Experience
Tutored for Mathnasium for 1 year and Tutoring Club for an additional year. Have been a private tutor since September of 2024.
Experience helping students learning math K-12 up to AP Calculus. Can also help with Chemistry, Physics, and Biology.
Also 5+ experience doing academic debate in high school and college.
Teaching Methodology
Typically I will go through assignments given to students from school, but as we solve the problems I make sure the students understand the method's we are doing and the reasons why we do certain calculations.
If the student has a test coming up, I will give them a practice test based on their test review or find some study material online for them.
Why Choose Tommy?
As a tutor, I am able to relate to my students and make math seem more approachable. Often times in math courses, the greatest struggle is that the teacher already knows the content while the student does not. The teacher sometimes can struggle with understanding the content from the student's perspective.
There is where I step in. When I have my students solving math problems, I focus on their problem solving fundamentals. Making their they are confident on how to approach the problem, and less getting to the solution.
