About Somin
I found myself struggling a lot in math, and I didn't really have a teacher who I could reach out to and be comfortable asking questions with until the latter end of middle school, where my teacher was the first person I felt fully at ease. After making that connection, my math journey became so much easier and smoother, and helped me finally gain the scores I needed to get achievements in competitions and do better than I had in the past. Once I finally understood these concepts, my experience in math became so much easier and much more fun, and I strive for my students to also have fun solving equations and having understanding in concepts.
I also know that many of us feel stressed about our grades, because I did too, and once I began to understand math better, I could feel the stress and pressure I had for my math grade slowly get lighter, and in return have less stress overall. I want my students to also be able to have less stress in their lives and I understand that they all have activities that they are committed to, and I hope to offload some of the stress and anxiety math gives to many students.

I took the math skip test in 2 different districts, as well as taken many math competitions, from AMC 8 to Mathcounts, received a score of 117/100 in Algebra 1 finals and 2nd place in my grade. Due to that, I am familiar with frequently appearing questions and methods to best prepare for them for competition and exam situations. I have a few years of experience with tutoring other students and peers in person for math, biology, and basic science, and I find myself really enjoying solving and creating problems, as well as tackling hard questions/concepts and understanding them.
My teaching methods are first understanding what the student has already learned and understood, and then identifying what they are struggling with or want/need to learn. Once that has been identified, I go ahead and pull up necessary information and questions for the students so we can go over necessary concept and problems to ensure understanding.
Something that I believe is a core essential part of learning is not being afraid and encouraging a learning space, so I try my best to make sure the student is not overwhelmed and encourage questions and making sure they fully understand before moving on, as well as taking feedback so I can fully cater to their learning.
These lessons are for students anywhere from elementary students who want to learn ahead, people preparing for math olympiad in elementary, middle schoolers beginning their algebra journey to logics in geometry, math competitors who want to improve their scores in the AMC 8 and Mathcounts, and students from elementary to logic who need extra assistance understanding material for their success.
