...Business minor. I have a wide range of tutoring experiences in many subjects, but my strengths lie in mathematics, science, and ACT test prep areas. Having struggled myself the first time I took standardized tests, I understand that even with a solid knowledge foundation tests like the ACT require a substantial amount of exam specific preparation. While my engineering background provides me the opportunity to tutor more advanced math, science, and engineering subjects, I enjoy...

I also currently tutor statistics and mathematics to college students here at Carleton. I believe that all students are capable of learning and try to cater my instruction to the learning styles of my students. When doing math, it is easy to get discouraged and feel like we will never understand something. In reality, being stuck on a...

...grade level. I make sure the student is sure of all concepts before going forward, as I believe having a solid grasp of fundamentals and prior concepts is essential in understanding new ideas in Maths. I've achieved a BS in Mathematics from the University of Alaska, Anchorage. In my opinion, mathematics is a series of puzzles where you simply need to find and use the correct tools to connect the dots and solve them.
