Russell
Math Genius Makes Algebra through Calculus Fun and Easy
! Due to health problems, I am temporarily unavailable for tutoring.! For many years I've tutored math, been employed as a mathematician, and worked on mathematical discoveries. I've worked wonders with students one on one using two deep principles: (1) If you understand the math, you will easily remember the formulas and know how to apply them. (2) Solving complex math problems involves breaking them up into small easy steps (which is teachable). I teach students how to tap their inner g... Read more

Peggy
Better in Math

When tutoring students in math, I help them to know the methodology and to understand the reasoning behind it. So they have a better chance to be able to solve the current problems, to build a better math foundation, and yet to have fun with it as well. I work with the students around their class materials and assignments. Also, if it is needed, I could pick a few additional problems to enhance what they've learned. This connects their school work and would fill the gaps around the subjects... Read more

I created the the Symmetry, Shape and Space course at Marylhurst University. A second title could be Geometry for Fine Arts students. This course is popular because I apply mathematics to art and nature. Spirals and the golden ratio are used to analyze art from the pyramids to Mondrian. Students count petals on flowers to discover Fibonacci numbers, 1. 1. 2. 3. 5. 8. 13. etc. Students work with compass, string and scissors to design geometric shapes in the same way that Euclid taught ab...
