About Brad

I'm a young, energetic tutor from the Saginaw Bay region. I have eight years of experience tutoring students at the college level in college algebra, trigonometry, statistics, and calculus. I've also tutored physics for four years. I earned a BS degree in Mathematics from Michigan State University. I was a member of the Honor's College. And my coursework focused on applied mathematics, which intersected with informal training in computer science. During those four years, I worked as a student tutor in a fast-paced center with other upper-level mathematics, physics, and engineering students. As a professional tutor, I've provided both one-on-one and group tutoring in a dynamic and friendly environment. In my approach, I try to emphasize critical thinking and inquiry for students. I form many of my responses to students as questions. This has a two-fold purpose: (1) To help me understand what students already know; (2) To build student understanding on that knowledge.
