Students and or Parents: Thank you for reviewing my work. I have over 5-years of experience tutoring subjects such as Algebra, Trigonometry, Precalculus, Calculus (all areas), Linear Algebra, Differential Equations and Physics with outstanding results! Historically, if any student sticks with me for a few hours per week, during the semester, they easily finish the course with an A or at least a high B. My goal in life is to help students understand complex material with ease. I intend on pursuing a career as a math/physics professor. This means you will likely not find someone as dedicated to understanding the information and reiterating as I am. I ensure my utmost attention to every student I work with i.e. I make myself available outside of sessions via text/email for any questions a student may have while studying, I offer additional sessions during exam weeks (per bulk tutoring option), and I have thousands of free resources I have created via my YouTube channel, website, and books I have written on the topics. All of which are free with my services. Thank you again and I look forward to assisting you!
