"Hi! I'm AJ, a Finance and Business Data Analytics student at Arizona State University in the Barrett Honors College. Mathematics has been my #1 passion since the age of 6! I love working with students to help them achieve their math and chess goals! I began tutoring in 2019 serving as a teacher assistant and volunteer math tutor at my high school. I also fed my passion for mathematics and academics by taking AP classes and being a member of the National Honor Society and Chess Club.

Shortly after the pandemic began in the Spring of 2020, I started an 8-week small group math program for local elementary school students who were struggling with the closure of school and the subsequent transition to online learning. After receiving positive feedback from parents, I felt confident in starting my own tutoring business. In the summer of 2021, I added chess lessons to my service offerings. Outside of math, I enjoy karate, chess, strategy games, music, hiking, & consuming personal development content.

Overall, my teaching style allows students to demonstrate what they already know about math-related concepts, and then providing them with instruction + support to increase and fine-tune their knowledge. The students who meet with me on a consistent basis are the ones who benefit the most. I work with students in K-12, as well as those taking undergraduate college math courses.

I offer virtual and in-person tutoring 7 days a week. In-person sessions are at the Southeast Regional Library + Perry Library in Gilbert, AZ. Please check the library hours to ensure they are open during your preferred meeting time. I typically meet with students at any open table available.

I'm easy to reach out to and will do my best to provide prompt responses! I look forward to hearing from you and helping you or your children achieve their math goals!" less...
