About Me

Eventually, I felt I had mastered addition and moved on to subtraction and multiplication until I had basically finished the 3rd grade math curriculum by the time I got there. So much so that I decided to major in Math during college and will graduate with a BA in Math in May 2015. I have taken all high school mathematics, all of calculus, linear algebra, ordinary differential equations, modern analysis, group and field theory, and number theory as well as classes in logic. I have had some formal tutoring experience with students in high school and some of my fellow students in college, and I have tutored many informally throughout my education. I really like helping people understand math and fall in love with it like I did. Whenever I was studying math, there was always an "Aha!" moment when something makes sense and clicks. I really like seeing that moment in my students eyes especially when they realize how cool math can be.

Hobbies & Interests

Is very interested in law and will be starting law school in fall. Enjoys watching TV and and sports, but doesn't like watching baseball. Enjoys logic puzzles, Sudoku, board games.

Q&A with Jonathan

I try to teach by example and by concept. I think formula memorizing is useful in some cases but often it takes understanding the concepts underpinning the formulas to truly understand them.
