My sessions will take place over Zoom or Google Meets. Scratch work will be shown/demonstrated on a collaborative whiteboard or Google Jamboard that can be saved for future reference. Before each session, I would prefer for the student to email me details about the content area and any associated materials they would like to go over a few days in advance in order to allow me to prepare as needed, though I am also able to work on the fly in the event of an urgent situation. In each lesson, I will go over any materials the student brings, review textbook problems and concepts, and pose several "deep-thinking" problems that go a bit above and beyond the classroom content. I will address any questions sent to me over email for free and will share any resources I find interesting/useful. Proofs/exploratory exercises will constitute a big part of every lesson. Weekly/biweekly sessions should be sufficient, though scheduling (as well as pricing) can be adjusted as needed. I can provide free hour-long trial sessions to ensure a good fit with any prospective student.

I am well-versed in the subjects that I am offering to tutor and am confident that I can guide students to their desired outcomes. My ultimate goal is seeing students succeed and as such, I will not accept payment until after the student has achieved their goal (within reason). I hope that this guarantee shows that my interests are aligned with the student and that I will work to the absolute best of my ability to help the student succeed.
