Algebra 1 and Algebra 2 tutor

About Sebastian

I am an energetic and engaged calculus, physics, and engineering tutor who has been helping students excel since I myself was in college. I began tutoring by helping my classmates and friends with their math and physics homework. I then took my passion to an after school study program on campus where I worked as a part time tutor for engineering courses. This was back in 2014, and since then I have graduated with a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from Stony Brook University. I have since been assisting, coaching, and guiding various students from different backgrounds to success in their math and science courses.

My key quality as a tutor aside for the passion I have for my subjects is definitely my patience with students. I feel that tutoring is not just instruction, but a means of communication with students. From my years of tutoring I have come to learn that misunderstanding of subject concepts come not simply from the students own lack of understanding, but also from the tutors lack of proper interpretation of the students perspective. Taking the time to understand the students area of difficulty and approaching it in the manner in which they feel comfortable works very well in allowing students to see why their particular way of thinking may not be correct.

I love to tutor Physics as well as many areas of Mathematics and engineering courses. I am definitely qualified to tutor these subjects and my results speak for themselves, with many of my students having raised their grades from barely passing, to a B and above. I have a great passion and love for the disciplines. I want to help my students not just to excel in these subjects, but to enjoy them.
