About Tam
Hello! I hold a B.S. in mechanical engineering degree. I graduated from Penn State University- University Park. My lessons are customized according to individual needs. I help students to build a solid math foundation. I motivate students by providing examples of real-life applications of math.
I enjoy about my work because it is challenge and utilizes my strongest skills and knowledge.
I have helped a college student on calculus 1 to improve math grade from F to A-. (Before I tutored the student, in a Spring semester, the student got an F course grade on calculus 1 course and had to take the course again. I tutored the student in the summer. In the following Fall semester, the student got A- course grade.)
I have also tutored a student who gained admission to Julia Reynolds Masterman Laboratory and Demonstration School which is ranked #1 middle and high school in PA.
My friend knew that I have a solid skill in math teaching and suggested me to provide math tutoring service.
I hold a B.S. in mechanical engineering degree. I tutored math while studying in college. I have experience in math tutoring for students from 3rd-grade to college.

First, in order to find 'gaps' in student's math skill, I'll let the student to solve problems by himself / herself. Whenever the student makes a mistake, I'll stop the student and explain in details to 'fill up the gaps'.
Second, students will be given problems that relate to the 'gaps' to practice until the 'gaps' disappear.
Third, since my goal is to help students to get at least A- grade, I'll teach students to solve a problem with different methods. This way will help students to gain more knowledge.
I have worked with students from 3rd grade to college.
1. Teacher has high achievement goal in improving student's grade.
2. Teacher has patient personality.
3. Teacher makes students to enjoy learning and proud about themselves.
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
1. For a lecture materials, if students don't understand clearly about any topic. First, the students should read notes or textbooks again. If the topic still isn't clear, then students should talk to teacher.
2. For homework, while solving a problem at any step, if students have any doubt about doing it right. First, the students should read the question again. Second, the students should check work has been done on previous steps. If it still isn't clear, then the students should talk to teacher.
