About Maxwell
I hold an undergraduate degree in Materials Engineering from Rutgers University-New Brunswick (which I attended on a full ride), but my tutoring experience began before I even stepped foot on campus. After I achieved an 800 on SAT Math and Math Level 2 during my junior year of high school, my fellow students began turning to me for help. I thus began sitting with other students for one-on-one lessons. Then, during my senior year of high school, when my AP Calculus AB teacher struggled to properly teach our class, I wound up being a de facto teacher for many of my classmates.
Fast forward to now: after getting "A" grades in all my college math classes, I've been tutoring on the side of my other work, but I'm looking to do this far more often, because I really enjoy it. The students I tutor learn the subject material quickly under my tutelage; their progress shows over the course of our lessons, and they tell me I explain the subject matter better to them than their teachers do.

My teaching method is to first walk through solving a math problem step by step, making sure the student is paying attention. I then devise a similar problem for the student to solve on his own, and I step in if the student feels he needs further help from me. After a few problems on which we collaborate, I have the student try a problem entirely without my assistance. Once I feel the student is able to complete a problem with no outside assistance, we'll move on to the next concept (likely one that's closely related to the current subject matter). Every few weeks, I'll administer a practice test to see how well the student's learning is holding up in a testing environment. My goal is to ensure that the knowledge I'm able to impart to students actually lasts with them outside our sessions together.

For travel into West Philadelphia, other parts of Pennsylvania, or New Jersey, I'll need to increase my travel charge, varying based on how far I'm traveling for you.
