B.S. in Math. Math Olympiads coach teaching creative problem-solving!

I'm a graduate of the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a B.S. in Mathematics.

Beyond my classroom experience at Charter Schools, I've had the pleasure of tutoring students of very different academic paths and abilities - from an elite Horace Mann AP student to Mathnasium low elementary school students. Since January 2021, I've focused on teaching Olympiad material - MOEMS, AMC 8, AMC 10, and Mathcounts. I've enjoyed using George Lenchner's (MOEMS and Creative Problem Solving) and Richard Rusczyk's books. In addition to these books, I also enjoy creating my own curriculum.

As a result of years of experience, I've become very familiar with the subject matter. I'm aware of the misconceptions and hurdles students run into and adjust the curriculum when I introduce topics to ensure it doesn't happen. What makes me a successful tutor is finding the appropriate pace and comfort for each student, including high-achieving students. My philosophy for each lesson is to ensure that after an engaging and enriching experience, the student becomes more curious about mathematics than before the lesson.
