Basic Math/Expert Profile
Expertise
When I work through problems, I emphasize principles and key ideas which I believe are worth noting. I will try to answer questions in the following areas, but not at the advanced level. Algebra. Sequences & Series. Trigonometry. Functions & Graphs. Coordinate Geometry. Quadratic Polynomials. Exponentials & Logarithms. Basic Calculus. Probability, Permutations and Combinations. Mathematical Induction. Complex numbers. Physics problems.
Experience in the area
Experience:
I have worked as a teaching assistant in college. My hope is that more people will share knowledge without boundary, give help without seeking recognition or monetary rewards.
Supplementary Website:

Education Credentials:
Bachelor degree in Engineering Science.
