Excellent session with VIctoria
📕 I have consulted students internationally on how to systematically improve their SAT and ACT scores. Overnight success is a myth, and entrance to a top university does not come as a miracle, but through hard work, determination, and knowing the nuances of the admissions process. 📗 SAT and ACT preparation often begins several years before submitting university applications. It is never too early to start gathering resources and learning tips and tricks for maximizing your chances at admission to the university of your dreams. 📘 As your counselor, I am well-equipped to advise you on test preparation at any point during your journey towards university. You may also request consultation on university applications, including personal essay tips and a timeline tailored to your academic and extracurricular activities and goals. Together, we can determine which path is best for you.
🦠 Learn science with a Medical Researcher! I have performed research encompassing a variety of Biology disciplines and I am equipped to teach general biology for students. The key to scientific learning is consistency. I offer regular lessons that facilitate habits of discipline and intellectual curiosity. We may delve into peripheral topics as well, such as the ethics behind experimentation. In addition to general topics, my knowledge is current on the following exams: 🧪 AP Biology 🌱 AP Environmental Science 🧠 AP Psychology
➕ A strong foundation in Mathematics is essential for developing a critical mind. The value of Mathematics lies not only in its elegance for scientific research and technological developments, but Mathematics also demands a spotlight in unsophisticated, mundane life chores such as splitting the dinner bill, lending to a friend, or checking and double-checking that the government hasn't overtaxed you. ➖ My main academic training is in Mathematics; I received my Bachelors in Applied Mathematics from the University of California San Diego in 2016, and my Masters in Mathematical Engineering from Universitat Politècnica de Catalunya in 2017. Since completing my coursework, I have worked in university research and I am now pursuing a PhD in Tactile Neurophysiology at the University of Gothenburg. ✖️ I have extensive tutoring experience in Mathematics ranging from primary school to university level subjects. I am comfortable with developing a curriculum tailored to your needs or following one that you or your course proposes. In the past, I have assisted students of all levels in: Calculus, SAT Prep, Algebra, Arithmetic, Statistics, MATLAB, and Trigonometry. These topics are not exclusive to my repertoire. ➗ I hold firmly that a student must bring motivation and that a teacher foster this with direction, challenges, and encouragement. The process of learning is a two-way street. Ultimately, your goal is to be an independent learner, and I will help you to become one.
✈️ Dreaming of moving to New York? London? Sydney? Improve your English with a Native English speaker from California!

Mathematics (Applied Math, Calculus, Linear Algebra, Geometry, IBM Exams, Entrance Exams): Primary/High School/Bachelor/Master Students
Mathematics is all about learning basic elements with which you can create explosions, interactions and much more desired computations. It is the heart of every science known and without it, even the text that I am writing right now would not work (recall binary numbers). I have always been passionate about Math and during primary and high school I attended many Regional Math Olympiads where I usually won the top 5 places. During this period, I got the chance to be trained by university professors and gained knowledge of many complex math concepts at a really young age. This made it possible for me to afterward be able to explain these concepts in a brief and clear manner to my fellow students. I aspire to visualize everything with everyday life and when students see this connection, the puzzle is finally solved. We can cover all of the branches of mathematics together at the desired level and degree level. Starting from Algebra, Geometry, Calculus, Probability, Trigonometry and much more, we will build that mathematic intuition in no time!

We strive together to achieve academic excellence, overcoming the shortcomings and difficulties encountered by your child. Studies will become a pleasant experience for him. In addition to the courses, I can also help with school orientation, identifying their preferences and highlighting the advantages and benefits of a fulfilling educational ambition. The sessions generally take place according to the following stages: 1️⃣ The first sessions are devoted to the assessment of the student's level in order to detect existing gaps. 2️⃣ Next, we create a personalized plan to address these gaps, including the number of hours of work needed, specific areas to focus on, and appropriate training and development exercises. 3️⃣ We stay in constant contact with the student's class teacher, to keep up to date with the latest requirements and ensure a consistent approach. 4️⃣ Subsequently, I provide exams similar to those that are likely to be asked in class, to prepare the student effectively. 5️⃣ Upon request, I write a regular report, usually monthly, to keep parents informed of their child's progress throughout their course. I adapt my methodology according to the specific needs of each student, thus offering them a personalized and adapted work approach. In addition, I offer crash courses for students preparing for the start of the school year, allowing them to start the year well prepared, with a solid lead on the school curriculum. If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me. I will be happy to help you.

Statistics and R – from (Uni) classes to a Dissertation, by a Cambridge Grad
Statistics provides a valuable framework for analysing data and formalising how to derive conclusions from it. It is based on a very mathematical fundament, but stretches out to out-of-the box methods available in every computer. For whom: - You have a School class in Statistics or R - You are writing a BSc/MSc Dissertation and you are lost: for example, you have a questionnaire and you need to analyse the data in there to write your thesis. - You have practicals or need Stats for work. You can learn: - If required, mathematical foundations, formulas and logic underlaying statistics - What is a p-value, what do all these words like factor analysis, normal distribution and test ACTUALLY MEAN and WHY do we need those? - How to import your dataset and analyse it with R.

James
Maths and Further Maths for GCSE, A-Level, MAT, STEP and TMUA
Third-year Mathematics student at University of Cambridge. I have been tutoring Maths for more than 3 years now at a variety of levels and have always received exceptional feedback. The way I structure my sessions is to start with a recap of the previous session and spend some time resolving any problems the student has faced when tackling questions between sessions. I then like to spend the remainder of the class tackling a mixture of problems from past papers. This keeps the sessions varied and also helps the student to develop good exam technique which can often make all the difference. For students applying to study Maths at university, I can also assist with mock interviews and personal statement advice.
