Class overview

My teaching style is rooted in engagement, adaptability, and conceptual clarity. I aim to make learning not only effective but also enjoyable by breaking down complex topics into digestible, relatable concepts. I incorporate real-world examples, visual aids, and storytelling techniques to deepen understanding and spark curiosity. I tutor a diverse range of subjects—including Algebra 2, Geometry, Calculus, Statistics, Pre-Algebra, Trigonometry, and even foundational math for younger learners. My students range from elementary to college-level, including AP and honors track students, homeschoolers, and those preparing for standardized tests like the SAT, ACT, or GRE. To reinforce learning, I design custom practice drills, formative quizzes, and challenge problems that promote critical thinking. I also track progress through regular assessments and provide constructive feedback to both students and parents.
