Tutor Information

About

I’m A.J.! I am a senior in chemical engineering at the University of Kansas and I will be graduating spring 2025. In addition, I have taken and excelled in college classes like calculus, organic chemistry, and fluid mechanics to name a few. In high school, I graduated with sigma cum Laude honors and had a 3.9 GPA on a 4.0 scale. I graduated in the top 10% of my class. Also, I scored 5’s on my AP calc AB, AP micro, and AP macro exams. I have had years of previous tutoring experience on tutor.com. On that platform I tutored mainly algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus. My approach to tutoring is simple and easy. I must say, many students enjoy my approach because it makes the answer very apparent to them. My method is to break the problem down and solve parts of the problem. Then put these parts together like an easy four piece puzzle. I ask questions to check the understanding of the student so that I know where to start. This is because math often requires you to understand many small concepts in order to solve a problem. I have previously tutored students ranging in ages from late elementary to college. Most of my sessions have been one on one. With a mix of online and in-person depending on the student’s preferences. I always have enjoyed helping students and nothing compares to when a student has that ah ha moment. Lastly, I’m always open to suggestions or feedback from students or parents regarding my tutoring.
