...My approach depends on the needs of the student, but I always stress problem solving and repetition, with fundamentals and theory becoming clearer with practice and teaching. I call this method guided problem solving. I teach Math through Calculus 3, including all Algebra, Geometry, and Trigonometry. (read more)
...My theoretical knowledge was heavily padded with practical experience with 5 years of research experience in a tuberculosis immunology lab at the University of Notre Dame in which a wide variety of biochemical techniques were necessary for some of the lines of research. I've helped a number of p... (read more)
...In addition, I've taught college writing at Saint Mary's College, IU-South Bend, and USC, where I was a Writing Program Coordinator, helping to oversee all of USC's college writing courses. My teaching has given me insight into how to explain grammar rules clearly, helping students learn to avoid mistakes. I have ten years of tutoring experience in elementary and higher math.

...With this way of thinking, learning is not only incredibly fun but you can achieve anything! It is so important to start with understanding the problem first, then you can work out how to solve it. I have tutored all ages and abilities, through many thousands of hours tutoring in home and online tutoring, from England to the USA - I have honed my craft. (read more)
...My engineering background gives me a deep understanding of all math subjects, but especially calculus and precalculus courses such as trigonometry. If you intend to move on from trigonometry to precalculus or even calculus, I can continue tutoring you as you continue learning higher levels of math. As an engineer it is natural to use tools such as MATLAB to solve numerical problems. (read more)
