I have been tutoring students in mathematics at the University of Western Ontario since 2003 and I’ve been working full time as a tutor since 2007. By tutoring full time, I can be much more flexible with my hours than other students who may have assignments and exams taking up their time. I meet students on campus near the D. B. Weldon Library (here’s how to find me) and can offer appointments both on a regular basis (once or twice a week) or on a more sporadic basis (you can contact me to meet whenever you feel as though you are in need of help). Appointments can be scheduled online here. My email address is jeff@londonmathtutor.com. If you need to cancel an appointment, I need 24 hours notice or I’ll have to charge $40 for the missed hour. I’ve helped several students improve their mark from a failing grade to  a mark in the 70s. And I’ve helped other students move from a 70 to a 90. Wherever your mark is, I’m confident that I’d be able to help raise it.

Education Background

When I was in first year (back in 2002), my mathematics marks were:

98 :: Math 31 (now split into 1228 and 1229)
95 :: Linear Algebra 40 (now 1600)
92 :: Calculus 50 (now 1000)
92 :: Calculus 51 (now 1501)

I originally came to UWO to study Psychology, but most of the second year psychology courses didn’t interest me. One factor that pushed me to math is that after I’d completed my first year, a professor emailed me and said “quite impressed by [my] performance in [the] Calculus courses”. Apparently, not many Social Science students in the courses had managed as well as I had. I’ve always found math came naturally to me, but this was true to a much lesser degree in university than in high school. I struggled through a lot of the material and figured out my own way of memorizing things along the way and I think I’m a better tutor because of it. Since the material didn’t click for me immediately, I can relate and show you the way I got through the same problems you’re having.

Services

Currently, I provide two different services. They are:

• Private Tutoring / We can meet one on one at the D. B. Weldon Library as often as you like.
• Prep Sessions / A thorough review of everything that you’ll need to know to do well on your test, midterm or final. These last for 4 - 6 hours usually.

I provide tutoring for the following courses:

• Math 0110
• Math 1225
• Math 1228
• Math 1229
• Calculus 1000
• Calculus 1100
• Calculus 1301
• Calculus 1501
• Linear Algebra 1600
