About your tutor
Math is an essential tool for all scientific discovery as well as academic excellence in the sciences. While I have no formal mathematics tutoring experience, I have consistently helped class mates and friends as an informal tutor, and I personally always use mathematical analytical approaches in my tutoring and my own personal projects very often. As an example, I used linear algebra to model the south Korean population using data of the year 2023 in a simplified Leslie Matrix model, and alongside this project I have worked on programming a machine learning algorithm using statistical inference and used this script to analyse data obtained through my time as a cognitive neuroscience research assistant.
Ismail graduated from University of Notre Dame
Class overview
I focus on using a visual and fundamental based approach to deepening understanding of topics. Having a visual framework to ask questions makes it easier to get comfortable with the abstractness of mathematics, and due to the nature of the building blocks of math as being crucial, ensuring that those fine details are well understood is crucial to me, and so I always try to cover any aspect of a topic that I believe are crucial to full understanding. Of course, this is catered to the level of understanding required by the student, and so I make sure to tailor my explanation of topics based on the needs of each particular student. I am able to cover a wide array of topics in mathematics, including calculus, geometry, linear algebra, and other common branches.

Mathematics concept taught by Ismail
Ismail assisted Janette with her enzyme kinetics homework, clarifying the Michaelis-Menten equation and the effects of different enzyme inhibitors on KM and Vmax. They discussed how to interpret Lineweaver-Burk plots and calculate kinetic parameters from experimental data. They scheduled a follow-up session for next Thursday at 6:30 PM to continue working on the homework and review additional problems.

Ismail is helping Janette with chemistry and enzyme kinetics homework. They review calculations involving volume conversions, the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, Kcat, KM, catalytic efficiency, and the effects of different enzyme inhibitors (uncompetitive and competitive) on Vmax and KM. They discuss problem-solving strategies, equation derivation, and the interpretation of Lineweaver-Burk plots. They plan to continue working together.

Ismail is tutoring Janette in pH calculations and acid-base chemistry, using the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation and concepts like pH curves and buffer regions. He explains how to determine pH changes based on initial conditions, mole ratios, and the addition of acids or bases, emphasizing the importance of understanding the log ratio of base to acid. Janette struggles with the complexity of the calculations, so Ismail plans to provide more example problems in their next session.

Strong Acids/Bases
Moles and Ratios
Initial vs. Final pH
Logarithms in pH Calculations
Ismail worked with Clarence on physics, focusing on rotational motion, angular momentum, and problem-solving strategies. Clarence reviewed concepts and worked through problems from previous quizzes, and Ismail provided tailored explanations and notes. They agreed to continue weekly sessions and Ismail will send Clarence additional practice problems and the course book title.

Ismail tutored Samantha on various thermal physics topics, including thermal radiation, conduction, linear expansion, calorimetry, and kinetic energy of gases. Samantha practiced applying relevant equations to solve problems, particularly focusing on textbook questions. Ismail offered to provide further assistance and answer questions via Wingy as Samantha prepares for her exam.
Thermal Radiation
Molar Mass
Conduction Equation
Calorimetry
RMS Speed and Kinetic Energy
Ismail tutored Jabari on calculus, specifically focusing on integration techniques such as trigonometric substitution and various convergence tests for series. They worked through several example problems, using graphing tools to visualize convergence and discussing strategies for recognizing appropriate tests. They encountered a challenging convergence problem and decided to revisit it later, and Ismail offered to send Jabari notes summarizing different integration techniques.
Trig Substitution
Integration by Parts
Definite Integrals & Arc Tan
Convergence Tests
