What clicks for most students in pre-calculus is realizing that every new topic — rational functions, trig identities, logarithmic rules — is really just algebra wearing a different outfit. Mubariz, a chemistry major at WashU with a 34 ACT, teaches the course by stripping each concept back to the al...

I am interested in Physics and Mathematics and working out practical problems from plumbing to electronics. I will someday go back for my Ph.D. in Physics but until then I am looking to grow as an engineer or computer programmer.

The leap into pre-calculus — trigonometric identities, limits, and complex functions — requires connecting ideas from every prior math course into a coherent whole. Jessica approaches each topic by identifying exactly which foundational pieces a student is missing and rebuilding from there. Her scie...

Mechanical engineering runs on the pre-calculus toolkit — parametric curves for modeling motion, trigonometric functions for analyzing forces at angles, and conic sections for designing everything from gears to pressure vessels. Jordan earned his engineering degree solving problems where sloppy func...

Trigonometric identities and the behavior of rational, exponential, and logarithmic functions are the backbone of pre-calculus, and they're also exactly the tools Anatoliy relied on throughout his medical and science coursework. He teaches these topics by showing students the patterns that carry for...

Chemical engineering at its core is applied pre-calculus — Austin spent his undergraduate years manipulating the same rational functions, exponential models, and trigonometric relationships that students encounter in this course, except embedded inside reactor design equations and thermodynamic cycl...

Most pre-calc struggles come down to one thing: students learned algebra procedures without building the intuition for how functions actually behave — and suddenly they're expected to transform, compose, and invert them fluently. Hannah's math degree means she can trace each new concept back to the ...

I'm a recent Stanford graduate (Electrical Engineering and Computer Science), and have been working at a major Management Consulting firm for a few years now. I personally scored a 2360 (out of 2400) on the SAT and 35 on the ACT and was successful in gaining admission to several top universities. I'...

I am a licensed physician from Florida who is currently changing careers. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009 and have extensive tutoring and editing experience. While a student, I became a certified writing tutor through the Critical Writing Department. Since I completed my writ...

I'm available to tutor biology, chemistry, physics, math from Algebra up through AP Calculus, SAT test prep, and French. I've been tutoring students in science and math for 7 years. I also spent 8 months working and studying in France, and have tutored high school and adult students in French. When ...
