My past students and friends say that my face lights up when I start talking about math (especially calculus). Between my Applied Mathematics degree from the University of Rochester and my Eagle Scout award, I have natural passions for mathematics and helping people. Let me combine these passions for you as your future tutor.... My ultimate aim is for my students to master their material. I believe that any person can learn any subject if they believe they can. This confidence with the material will come as I assist my students and they become more comfortable with their (now growing) abilities.
