Solomon

Certified Tutor

As a full-time Data Scientist with a Bachelor's degree in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Waterloo, I have a passion for tutoring students to impart an intuitive understanding of concepts and helping them understand the real-world applications of the topics that they are learning. I bring over 5 years of experience in teaching and tutoring, specifically in mathematics and physics. My expertise includes subjects such as AP Calculus AB, linear algebra, and statistics, where I strive to connect theoretical concepts to real-world applications. I believe that understanding the practical implications of mathematics can ignite students' interest and motivation. My approach is student-centered; I tailor my lessons to each individual's strengths and misconceptions, fostering a supportive environment where they can thrive. Witnessing a student's breakthrough moment when they grasp a challenging concept is incredibly fulfilling for me. Outside of tutoring, I work as a data scientist at a leading fintech company building industry leading machine learning models. Outside of work, I enjoy hiking and kayaking.
