About

Each week, we will go over a unit of Pre-Calculus! Prior knowledge of algebra will be helpful. Remember, we thrive for improvement first, mastery next. Anyone is welcome to join, whether you are looking for some review or wanting to get a head start for next year! The content will primarily be based on the Khan Academy course, but feel free to ask any other Pre-Calc related questions you have.

Hi, I'm Cencen! I am passionate about math and science, which is what I primarily tutor in. I've been taking AP courses since freshman year (all 5's on AP exams), and I have a 1600 SAT. In addition to academics, I also have a variety of hobbies and interests such as painting, traveling, and baking. Nice to meet all of you!

✋ ATTENDANCE POLICY

We will learn about a different unit each week, so attendance policy is pretty loose. However, some units, especially Trigonometry and Vectors are very interconnected, so please try to attend every session. You will be withdrawn if you have more than 3 absences in a row, unless if you notify the tutor in advance.
