Fun Facts
Last year, I received math textbooks for Christmas AND my birthday. I'm really passionate about mathematics and hope to be a professor and researcher after I finish school. I'm very proud of my book collection, even though a lot of the books are just there to make me look smart. I'm a pretty great singer, but only when alone in my car.
About Me
I'm a freshman mathematics major at the University of Missouri, hoping to transfer to Washington University in St. Louis in the future and go to grad school at the University of Chicago for mathematics. Ultimately, I want to teach and research open problems in math.
Experience
I've had lots of informal experience tutoring and helping friends in geometry, algebra and calculus. I hope to gain some formal experience from Frog Tutoring and have the opportunity to work with lots of people who need help understanding mathematics.
Approach
When helping someone with mathematics, I do my best to bring some sort of intuition to the problem. I really believe that all problems in math can be understood intuitively, as opposed to rote memorization and application. I want to help students understand why the methods taught in class actually work, in order to enrich the ability to apply them.

Calculus I Tutoring
I got college credit for this class by dual-enrolling with a local technical college my senior year of high school, which required an intensive second final exam. I've had plenty of informal experience in tutoring this subject! I help and have helped friends, family and my girlfriend on a regular basis. Calculus is fascinating, and it can be learned intuitively, so I hope to help students achieve an understanding of it.
Calculus 2 Tutoring
I'm currently taking this course in the Fall 2015 semester; however, much of the material was covered in my high school course. I've also had lots of informal experience in tutoring this subject! During high school, I helped out my friends with this material on a regular basis. Calculus is fascinating, and it can be learned intuitively, so I hope to help students achieve an understanding of it.
College Algebra Tutoring
In high school, I took Algebra I and II. I received a high B in Algebra I freshman year and an A in Algebra II. I also have done lots of work in calculus since, which requires constant exercise of algebra techniques.
Math Tutoring
Mathematics is my major and my greatest interest. I've taken many classes and studied many books on mathematics, and I'm confident I can be helpful in any subject area. I hope to help bring an intuitive understanding of math concepts.
Pre Calculus Tutoring
The summer before my senior year, I took a Pre-Calculus course and a Trig course through MU Online. This required me to learn and stay on top of the material over the course of three months. I received a B in Pre-Calculus. Since then, I've done lots of work in calculus, which requires constant application of these techniques.
Trigonometry Tutoring
The summer before my senior year, I took a Pre-Calculus course and a Trig course through MU Online. This required me to learn and stay on top of the material over the course of three months. I received an A in the Trig unit. In addition, I've done lots of work in calculus since then, which requires constant use of trigonometric techniques.
Algebra Tutoring
In high school, I took Algebra I and II. I received a high B in Algebra I freshman year and an A in Algebra II. I also have done lots of work in calculus since, which requires constant exercise of algebra techniques.
Calculus Tutoring
I learned many calculus concepts through self-study, and cemented my learning through a very intensive high school course. I dual-enrolled this course at a local technical college for college credit, which required a comprehensive exam. I'm now enrolled in Calculus II at MU. Calculus is a very cool subject, and I hope to bring intuitive understanding to anyone who needs it.
Calculus AP Tutoring
I learned many calculus concepts through self-study, and cemented my learning through a very intensive high school course. I dual-enrolled this course at a local technical college for college credit, which required a comprehensive exam. I'm now enrolled in Calculus II at MU. I also greatly enjoy tackling challenging problems in calculus, and hope to bring a clearer understanding to anyone who needs it.
