About Me

Hello! My name's Josh, and I am currently an undergraduate student pursuing an honors degree in mathematics at the University of Rochester. I strongly believe that one thing that sets me apart from other tutors is my experience in theoretical mathematics classes. So if a student asks me why a certain thing is true in math (such as why the product of two negatives yields a positive, why differentiability implies continuity, etc.), I will be able to give a good, concrete reason. Having experience in other areas such as cryptography, programming, and statistics, I can also give plenty of good explanations as to why learning mathematics can be fun and important for other things. Aside from Varsity Tutors, I have also received a Teaching Assistant's position for my Honors Calculus class, and I have lots of experience with children aged 6 to 15 working as a counselor at ESF Summer Camps. One of my favorite parts of the summer camp job was explaining games and activities to children and peers, and if I could do the same thing at Varsity Tutors, I would greatly enjoy it.
