I have had a wonderful career and now I would like to give back in the ways my best professors changed my life.I can teach/tutor any level of math. I was all but dissertation as an undergrad at Michigan. I keep in touch with famous research mathematicians to this day.I can teach/tutor most economics and all econometrics. I took the doctoral level sequence as an undergrad, and I keep in touch with professors at Harvard and Princeton (my mentor at Michgan passed away recently). I also know economists from the President's Council of Economic Advisors when I was in the White House.I spent 40 years writing briefs and learning writing skills from sentence construction to writing theses about literature, from great writers. There is, as Hemingway said, no great writing only great re-writing. This requires hard work and patience and some of it boils down to simple rules, after which one can develop one's style.My main goals are to simplify concepts, and empathize with the same learning difficulties I had. Some "beginning" courses are really hard and deal with problems no one could solve until the 17th, 18th, and 19th centuries! People, esp Professors and teachers, need to see some of these problems from that perspective.Finally, I am not interested in simply doing someone's homework for them, but in helping them learn concepts and application -- to get the best grades they can get.

I am a freshman at Columbia University, currently pursuing a degree in Computer Science. In high school, I was a member of Mu Alpha Theta where I taught students geometry and algebra for two years. I tutor Computer Science, Math subjects up to Calculus III, Physics, and ACT Prep. In my tutoring experiences, I find that learning and adapting to your interests and areas of expertise helps you understand the material on a much deeper level. In my free time, I typically program applications and games in C, C++, Python, and Java.

Hi, my name is Tanishka Lakhotia and I'm a rising junior at Georgia Tech majoring in Finance and Computer Science. I love meeting new people, sharing knowledge and learning from them!

I have an MA in Statistics, several years of teaching experience as an adjunct professor at Marymount Manhattan College, and experience as a private tutor in math and statistics. I have also recently passed exam P and want to help other students pass it as well! I enjoy working with individual students and watching their understanding improve.

I attended Johns Hopkins University, and am working toward a degree in Applied Mathematics and Statistics. I have been tutoring since I was in high school, where I volunteered to help students struggling in math. In the past, I also taught at a summer music camp, volunteered to lead writing workshops in a rehab center, and worked at a math tutoring business. My personal philosophy toward learning is that one’s education should be well balanced. In my free time I like to read, work on visual art, and play instruments. I am most passionate about math though, because it can be related to any subject, and because the skills that are developed through mathematical thinking can help create success in other areas. I try to use multiple approaches while teaching, and present ideas as visually and tangibly as possible. One of the dangers of learning math is that students memorize the method for solving a problem but do not realize the underlying concepts. I do my best to ensure that students recognize the broader concepts. Because math builds on itself, it is also very important to look at past topics that relate to students’ current lessons. There is not always time for teachers do this in a classroom setting. Often you’ll find that a student’s struggles come from missing previous skills that are assumed as their lessons advance. My ultimate goal is to help students build their confidence with math and to set them up for success in their future studies, whether those studies are directly or indirectly related.

I am currently double majoring in Math and Secondary Education at Temple University. I've been tutoring for a couple of years now, and I learn something new every day! My favorite classes to tutor are Algebra, Pre-Calculus, and Calculus (AP, BC, I, and II). I love coming up with ways to explain the same concepts in different ways, for example visual representations and real life scenarios. I truly believe anyone can achieve their math goals with the right mindset, and I love helping students meet these math goals!

I am a graduate of the University of Colorado, Boulder. In December of 2014, I received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Astrophysics with minors in Computer Science and Physics. Since graduation I have hiked from Mexico to Canada on the Pacific Crest Trail, a journey which I learned a tremendous amount about myself and the environment which we inhabit. This period of introspection made it clear that I should seek to be the best person I possibly can, and that I should use my talents to their fullest. While my personal goal is to become a professional programmer, I am also passionate about teaching. During college I worked for two semesters as a Teaching Assistant for the class "Introduction to Scientific Data Analysis and Computing" and for one semester as a Learning Assistant for "Astronomy 2." In each of these positions I worked directly with students, either lecturing or providing one-on-one help during office hours. I have a large amount of experience teaching first time programmers with great success. I pride myself in being able to break down difficult or abstract scientific, logical, and mathematical concepts and present them in a more tangible way that facilitates meaningful learning. When I'm not out hiking, biking, or playing music I want to be helping you to learn mathematics, astronomy, physics, or programming.

I am currently a junior mathematics major at the University of Portland. I am originally from Seattle, where I attended Lakeside School. I tutor most subjects in middle and high school math, and also work with students to prepare for SAT mathematics. This year I have volunteered at a high school in North Portland as a writing tutor as well as a math and science tutor. Previous to that, I have assisted dorm residents at UP in college mathematics courses. Besides math I enjoy traveling with friends, playing basketball, listening to alternative and country music, and eating my mother's cooking whenever I'm home. Looking forward to working with you!

Let's be patient, persistent, pause, and perform better and better.I've been happy to help dozens of students with math and physics, and am immediately prepared to help you with arithmetic, algebra, basic geometry, trigonometry, introductory calculus and introductory university physics.I'll be reviewing and adding subjects that I can immediately aid.Good luck.

I've worked with students teaching and tutoring in multiple capacities in the past and enjoy it immensely. I have tutored elementary school students with ADD in English and Math, high school students in Pre-Calculus, and college students on the brink of failure in Anatomy, Histology, Physiology, Biology, Calculus and many other subjects. While in medical school, I have tutored other students on the higher level subjects of medical school including Anatomy, Physiology, Pathology, and Biostatistics.I like to let the student guide my teaching style. In my experience, each student needs individualized tutoring. Personally, I am a visual learner, but I know that not everyone learns that way, so I accommodate to each student's needs. My first student with ADD showed me the range of needs each student can have. Other students have different needs, and I like to push my students to their full potential.Communication is key to success in the tutor-student relationship, and I work hard to make sure that we both understand the commitment and the goals that we are working towards. Each session should have a goal that we go over in the beginning of the session and agree on and if time permits, at the end, go over that goal and see what we want to review for next session.While I try to push my students, I also am very lighthearted and like to have fun during the actual session. The more enjoyable the session, the more information will be retained and understood. I consider myself and the student to be a team trying to achieve a set goal, so I am always open to suggestions on my style or approach to tutoring.I hope that I get the chance to work with you and help you achieve your goals, whatever they may be, and have some fun along the way!
