About
I am a university student studying Mathematics and Computing. I took the SAT and scored 1490, with 770 in mathematics. I also received an International Bacauleareate diploma, for which I studied Higher Level Mathematics. I also have significant experience working with children, having worked at a summer camp for two summers, as a Girl Scout leader, and as a babysitter.
I am passionate about math and its applications to the world. While I am knowledgeable in most fields of mathematics, calculus is my favorite. I look forward to helping students work through problems and learn concepts and tricks in order to better understand essential mathematics. I will create a personalized study plan for your student to help them focus their studies. If you are looking for a math tutor, please let me know!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to arrange a call first to get to know the student and better understand their skill levels. From this, I can plan the next few lessons and find exercises to work through. Lessons are generally organized with us going over concepts first and then working through practice problems together. However, this is flexible to each student. I the students needs or wants, I may also give additional questions for them to practice in their free time to go over in the next session.
