Award-Winning Trigonometry Tutors in Roanoke, VA

...combination of passion for education, and my extensive knowledge of math, physics, and many high school AP courses, make me an enthusiastic and patient tutor. Outside of academics, I play on the club baseball team, coach baseball, enjoy playing the guitar, and love to watch the Virginia tech football team win on Saturdays.... I believe that the goal of teaching is not only to provide the student with a deeper understanding of the subject matter, but...

...Accounting and Finance. Today, I work at a CPA firm in southeastern Pennsylvania. I have tutored at Radford University and at Sylvan Learning Centers for about 2 years of combined experience.

...and how to understand it better! I tutored calculus and algebra for two years in high school, and I tutored first-year engineering students at Northwestern in basic engineering courses (mostly calculus, trigonometry, algebra, physics).

...My strongest subjects are linear algebra and pre-calculus though I am proficient at tutoring all high school and college underclassmen mathematical subjects. I hope that my passion is contagious and that all of my students leave me not only having learned the material but understanding the beauty and wonderment of it all.... Learning is about discovering the world, and teaching is about facilitating that discovery. Students need to explore without fear of stumbling along the way....

...the student needs is a further explanation of lectured material, I am also happy to provide that, but I find it is best covered within the context of particular problems: we learn best by doing, and solving homework problems is no exception. Within math, I tutor nearly every subject. Particular areas of expertise include algebra,...

...not that case. Everyone can understand math, but not everyone will understand it in the same way. My goal is to open student's minds up to math based on their way of thinking and learning style. When I'm not solving a math problem you can probably find me competing in sports or the occasional card/board...
