Casey: Thornton tutor

Certified Tutor

Hi!

My name is Casey and I am a current junior at Georgetown University studying physics and economics. The majority of my educational background is in math and science but I have a solid understanding of subjects across the board. I really enjoy working with people to break up challenging concepts into small and digestible pieces. I know the value in one-on-one help when trying to understanding a topic that one might find difficult, and would be happy to be there to answer any and all questions.

I have had informal tutoring experience, as well as jobs as a ski instructor and camp counselor working with kids. Additionally, my on-campus job is in tech support, and since they did all their own training the only real criteria for hiring was the ability to explain complicated processes in simple terms. Unfortunately, we were all sent home from Georgetown due to Corona, this I have a lot of spare time this semester and would love to spend it helping students who might need a little extra attention!

I am currently studying physics and economics at Georgetown University. Both subjects, especially physics, require a high-level math understanding. Most importantly, the require one to be very confident in all previous math learned for a strong foundation to build upon for new concepts. I have always been told by teachers that my submitted explanations for problems done in their class were neat and easy to follow.

As a side note, due to my course of study, I have long been the first message sent when my friends need help with any math involved in their classes.

Please feel free to reach out if you would like any more information or to see if I would be a good fit. I am excited to meet (or e-meet) any potential student and start to increase any area of their academic confidence that may feel like its a little behind!
