Bio
As a sophomore engineering major in college, I love working with people in large and small groups to ensure any job is done right. I will bring the same mentality to helping students learn and grow.
I have experience tutoring students when I attended El Segundo High School. I enjoy working in large groups on college engineering projects and in study sessions. I also have younger siblings that are in school and I constantly help them understand concepts in math that they struggle with. In addition, I am considered patient and open-minded by many of my past students.

Math
I have a deep passion for learning and teaching math. I have succeeded in math throughout high school. I have also taken Calculus 1 in college with a grade of ~95%. I have also taken Calculus 2 in college with an 88%. I have also tutored many students (12-17 years old) at El Segundo High School.
Trigonometry
Having a strong foundation in Algebra and Geometry, I want to help others understand: the fundamental concepts of trigonometry and the overall applications of trigonometry with the rest of mathematics.
Algebra
Knowing how important Algebra is for every math class in high school and college, it is my priority to help students understand the fundamental concepts and techniques needed to succeed in all areas of algebra.
Calculus
Having a strong understanding of the fundamental ideas in Calculus, I want to help students learn and understand the techniques needed to overcome the challenges of integration that are heavily used in Calculus II.
Pre-calculus
Having a strong foundation in Calculus is crucial for success in higher-level math courses. This is why it is my priority to help students understand the fundamental ideas of Calculus and teach step-by-step techniques needed to solve problems in Calculus I.
Geometry
Many concepts in Geometry are used in more advanced levels of math. That is why I will do my best to deliver the simplest and most effective explanations of problems in Geometry to help students understand and prepare for applications that are needed in higher-level math courses.
