Summer Internship
Educator
My YouTube Channel
I have been tutoring students at MathPath, helping children aged 4-15 understand various mathematical concepts, from basic arithmetic to higher levels of precalculus. Since March 2023, I have dedicated 2-3 hours per week to teaching at the MathPath Center. My journey with math began at a young age, sparked by curiosity and nurtured by dedicated teachers who showed me the wonders of numbers and equations. As I delved deeper into the subject, I discovered its power to solve problems, uncover patterns, and inspire creativity. Driven by my passion for teaching and my desire to make math accessible to all, I founded Mathletics as a platform to share my knowledge and enthusiasm with others.
