Mathematics foundations - transitioning from high school to Bachelor's
course price icon
From 23 € /h
arrow icon
Are you beginning a Bachelor's programme involving mathematics courses? Do you wish to strengthen your high school (or first-year) mathematics foundations over the summer?

I am a third year Bsc General Mathematics student at the RUG. I know what it is like to struggle with this subject, and I promise that I can help you gain a new understanding of this beautiful and clear subject. I will prepare you with strong foundations for all of your courses involving mathematics.
Extra information
I can provide some material, but it would be best if we could meet each other halfway, with you offering some examples of what you need help with.

Hello, I am a mathematics masters student specializing in algebra, geometry and number theory. I have graduated from the university of Groningen with a bachelor in mathematics. As such, I've spent a great deal of time studying mathematics at a higher level and have become acquainted with a broad range of mathematical disciplines such as algebra, geometry, analysis, calculus, probability, optimization and more, this of-course includes any high school mathematics. During my studies I working as a teaching assistant whenever possible so I have some experience teaching.

In mathematics there are often many ways to come to the same conclusion and it varies from person to person what they consider easiest to understand. As such I try to get to know the student first and figure out how they may learn best. Personally, I rely a lot on intuition and deep understanding of concepts and so i try to convey to students the most essential and fundamental ideas before moving on, as well as, giving them interpretations of what is happening so that they may becomes easier to imagine and more tangible. In solving any problem, I think it is important to first sit back and understand what is going on before embarking on any calculation or proofs.

In a typical class I would first survey what the student already knows and discuss the concepts with them making sure they understand them very well then we would move on to discussing examples and non-examples (this would take most of the class). Finally we would solve problems together discussing them as we go along. This of course can vary from student to student, their level and time available.
