Advanced Algebra as Taught by Webster Wells, an MIT Professor

From 77.3 C$ /h

This course is an extensive treatment of algebra, once the de facto standard in the United States. The material starts with the basics and drills down to reasonably profound ideas. Download the 2500+ page textbook, and you'll get access to all the materials, including solutions and linked videos. If you need additional support, I would be thrilled to help via Zoom/FaceTime/Skype!

I am open to helping anyone interested in learning, hoping to find like-minded individuals willing to explore. A mathematical adventure that one can start alone, but you'll always have a companion ready to help.

Extra information

Granted, you're accessing information electronically, but you'll need paper and a pencil to work the problems. I'll also help students learn Sagemath and LaTeX if they so desire. Remember that all materials covered can be done using paper and pencil only, but digital computers add significantly to the experience.

About Me

I've been teaching mathematics for almost 35 years. I would love to help others in their journey, including carefully listening to your needs. Yes, I see mathematics or learning in general as a way to create a healthy mind. I am here to help!

Education

Bachelor's degree from New York University and two master's degrees from Columbia University. My studies have allowed me many great opportunities, but the most critical aspect of education is that it largely depends on what you do and not what school you attend.

Experience / Qualifications

I am an associate professor of mathematics at a two-year community college. Although I love what I do, I am looking for like-minded individuals seeking solace in their academic lives. As I near retirement, my mind needs to engage, and I am hopeful that I will find students interested in learning. Again, I am here to engage with others.

Using Sagemath, SageTeX, and LaTeX for beginners . . .

77.3 C$ /h

I'm in my fourth decade of teaching mathematics, and I have many prepared materials for self-study, including videos. Ideally, you'll work alone and then reach out for one-on-one help if needed. Just reach out and let me know your level of interest, and I'll arrange a no-cost overview of where you should start.

LaTeX is an open-source document preparation system for high-quality typesetting. It is often used for medium-to-large technical or scientific documents, but it can be used for almost any form of publishing.

SageMath is an open-source mathematics software system widely popular in the mathematics community.

The SageTeX package allows you to embed the results of Sage computations into a LaTeX document.

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Experienced for more than 18 years, I give private lessons in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Chemistry - Biology, Geology to students of French patent program, secondary and Terminales or international program in English (Grade 8 , 9, 10, 11, 12) or competitions and medical university preparatory classes or 1st and 2nd university years for the academic year 2022/2023 either at home or by internet online by virtual class method.
The online method is easily done through a link that serves as a shared interactive writing, typing and projection board more than Skype we talk to. This method is very modernized and reliable and guaranteed.
The results of my students and in particular the students of Terminale are superb with successes in mention very good, good and sometimes excellent. I give my students the working technique to get the best grades.
Homework help for CNED students.
For more information, do not hesitate to contact me, guaranteed response in a few minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

Maths for Everyone is a class designed for people who want to understand maths clearly and without fear. It is open to learners of all backgrounds, whether you struggled with maths before or simply want a stronger foundation.

The class focuses on real understanding rather than memorising formulas. Concepts are explained step by step using simple language, clear examples, and practical intuition. Students are encouraged to ask questions, make mistakes, and build confidence at their own pace.

Lessons are adapted to the level of the learners and may cover core arithmetic, algebra, functions, graphs, probability, basic statistics, and problem solving skills. The goal is not speed, but clarity and confidence.

No prior knowledge is required. The aim of this class is to make maths understandable, useful, and accessible to everyone.

I am a dynamic and demanding teacher who gives private lessons in Physics-Chemistry as well as Mathematics.

I graduated from teaching seven years ago, after a masters in physical sciences with honors, and I teach in college and high school since.
I have also been preparing students for the Baccalaureate Science for many years, all of whom have been awarded very good honors.
I also prepare my students for different exams (Matu, Bac, preparation for EPFL, etc...)

I make sure to rework the basics so that the student can progress quickly. It is important to me that my students acquire a solid foundation of knowledge.
I also give effective work methods that will allow him to progress much more quickly and so he can regain self-confidence.

I can travel to the student's home or also conduct the lesson via Zoom/Google Meet.

As an English Teacher in Al-Manhal Schools from Tunisia (تونس), I have an experience teaching Elementary, Intermediate and Secondary level students across multiple curriculums. My classes are learner-centered with a major focus on students personal capabilities by taking into consideration Multiple Intelligences within the classroom environment.

I promote students' academic growth in the 4 target language skills: Reading, Writing, Listening and Speaking. And I also work to build a strong foundation for young learners and those who know little about the English language.

I also have a Baccalaureate in Mathematics and can help students in Elementary levels improve their skills.
