Introduction: I've been tutoring for nearly two years on the Ole Miss campus while I completed my degree in Mechanical Engineering. I focused primarily on College Algebra, Calculus 1, and Calculus 2. I've taken both calculus courses in college and high school where I received AP accreditation. I believed that for an engineering major more experience in a college atmosphere would benefit me. My engineering degree has given me not only the confidence to perform mathematical operations but confidence to cite useful explanations and applications that contextualize concepts while I teach.
I enjoy building up from basic math concepts. By approaching problems from a graphical perspective I believe students gain a stronger comprehension of what formulas mean and what solutions show once the work is done. This takes a longer amount of time but helps students answer the often elusive questions of 'how' and 'why' solutions are solutions. Showing students how to go from guessing their way through problems to confidently and independently completing problems is my ultimate goal.

I run a small tutoring service in a college town. Cody was our top math tutor (both in volume and quality) for over a year. He was always available when we needed him, and students often raved about how much they liked his way of explaining tricky math concepts.
Cody's teaching style is definitely a "show it" style of explanation, as he almost always wrote out notes and examples during his sessions for his students to keep afterwards. His favorite subject as I recall it was Calculus, but he also enjoyed helping students in Algebra and Trig among others.
We miss him here, and haven't quite found a replacement tutor that can handle the same classes that he did with the same reliability. We can't speak highly enough about him, and if you choose him to help you, you'll see why.
