McCall D.
McCall D. is exceptional at helping students grasp concepts and gain confidence in Middle-School Math, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and English Composition.
McCall enjoys helping students learn how to bridge the gap between big-picture mathematical concepts and solving specific problems using those concepts.
Her goal is to help students gain confidence, improve their understanding, and realize, “Hey, wait a minute. I’m actually good at math!”
As a graduating honor-roll senior at Silver Creek High School in Longmont, McCall will be attending Colorado State University in the fall, where she plans to major in Biomedical Engineering and Biochemistry.
In her spare time, McCall works with a local equine veterinarian and spends time with her friends, family, and her three dogs: Anzu, Zeke, and ZuZu.
Mark B.
Mark B has a PhD in Mathematical Physics.
He has been tutoring all levels of math and physiics for about 30 years. The last five years he has been teaching math and physics in high schools.
Mark is very particular about proving everything in both math and physics from the ground up. If necessary he will go back to the level that the students is familiar with and build from there to make sure that the students understands every step.
He also likes to make the student figure out possible next steps in how to achieve a better understanding.
When it comes to problem solving in both math and physics, Mark likes the student to give examples for the basic problems, with input from the student, but then encourage the student to try without help as much as possible, before showing the solution.
Emily L.
Emily graduated from McGill University with her bachelors degree in Psychology and Science and is currently applying for graduate programs to further her education. She has 6+ years tutoring math and sciences. She is passionate about making tough topics less daunting by motivating students and explaining lessons to match with each student’s individual learning styles. She looks forward to guiding your child to academic success!
Beverlyn J.
Beverlyne J. is a mathematics and chemistry educator from Kenya.
As a child, Beverlyne had a strong interest in problem-solving and science, which led her to study higher math and chemistry and pursue a career in teaching and research.
She received her B.Ed. in Mathematics and Chemistry and her MS in Applied Mathematics from the University of Nairobi, in Kenya. She did her postgraduate studies at Uppsala University in Sweden.
She has taught math and chemistry at several different levels: lecturing at the University of Nairobi, serving as the head of the Mathematics Department at the Jaffery Academy (Nairobi), and working as a lecturer/tutor for private clients.
Outside the classroom, she enjoys playing badminton, conducting research in mathematical modeling, and mentoring young scholars in STEM.
Her goal is to make mathematics meaningful and accessible, and help students build the confidence and critical-thinking skills that apply outside the classroom.
Jacob M.
Jacob is currently working on earning his PhD from the University of Rochester. Having graduated from BSU in 2018, he celebrated by cultivating his love of nature on a cross-country camping trip across the lower forty-eight and Alaska.
