I am a tutor with 3 years of experience who has excelled at mathematics from an early age, having made it to the USAMO. I have a Bachelor's degree in Physics from Caltech and a Master's in Mathematical Finance from Rutgers. I have experience tutoring Algebra, Calculus, and Trigonometry online. I believe in using analogies or bringing up simple examples to help students grasp concepts. It makes me happy to see my students succeed. Outside of academia, I spent seven years designing mathematics for slot games using probability, combinatorics, and discrete math. I am considering a career as an actuary. I have played chess competitively for several decades.
