and see their growth as they started to understand the material. I strongly believe that understanding concepts is just as important as being able to work out technical problems, and that all students (regardless of perceived mathematical intelligence) have the ability to do so. I also understand how mathematics functions to gatekeep some students from certain majors and jobs later in life, and...

...because it helps you understand and analyze different problems in a very different way. I like helping students because I don't think they should feel like they can't accomplish something because they don't understand a topic very well, they should be able to accomplish everything they want and since education is very necessary nowadays to have the life they want to have.It is truly amazing to help people follow their dreams. In my free time,...

...research, write and speak in front of an audience. At my undergraduate, Simpson College, I tutored college and high school students in mathematics, economics, accounting and edited papers. I firmly believe every student can succeed if they set a goal, seek out the right support (that's me!) and work hard. I graduated Simpson College in 2016 with degrees in Economics and History, and I am currently applying to Ph. D. programs in Latin American History....

...engineering at the University of Virginia. Over the past five years I've taught quite a few lab courses, mostly in electronics for biomedical students. I enjoy helping to guide students to a better understanding, so they can explain a concept in their own words (not just in my words). I like to draw out visual explanations whenever possible, for math and science concepts. I've been excited about all kinds of science for pretty much all...

...experience working with students includes mentoring peers in math-intensive courses and leading informal study sessions that break down intimidating content into manageable, intuitive steps. What I love most is seeing a student go from "I don't get it" to "wait... this actually makes sense now." My tutoring style is highly analytical yet conversationalI focus on asking the right questions, listening closely to a student's process, and building conceptual clarity from the ground up.

I recently moved to the Twin Cities from Arizona and I love exploring the outdoors while hiking and running around the lakes, enjoying the new climate and the new plants and animals. I also enjoy meditation and yoga. I'm a life long learner, always pursing interesting new ideas in science and medicine. I'm especially an...

...their homework. I had the opportunity to observe a British secondary school during my study abroad term this past January, which I found to be an enjoyable and enlightening experience. I am a firm believer that education is of critical importance in both personal development and becoming an influential person in this world. In my free time, you could find me singing in Bethel's top choir, or talking with a friend over a cup of...

With my combined education and work experience, I am passionate about STEM. I love to help other students achieve their goals, and love to teach others. I have extensive experience teaching Math (everything from Algebra 1 to college Linear Equations) and Chemistry (General, Organic, Physical). I consider myself a life-long learner and view...

...firmly of the belief that learning a technical subject like chemistry, physics, or math is much like learning a foreign language: listening and reading is much easier than speaking and writing. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you come to class and understand what the instructor is saying, you don't need to practice the material. Accordingly, I emphasize the need to practice "speaking" the language on a...

..."up to speed". Now, I am looking forward to making tutoring part of my daily routine. Back in the day, I was an undergrad at Harvey Mudd College (Claremont, CA). and grad student at UC Berkeley. Fast forward 40+ years and my wife and I are living in Maple Grove MN (20 miles NW of Minneapolis). In addition to tutoring and working some part time consulting gigs, I love spending time with my 2 grandkids,...

...to most NASA research facilities. I have seen many items in the research stage, for example cell phones, (yes, there was a time before cell phones) and HD TV. I have worked in research facilities on college campuses and in commercial company research facilities. Research work is slow, meticulous and owe inspiring. The research work gave me a new appreciation for how scientific knowledge actually moves forward. I enjoy science and I enjoy students. My...

...Minnesota! When I graduate, I am hoping to go on to obtain a master's in education and become a licensed teacher.
