Kofi: Des Plaines tutor

Certified Tutor

I hold a Master of Science in Applied Geospatial Science and a bachelor's degree in Geomatic Engineering, and I have a deep passion for helping students excel academically. My tutoring journey has been incredibly rewarding, allowing me to support students in developing confidence and a solid understanding of challenging concepts. I currently tutor ArcGIS, geometry, and algebra, and I particularly enjoy assisting students with preparation. Watching them overcome obstacles and achieve their goals motivates me to refine my teaching methods.
I specialize in tutoring mathematics and geospatial science, and my favorite subjects to tutor are geometry and algebra. I find great satisfaction in breaking down complex concepts into simple, relatable ideas that resonate with students. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, encouragement, and creating an engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and exploring new strategies.
Outside of academics, I am passionate about tennis and traveling. Tennis teaches me discipline and perseverance while traveling enriches my perspective and introduces me to diverse cultures and ideas. I aim to bring this same curiosity and determination to every tutoring session, inspiring students to approach their studies with confidence and enthusiasm.
