Dr. Van S.
Private tutor in Paris, France
Education
I'm a specialist online tutor in mathematics, statistics, machine learning and English. I received my PhD in mathematics in the US (Rutgers University, New Brunswick, NJ), and held my postdoctoral positions in reputed institutions in France (Ecole Polytechnique, INRIA) and USA (UCLA). I've extensive teaching and tutoring experience in many areas of mathematics, e.g. trigonometry, precalculus, algebra, differential equations as well as many other topics. I also had great scores in GRE and other competitive exams en route to my PhD. I love to share my passion for mathematics, statistics and machine learning with my students, by means of tutoring, seminars, talks etc. Being an expert in the subject, I can teach/tutor any level - this means from precalculus to linear algebra, group theory, differential equations and many more! Besides mathematics, I can teach English as a second language (ESL). My Specialities include: 1. My familiarity with all level of mathematics, thanks to my doctorate in the subject. 2. My teaching experience in large (roughly 30-40 students per class) and small (one to two students) group settings. 3. My effective visualization process with charts, diagrams, and tables to make things easy for the students. 4. In case the student speaks French but not good in English, I can also tutor in French, where I've an intermediate level. 5. I'm well equipped for tutoring online, as I've done it before and effectively. I've a graphics tablet where I can write and the writings appear on the screen, which can be shared with students. 6. I'm a specialist in motivating the students to learn a new concept, for example, negative numbers, group theory or functional analysis. I've worked in industry for 2 years, so I've seen a lot of these concepts being used in real life, so I can help motivate on why (s)he is learning a new concept.
Experience
I've 7 years of in class teaching and tutoring experience in mathematics. Of course I do have a PhD in math which enables me to teach pretty much any level until graduate school, and selected graduate courses as well. I'm a certified TESOL instructor of English.
