Uchenna

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of St. John's University, New York. I received my bachelor's degree in Computer Science in 2017 and my MBA in Business Analytics in 2018. My programs gave me a firm grasp of mathematical concepts and their applications in real world scenarios and so I am confident teaching various levels of Math.
I have been tutoring for about 4 years. While in College, I held a position as an on-campus student tutor for 1 year. I tutored Math classes such as College Algebra, Matrices, and Statistics and also Computer Science classes. In College, I also volunteered with 2 after school programs simultaneously for 2 years. There, I provided tutoring and homework help in Math and Reading Comprehension to students in Elementary, Middle, and High school. I provide both in-person and online tutoring for students in Kindergarten to 12th grade. I tutor Math, Reading, Writing, and ELA. I most especially love to teach Math. In my time tutoring, I found that a lot of children find Math to be difficult, even scary. I too used to find Math scary! But I realized that this fear of Math is really a result of a negative and unenthusiastic mindset towards the subject. Since my time in college, I've sought to help students, most especially children, change their mindset towards Math and grow to love the subject as well. I really enjoy tutoring children in Elementary school because of their overall sunny disposition and their enthusiasm when learning. At their age, i believe their mindsets toward Math can be molded into a positive one and a solid foundation can be built for a brilliant future in Math. I also love to teach higher levels of Math such as Algebra, Geometry, and Trigonometry to middle and high school students. I want to help them get a good understanding of Math concepts, see how it can be applied to everyday life, and generally come to enjoy Math so that they do not feel discouraged from pursuing degrees in College that are Math-intensive.
In my spare time, I love cooking and baking! I'm a 'foodie'! I love to try new foods from different cultures and I love to learn new recipes and put my own twist to them.
