Yehuda - Know your tutor
I'm Yehuda, a tutor with over two years of experience helping students at the High school and college level. With my expertise in computer science, I bring a systematic approach to teaching, ensuring that my students grasp the core concepts before focusing on tackling problem sets. I am well versed in functions, trigonometry, calculus and linear algebra. I employ teaching materials that focus on visual understanding of mathematical ideas, allowing students to engage with the material in a more tangible manner than traditional approaches. Over the course of my tutoring career, I have helped students who were struggling improve their grades and prepare for upcoming examinations. I can help a wide age range of students, from middle school all the way up to first and second year university students. I can also help students who are in computer science or computer engineering courses.

Class overview
My approach to tutoring high school and early college math centers on helping students genuinely understand what they are doing. I place a strong emphasis on visual understanding, since many students struggle when ideas feel abstract or disconnected. Using whiteboarding, we work through problems step by step, laying out each part of the reasoning clearly and building solutions from the ground up. This makes it easier to see how concepts fit together and why each step works. I focus on conceptual understanding before repetition or speed. When students understand why a method works, the mechanics tend to follow more naturally and with greater confidence. I encourage students to talk through their thinking, ask questions, and treat mistakes as part of the learning process. This builds independence and deeper mathematical intuition, allowing students to apply what they’ve learned to new problems, exams, and future courses rather than relying on memorized patterns.

Mathematics concepts taught by Yehuda
The session covered algebraic operations on functions (subtraction, multiplication, division) and introduced the foundational concepts of calculus, specifically the derivative and rate of change. The student practiced finding domains for various functions, including those with square roots and rational expressions, and worked through the algebraic steps of finding the difference quotient.
Operations on Functions: Subtraction and Multiplication
Domain of Functions
Evaluating Functions with Variable Substitution
Introduction to Derivatives: Rate of Change
Simplification Techniques for Trigonometric Expressions
Pythagorean Identities
Trigonometric Reciprocal and Quotient Identities
The tutor and student worked on function operations including division, composition, subtraction, addition, and multiplication. They practiced evaluating these functions and determining their domains, with a focus on simplifying expressions and understanding the conditions under which a function is undefined. The next session is scheduled for Saturday.
Interval Notation
Function Composition
Operations on Functions
Domain of a Function
The Tutor and Student reviewed the principles of solving and graphing inequalities, including the special rule for multiplying/dividing by negatives and interval notation. They then transitioned to setting up and solving algebraic word problems and systems of linear equations, practicing translating scenarios into mathematical expressions.
Applications of Linear Equations with Multiple Variables
Solving Problems with Consecutive Integers
Translating Word Problems to Algebraic Expressions and Equations
Systems of Linear Equations
Solving Linear Inequalities
The Tutor and Student worked on curve sketching using derivatives and analyzing rational functions. They practiced identifying asymptotes, critical points, and intervals of increase/decrease to understand function behavior, with plans to further explore asymptote rules in the next session.
Interpreting Derivatives for Function Behavior
Concavity and the Second Derivative
Asymptotes in Rational Functions
Using Derivatives to Sketch Graphs
The Student and Tutor worked through various probability and statistics problems, including calculating likelihoods, understanding sample spaces, and applying formulas for independent and conditional events. They practiced solving problems with "with replacement" and "without replacement" scenarios, and the concept of "or" in probability. The session covered the formula for conditional probability and its application, with plans to continue practicing these concepts.
Probability Basics: Likelihood and Likert Scale
Sample Space: All Possible Outcomes
Probability with Replacement: Independent Events
Conditional Probability: P(A|B)
Probability of 'Or' (Union of Events)
