Mathematics/Computer Science for Enthusiastic Students at Any Level

During my high school education in Portugal, I found myself unchallenged and unmotivated by the math curriculum. Seven years later, as a mathematician at the beginning of my academic career, I think I'm an ideal tutor for students in a similar position—interested in math but not quite finding what they need at school. I'm also available to help more advanced students (from university or beyond) who need advice and direction on university-level topics. Additionally, I'm happy to help adults who need help restarting their mathematical education or filling in gaps in their understanding.

I'm interested in talking about anything mathematical, from linear inequalities to Hilbert's Nullstellensatz. I'm also familiar with computer science, both in theory and practice. I can easily take the reins and "lecture" on most topics but would prefer to steer towards whatever the student finds interesting. I strongly believe that learning math is an active, creative process.

About Me

Although I attended high school in Portugal and speak Portuguese fluently, I spent my earlier childhood in the United States. I studied at the University of Coimbra from 2016 to 2021, graduating with a degree in pure mathematics. My thesis was on geometric control theory, and I maintain an interest in differential geometry. After a short time working in industry as a computer engineer, I decided that I needed to follow my passion in mathematics and am currently looking to start a doctorate degree. As far as research, I'm broadly interested in stochastic processes, decision theory, and applied category theory.

Education

Master's in Pure Mathematics, University of Coimbra. 19/20 GPA. Received the exclusive ""Prémio Doutor Renato Pereira Coelho."
Received 2 research grants during undergrad.

Experience / Qualifications

Worked as a software engineer for 8 months after leaving university.
Am currently tutoring a gifted 6th-grade student from the US over weekly video lessons.

Statistical Analysis with Python and R (Rstudio) - Intro to Data Science
By delving deep into the practical applications of statistics and data science, this course is meant to position you for success. Learn from examples from the real world: Instead of enduring hours of theoretical material and attempting to relate it to practical issues, we will solely concentrate on applied statistics. Giving you the information and skills you need to succeed, programming allows you to apply theory to real-world issues. We don't want to spend hours solving math problems by hand for reinforcement learning because this isn't school. No, in order to maximize our productivity and efficiency, we'll address our challenges using cutting-edge methods and code libraries that make use of the most recent software releases. If you have any further questions, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Private lessons in math, physics-chemistry and science.
Give your child the future he deserves. Do you want to significantly increase your child's average? Do you want it to become autonomous? For 2 years, I have helped more than 10 students in difficulty from college (sixth, fifth, fourth, third) and high school (second, first, terminal) to achieve their goals (good average, baccalaureate,) and to regain confidence in them. I am a student at INSAT. I had my scientific baccalaureate with an average of 16 so there is no need to worry;). I offer support courses in (physics, chemistry, math, science), each course is adapted according to the level of the student. My method in 3 points: - short term: significantly increase the average by assimilating the course and preparing for the next tests (assimilating the course, training in standard exercises, anticipating the teacher's expectations and test questions) - medium term: integrate reasoning and work methods assimilation, training exercise) - long-term: set a goal, build the steps to achieve this goal, become aware, have confidence in your abilities, unlock your potential) My greatest reward is to see my students progress, overcome difficulties and flourish throughout the school year, so do not hesitate to contact me for any additional information. I wish you very good luck in your research. Cordially.

Dillan
Knowledgeable A-Level & GCSE Science Tutor / Medical Student
Hello! I am Dillan and I am 19 years old. I have completed my A-Levels and GCSEs and studied at a top grammar school in the UK, and I am currently a Medical student. I am a keen and enthusiastic tutor with experience. I have a few years of tutoring experience. I have taught many students subjects such as Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Mathematics and Computer Science. I have had students initially reach level 5 in specific issues, and through hard work and some guidance, they reached level 9 as their final GCSE grade. My teaching style is interactive whiteboard lessons; I use my iPad to annotate and write notes on the virtual whiteboard. My primary focus is to allow the students to understand the material through annotated diagrams. To ensure engagement throughout the lessons, students will be asked different questions, such as why something behaves this way or why this is the answer. I do not just aim for the students to memorise the material but instead to understand the material at hand. From the very beginning, exam questions will be used. I use exam questions from the beginning to help students understand how the mark scheme is structured. Starting exam questions early allows students to practice and perfect their exam technique for the most excellent chance of success in the actual exams. The subjects I offer are: Chemistry: KS3, GCSE and A-Level Physics: KS3, GCSE Biology: KS3, GCSE and A-Level Maths: KS3, GCSE English: KS3, GCSE Computer Science: KS3, GCSE and A-Level Economics: GCSE Medical School Tutoring: Personal Statement advice, UCAT, BMAT & Medical Interviews Python: Beginner and Intermediate lessons
