Luis Armando - Know your tutor
My name is Luis Casso, students can call me Lucho. I've been an unofficial tutor for three years already, and my passion lies in teaching mathematics to anyone who needs help. I helped students from various academic levels, ranging from the last year of high school to undergraduate college students. I can help with any topic up to Calculus I, and I will find time for teaching and making sure that every student who requires my help finds all the sources they need. As a math major student, I got to understand how maths could be harder for any student and how that made every high school student to have some sort of rejection towards the topic, but I personally wanted to become a math teacher because I think that everyone can learn math, and math can be used to teach not only as a school subject, but a way to understand the world and how it works. That is why teaching is my passion.

Class overview
My teaching style goes hand in hand with making sure students understand the why behind things. Every formula has a reason to exist, and students need to grasp the logical process behind the terminology for a more solid kind of learning — rather than just memorizing formulas they’ll likely forget. I’m very patient and interactive when teaching, and I always try to go at a pace that students find comfortable. The topics I can teach are varied in content, and I find it easy to identify areas of mathematics that require specific logical processes. At the same time, I can teach different strategies and tricks so that students learn through mnemonic devices or visual examples — helping them understand how to approach any exercise or problem they encounter. I have experience working with several students and have been able to connect with them in different ways to help them understand the problems presented. Once they become comfortable with the concepts, they reach the solutions much more quickly.

Mathematics concepts taught by Luis Armando
The Student and Tutor worked through a summer math packet, focusing on key mathematical concepts. They practiced multi-digit multiplication, correctly reading and understanding the place value of large numbers, and accurately plotting points on a coordinate plane. The session concluded with the Student demonstrating proficiency in comparing decimal numbers; the next session was rescheduled due to the Student's graduation.
Multi-Digit Multiplication
Reading Large Numbers and Place Value
Efficient Multiplication Setup
Coordinate Plane and Ordered Pairs
Comparing Decimal Numbers
The session centered on foundational mathematics, specifically covering coordinate planes, ordered pairs, and X and Y tables. Student and Tutor practiced identifying patterns in data and solving for unknown variables using algebraic equivalences. The next class is scheduled for Thursday.
Cartesian Coordinate Plane Fundamentals
Plotting Points and Basic Geometric Shapes
X and Y Tables (Introduction to Functions)
Solving Simple Linear Equations
Ratios
Proportions
and Real-World Equivalences
Efficient Division with Powers of Ten
The tutor and student reviewed line plots, focusing on how to interpret data, perform operations with fractional values on line plots, and understand the relationship between fractions and decimals. They worked through examples to solidify these concepts and prepared for future lessons on decimals.
Fractions and Decimals on Number Lines
Operations with Fractions in Context
The Concept of 'Betweenness' in Numbers
Understanding Line Plots
The student and tutor reviewed logarithmic differentiation, practicing how to apply logarithm properties to simplify a complex function before differentiation. They discussed the process of implicit differentiation and the chain rule. No specific homework was assigned, but the session was preparation for an upcoming exam.
Logarithmic Differentiation Strategy
Chain Rule in Differentiation
Logarithm Properties in Differentiation
The Tutor and Student reviewed key calculus topics for an upcoming final exam, including anti-derivatives, areas and volumes using Riemann sums, disk method, and washer method. They worked through several example problems together, and the Student practiced applying these techniques.
Applications of Antiderivatives: Position
Velocity
and Acceleration
Definite Integrals and Natural Logarithms
Approximating Integrals: Riemann Sums
Integration Methods for Volumes of Revolution
The student and tutor reviewed concepts related to integral calculus, including calculating the area between curves and the volume of solids of revolution using the washer method. They worked through several example problems to solidify understanding and prepare for upcoming assessments.
Finding Integration Limits for Volumes
Integration with Respect to y
Area Between Curves
Volume of Revolution: Washer Method
