Award-Winning Calculus Tutors in Bogota

...love helping people get to the "aha" moment when they really understand what's being taught. In my experience, one of the most important parts of tutoring is setting clear expectations at the beginning and working toward a common goal. Given the right goals and assistance, I truly believe that anyone can master any of the...

...allows them to learn a process that can be applied to different problems in life outside the exam setting. I definitely try to impart my passion for problem solving onto people I tutor. In my spare time, I enjoy playing and watching most sports but especially basketball, tennis, football, and cricket. I also enjoy participating...

...my students succeed. In middle school, I struggled to find motivation in the field of mathematics, as many of my teachers didn't spend enough time supporting me and their other students. Only in high school did I grow very interested in math, as my teachers set enough time aside to discuss the material and to...

...their skills over time. Outside of school, I enjoy playing trombone and singing (I do enjoy using songs to help memorize math formulas), speedcubing (solving Rubik's Cubes really fast), and hanging out with my friends. If you attend ISU, we can meet in person for a tutoring session, otherwise I would prefer to have an...

...a Sophomore at BYU from Sacramento, CA. Currently, I am studying Mechanical Engineering with a minor in Management. I love understanding how everything works and that is one of my biggest motivators in school and learning in general. The subjects in which I am most proficient are Calculus, any type of Algebra and test-taking skills....

...lesson I've learned as a tutor is to first step back and let a student tell me their goals, show me how they take in information, and point me in the direction of the challenging areas. With this information, I can help students build their own learning and testing strategy to accomplish their goals.... There is always more than one way to learn a concept or approach a problem; it's just a matter of figuring out...

...succeed in school, and I have personally improved the grades of many of my peers through studying sessions with me by as much as 30%. I am a friendly and casual tutor, but my enthusiasm for helping others to learn is likely my most important quality as a tutor. I would appreciate any opportunity to...

...loved numbers and Mathematics but it wasn't until college that I realized this passion and strength were driving me towards education. Since then, I've enjoyed working with students of all ages and abilities to further their math skills. I believe that everyone has mathematical abilities and I enjoying working and watching these abilities grow and...

...are working on because it means they have an understanding of their strengths and weaknesses. I want to encourage students to always be able to explain why they picked a certain answer or what steps they took to solve a problem. I also want students to have a connection to the material and understand how...

...endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just plain cool,...

...science tutoring as well as standardized exam preparation. In the past, I have helped students achieve significant improvements and success on the SAT, SHSAT, Regents and other exams! I truly believe education is a mutual learning and teaching opportunity and enjoy helping my students achieve a thorough understanding (those "Aha!" moments) and appreciation of whatever...

...my car, photographing nature, or fishing. I cultivated a love of fixing things early on in college, and I refuse to pay a mechanic something that I enjoy doing myself. Getting outside is very important to me, especially since I tend to be cooped up in my dorm during the school year. Photography and fishing...

...that passion with others. I first got into tutoring through a volunteer program in high school, and I continued to tutor during my undergraduate studies, which was some of the most rewarding work I've ever done. My engineering background has allowed me to take a wide variety of math and science courses, including Caclulus, Physics,...

...students, an SAT Math instructor, and a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) tutor for college students. I believe my strongest subject to tutor is Standardized Test Prep (SAT, ACT, and GRE). Performing well on these tests can truly bolster a student???s application for undergraduate or graduate education, and I truly enjoy helping him or...

...for mathematics and I love every minute of it. I like tackling new mathematics and helping students view their work at different angles that might help them come to an understanding of the subject. Being able to do math, not just arithmetic, is an ability that every student has and I believe that together we...

...makes my job very rewarding because working with them to find the approach that best caters to their needs feels awesome. As a tutor, I always ensure that my students have a good qualitative understanding of the subjects they are struggling in before helping them with quantitative problems. For example, rather than simply telling my...

...and Music Composition. Upon graduating from OSU I worked for a local environmental nonprofit which focused on alternative fuels for the transportation industry. In the near future I hope to attend graduate school to study Public Policy and Affairs, with a goal of continuing my work in environmental sustainability. As my degree displays, I'm very...

...that were completely new to science. As part of my degree program, I have taught several different science classes. One of my favorite parts of being a doctoral student has been teaching and working one-on-one with students. To me, there is nothing more rewarding than seeing something 'click' for a student. My interdisciplinary training in...

...I wish to inspire those who have yet to see the wonders of mathematics in the hopes that they too might want to further the field themselves one day. As Edward Frenkel said in an interview on the subject of mathematics, "This is the coolest stuff in the worldthat's what it is and yet everyone...

...largely because I was fortunate to have some amazing teachers growing up who made learning fun (or at the very least not miserable). My goal is to do the same for each one of the students who I work with, and find ways to make even the most abstract concepts or complex math problems "click"...
