Award-Winning Calculus Tutors serving Minneapolis, MN

...students, and I like to find ways to connect the dots to help my students have a better grasp of difficult concepts. While I have tutored a variety of subjects, such as math, economics, chemistry, finance, and linguistics, I now focus on tutoring math, primarily, since it is my passion. I have a very flexible tutoring style, and my approach strongly depends on each of my students' needs. The goal is for students to leave...

...subjects, such as calculus courses, physics, chemistry, programming (python), french, and writing courses. Additionally, I took many AP classes throughout high school which enabled me to enter college with over 30 credits already completed. I have spent two years tutoring in the past and have gained experience learning how to work best with struggling students. I enjoy teaching and helping others learn, be it for a specific subject, test preparation (ACT, SAT or AP), or...

...students and colleagues in both academic and professional environments. As a research engineer at Seagate Technology for over 20 years, and later as a data scientist at Optum, I regularly mentored junior engineers, interns, and team members in technical subjects ranging from mathematics and physics to data science and machine learning. These experiences taught me how to break down complex ideas into accessible, engaging lessons tailored to the learner's background. My educational background includes a...

...engineering at the University of Virginia. Over the past five years I've taught quite a few lab courses, mostly in electronics for biomedical students. I enjoy helping to guide students to a better understanding, so they can explain a concept in their own words (not just in my words). I like to draw out visual explanations whenever possible, for math and science concepts. I've been excited about all kinds of science for pretty much all...

...younger siblings taking them, it was natural to spend time answering their questions and working through problems with them. Having graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Mechanical Engineering, I was oftentimes called upon by my peers to help explain a difficult concept, or work through a difficult exercise. In addition to my extensive education in mathematics, I also worked at a Writing tutor at Roger Williams University in the Center for Academic Development.

...schools, tutoring all levels of math from algebra to Calculus II. Most recently, I worked with algebra and geometry students at Southwest High School in Minneapolis. I believe that I can use my previous experiences to effectively establish a positive tutor-student relationship with a wide variety of students, and that my knowledge and experience as a tutor will allow me to improve both comprehension and academic performance in a way that students find enjoyable.

...decided to take my enthusiasm for math and help others feel the same way, and with two of my classmates founded a student-to-student tutoring club. Our club had great success and we even received a local Rotary Club award. After graduating from Rosemount High School in the Spring of 2014 with a 3.96 GPA and in the top 5% of my class, I continued to help friends and classmates in college with math assignments. I...

...math tutoring center. I loved being able to work one-on-one with students and see their growth as they started to understand the material. I strongly believe that understanding concepts is just as important as being able to work out technical problems, and that all students (regardless of perceived mathematical intelligence) have the ability to do so. I also understand how mathematics functions to gatekeep some students from certain majors and jobs later in life, and...

...and began developing starting materials for non-linear optics liquid crystals polymers. I tutored various chemistry subjects through a free service for the students at Montana State. I thoroughly enjoyed being able to work one-on-one with students. Chemistry is a complex subject and developing a students learning style and being able to adapt the information to the students needs is extremely important. Everyone learns in a slightly different way and I feel that my diverse knowledge...

...are biology and chemistry, but I enjoy physics and humanities courses as well. My teaching experience includes teaching and tutoring summer school math (and doing some test prep work) to high school students in Rochester, MN. I also have given saxophone lessons. I love teaching, and I believe strongly in active, problem based learning. For science courses, I have considerable experience working in two cancer research labs, so I can help put that material in...

...most frequently consulted for tutoring in General Writing, Mathematics and Computer Science. Those have been the trend, but not the extent, of my tutoring experience. I am proficient and proven in tutoring a vast number of subjects. I enjoy tutoring because gaining, sharing and inspiring knowledge is a part of who I am. I treasure the chance to watch the unique intelligence of people around me unfold. It's an adventure to encounter and systematically overcome problems...

...I do not have any formal experience with teaching, I have spent much of my academic career tutoring friends and family to help them succeed in school, and I have personally improved the grades of many of my peers through studying sessions with me by as much as 30%. I am a friendly and casual tutor, but my enthusiasm for helping others to learn is likely my most important quality as a tutor. I would...

I am a recent graduate from St. Olaf College in Northfield, MN where I studied Math and Classics. While at St. Olaf I spent three years tutoring for the on-campus Academic Support Center. I love being able to share my passion for Math and Latin, both of which are generally under appreciated subjects that people often struggle with. I want everyone to be able to see that they are capable of excelling.

...and small children where I was also able to teach a Spanish class. I spent the summer in a summer camp in Turkey where I help teenagers and kids with their everyday life and activities in English. While I love Physics and Math, I am tutoring several Math topics, such as, Algebra, Calculus, Pre-Algebra, Pre-Calculus and also Spanish and English. I must say my favorite topic to tutor is Calculus because it helps you understand...

I enjoy helping students learn material in a way they can remember and apply in future coursework.... Perseverance trumps brilliance every time. Ask questions and work hard, and there's nothing you won't be able to understand.... I would begin by asking a few questions to see where a student is. I would then provide a useful note sheet and go over a refresher of some of the concepts we would be focusing on.... I would talk...

I would describe myself as happy, upbeat and zealous for life. I am excited about the present and the future and therefore typically in a good mood and motivated for life.

My undergraduate degree is in Electrical Engineering. My Master's Degree is in International Education. ... My educational...

...much like learning a foreign language: listening and reading is much easier than speaking and writing. It is all too easy to fall into the trap of believing that if you come to class and understand what the instructor is saying, you don't need to practice the material. Accordingly, I emphasize the need to practice "speaking" the language on a regular basis and to receive immediate feedback on one's learning. In my free time I...

...a Master Tutor Certification. Some of the subjects I have tutored include College Algebra, Precalculus, Calculus I-III, Differential Equations with Linear Algebra, Discrete Mathematics, and Statistics. I believe that every student has the ability to problem solve and think through math problems. Sometimes students just need help learning how to use their textbooks and resources. I want to help students learn at their own pace because in mathematics it is important to learn and actually...

...Aeroelasticty. The most important aspect of my teaching style is demonstrating patience and commitment to the student. I want the student to feel comfortable communicating with me what they are struggling with so I can understand what his or her strengths and weaknesses are. This allows me to tailor my lessons to the students needs and teach more effectively, by "speaking their language". I make it my goal to learn from the student about their...

My philosophy towards learning is never give up. We all can learn something new! It is only a matter of understanding which learning method works best for each individual learner and ascertaining the skill-sets needed. In my experience helping students , I have...
