My favorites topics in Pre-calculus are trigonometric equations and identities, matrices, conics, sequences/series and imaginary/complex numbers. Most of my Pre-Calculus students have a hard time with Trigonometric equations and identities which provide the basis for of the integration methods. (read more)

...I have a Masters in Mathematics. I have completed undergraduate and graduate coursework in Differential Equations, Multivariable Calculus and Matrix Algebra, Non-linear System analysis and Functional analysis. I have a strong grasp of Calculus as I work daily with physicists translating calculus concepts into coding algorithms. (read more)
...I enjoyed these activities so much, in fact, that about eleven years ago I decided to broaden my education outreach efforts and start tutoring, focusing mainly on physics and math, including AP Physics and AP Calculus. My goals are to improve each student's conceptual understanding of a subject ... (read more)
