Prior to starting online tutoring this year, I did in person tutoring for 5 semesters at my university. I’m a graduating senior in Actuarial Science and Mathematics which allows me to see the derivations and applications sides of mathematics.

My name is Ryan Freidhoff. I am currently finishing my senior year of highschool. I studied mathematics and Physics at Harvard when I was 17, I am studying math now at Drake University, I have about one year of experience working with kids from elementary age to highschool. I love tutoring, and I love helping others learn!

Instead of providing standard teaching sessions, I prefer to tailor the content of the class to the needs of individual student. I have 20 years of tutoring and 15 years of teaching (in high schools) experience. Helping students learn math and gain mathmematical reasoning skill is an achievement for me.

It drives me when I get the chance to better improve someone in their own mind. Math is such a vital tool in the society we live in today, and I just want to help others see that like I've been blessed to have been able to see....

I am currenlty employed as a licensed Professional Engineer in the state of Minnesota and have worked as a structural engineer now for 5 years. I hold a BS in Civil Engineering and a MS in Civil Engineering with a structural background from the University of Iowa that I attended from 2012-2017 on scholarship as a football player. The extent of my mathematics background extends through Differential Equations and I am looking to give back to the community by helping children, teens, and young adults in need of math tutoring....

I have worked with kids ranging from 2 and up. I started at a daycare and then on to an elementary. I have worked with special ed children and behavioral children. I love watching kids learn and grow. I want nothing more than to help them succeed! I love watching students and children learn and grow. I love to watch them succedd and reach their goals. I enjoy being a part of that journey for them.

I am a certified 5-12 math teacher currently teaching at a school district in Iowa. I have a passion for teaching and math. Students having that "aha" moment is one of my favorite parts of my job.
