- Hello, my name is Jacob Roan, and I am currently a third year student at the University of Nebraska - Lincoln.
- I am majoring in Actuarial Science, and minoring in Music, and I am also a Resident Assistant for the university.
About Me
I was born and raised in Las Vegas, Nevada, but decided to move to the Midwest for college in order to experience different weather, culture, etc. After I graduate from UNL (hopefully May 2018), I plan to become an actuary, and I will hopefully still have time to continue playing my trumpet. I was first introduced to tutoring in my junior year of high school, when my AP Calculus teacher asked for a volunteer to help a younger student in math. So, I figured that I would give it a shot. What I found, however, was that I had really been tutoring for most of my life, just through helping out friends when they needed it. In fact, I enjoyed helping others learn so much that I decided to take on more students, and I have been tutoring off and on ever since. My style of tutoring is very straight forward and direct. I believe that, especially in mathematics, the best way to master a concept is by doing as many problems as possible; there is no proper substitute for hard work. I also like to think I am quite patient, and have experience working with all three types of learning styles.
Hobbies & Interests
Playing and listening to music, video games, television, socializing, etc.
