My teaching style is to keep the mood light and fun while also being as clear as possible. My goal is to teach the students how to approach problems in a way that is the most intuitive as possible for each particular student. I have completed more than 80 programs, and I have experience tutoring neuro-divergent students with a wide variety of learning differences including OCD, dyslexia, dyscalculia, and ADHD. I have experience working with students that love math and I have experience working with students that loathe math. I am able to tutor from elementary level to 2nd year calculus as well as ISEE, SSAT, and SAT test preparation. I also tutor in AP and regular level Chemistry, Biology, and Physics. I grew up and currently live in Hayward, CA. I attended UC Berkeley and majored in Math and Molecular Biology with a minor in Art History. I now work as a research technologist at biomedical research non-profit, Gladstone Institutes, in the Microscopy and Histology department.
