Joseph: Akron tutor
Certified Tutor in Akron, NY
Hello! I am recent grad from UW-Madison in Mathematics. I love teaching math because I am a firm believer that everyone is capable of understanding math and helping students realize that within themselves is incredibly gratifying. I particularly like teaching calculus because that's where math starts to get fun, students begin developing a type of thinking that I affectionately refer to as mathematical freestyling.
