Well I have been struggling this semester and I usually don’t seek help but I can’t seem to find any help at UB. So what I need is someone to help guide my lost brain through the rest of this course.

All I ask:  
Meet once or twice a week for about an hour. Typically this will be later at night as it is my only time I am not at work/school. 9PM ish  
Be an asshole, I need a swift kick in the ass.  
Speak english, this is where alot of issues have been stemming from.

We can discuss compensation.

I want to start as soon as possible so let me know!

Thanks

I did very well in calculus and really like helping people with math. Unfortunately I am going on vacation for 4 weeks next Friday, so I won’t be of much help. If you still need help when I get back, let me know.

They offer tutoring through UB. Have you tried this route? Math is not my strongest point either. Good luck!

I have talked to a few people, going to the “Math place” doesn’t really help, Its hard when I propose a question and they either don’t understand me or I can’t understand them. My TA has office hours but I can’t make them due to class/work conflicts.

I got a 4.0 in calculus, unfortunately I am way out of practice as that was the last time I used it. A fellow student actually had me tutor her, maybe that is a route that you can take? Find a smart kid and ask for some help.

Go to the math office on the second floor of the math building and ask the person working the desk for a list of tutors; they will give you about 30-40 names with emails. I hired a tutor for calc II and III, and it helped quite a bit. Just be prepared to pay $15-$25 / hr.

Well more than likely the UB offices will be closed this week for spring break. I really do not want to wait a week so I will be hitting up CL and the newspaper on monday unless something changes.

What topics are you covering right now; derivatives? I took 141, and honestly, the topics covered aren’t that hard to grasp when you have the right person instructing you…have you tried youtube / online tutorials? I remember those being more helpful than going to the actual class a lot of times.

PM me if you are looking still. If you want to send me a few example assignments as a refresher so I can see if I can set aside the time for it. I used to tutor computer science and math.
