After I graduated from university and obtaining my credential, I went to Vietnam to teach math at international schools. I taught everything from Grade 6 math to Calculus. I've done various c...

Wesley
Premium Math Tutor with Applied Experience

- Santa Clara , California ( 95050 )

I currently do tutoring and statistical consulting full time. I worked at a Fortune 500 tech company for almost 2 years (doing math and statistics) but really e... Read more
