About Me

I spent 2 years as a calculus tutor in college and it was one of the most rewarding aspects of my academic career. I received a bachelor's degree in Mathematics from Stonehill College, and I want to use the knowledge I gained from my experience to help students learn and grow. I tutor algebra, calculus, statistics and geometry, among other math related subjects. In my experience, the most effective way to approach tutoring is with patience. I think school curricula can put a lot of pressure on students to absorb new information very quickly. This pressure can be counterproductive, and I prefer to emphasize setting a pace with which the student is comfortable. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy gaming, baseball, watching movies, reading and hanging out with friends.

Q&A with Joshua

My teaching philosophy is to be patient with students, and to listen to their thoughts and concerns. I find that the people who best knows how to motivate students are the student themselves. I strive to be open minded and flexible in my approach to teaching and learning.
