About Will

Howdy! My name is Will Gallegos, & I am a 21-year-old from San Antonio, TX. I am a senior applied mathematics & data engineering student at Texas A&M, & will be pursuing a Ph.D. in mathematics focused on quantum information theory.

I think that I am uniquely qualified to teach due to the experiences I have had in previous jobs, extracurriculars, & university courses. I understand that every person learns differently and needs different methods/styles of teaching, & am ready to provide that. Some of those experiences I was referring to are listed below:

I have been tutoring on & off for the past 5 years, while also having jobs as a student computer/printer technician, a retail associate at Gap Inc., & an assistant manager at a mom & pop restaurant.

For a couple of years, I worked as a freelance photographer focusing on providing affordable graduation & prom photos for low-income communities.

I am currently one of the two head coaches for Texas A&M’s rowing team. Under my watch, the team has earned nearly 300% more medals in the previous 2 semesters than the 2 semesters preceding my tenure, including a 3rd place finish in the Men’s 2x Grand Final at the American Collegiate Rowing Association National Championship.

At A&M, I have taken a variety of math courses that qualify me to teach in most areas of mathematics. These courses include:
- Calculus 1-3 (Equivalent to both AP Calculus classes & multivariable calculus)
- Ordinary Differential Equations
- Linear Algebra
- Real Analysis
- Complex Analysis
- Introductory Abstract Algebra
- Number Theory & Cryptography
- Introductory Logic & Set Theory
- Classical & Quantum Algorithms
- Statistics I (Probability & Quantitative Hypothesis Testing)
- Statistics II (ANOVA, Qualitative Analysis, & Experimental Design)

Some personal information about me:
- I love animals! I have a dog (corgi) & cat at home, and a dog (lab) & cat with me at A&M.
- I love nature! Growing up I was a boy scout & traveled across the country for camping & hiking. Most recently my girlfriend & I went on a 40-mile backpacking trek that included climbing the tallest mountain in Colorado, Mt. Elbert.
- I come from a family of teachers, and that passion has been passed on to me. I deeply enjoy teaching, so much so that after college I plan to work an engineering job the minimum number of years to retire, and then become a math/engineering professor as a second career.

I should be able to adequately teach all math at and below a sophomore undergraduate level.

Regardless of what topic you are coming to me for, my teaching approach is different than most high school teachers or college professors take: I want you to fundamentally understand the content to a level that you could teach it back to me.

I grew up in a household of educators, have been tutoring my sister with learning disabilities for years, & have ADHD myself. Having these experiences has shown me the flaws in classroom/lecture style teaching; memorization & repetition is prioritized over understanding so that test performance is standardized, but the lack of understanding causes a severe spike in difficulty with more advanced topics.

My goal as a teacher/tutor will be to truly make you understand concepts at a fundamental level, so you’ll not only excel in exams & tests, but also be able to explain the topics & problem solve on your own.

I am trying to be cheaper than most other teachers on the platform, I have a philosophy that important services (like teaching) should be priced in a way that they are accessible to everyone. If money is a problem, just shoot me a message. For me the money is secondary, I really just enjoy teaching and seeing others succeed
