For 10+ years I have been meeting one-on-one with students, mainly high schoolers, helping them understand challenging concepts in their math and science courses, teaching them how to work problems and develop good work habits. I enjoy making complicated topics simple (without being simplistic) and understandable.
My students have ranged from those really struggling, to needing some help to survive/pass, to those who are on top and want to continue to excel.
I normally work with high school and middle school students. However, I should be able to assist with college-level introductory Statistics, math below Calculus, and probably first semester Calculus. For college-level science or economics, contact me and we can discuss your needs.
