Hey guys! As you can see my name is Evelin but you can call me Eve whichever you prefer. I was born in California but I was raised in Brooklyn, New York. The reason why we moved to New York was because we didn’t have any family members in Cali. All of my family was and is still in New York. I can speak both English and Spanish.
I’m a very stubborn person so I don’t like to give up easily. Especially when it comes to solving math problems. I’ve always loved math ever since I was in elementary school. I’d like to thank my 5th grade teacher, Ms. Carter, for that. She showed me little tricks to make math fun and easier. Since then I enjoy solving all types of equations. The second person I would like to thank for inspiring and motivating me would be my ex partner. She was awful in trigonometry so in order to help her out, I would go the extra mile just to help her pass the class. I would study the topics more, even practice solving new problems each day. Every time I would tutor her, I would get a satisfaction feeling. It made me feel great.
I’ve haven’t had much experience with technology in math class. The only technology I’ve used are scientific and graphing calculators. This semester I’m being introduced to a software called Maple.
I am so happy to hear that you love solving Mathematics problems. If I found difficulty in solving Calculus 1, can you help me please?
Stubbornness is one of the best traits for a math student/future math teacher to have! When students struggle with math, it can be really hard for them to stay motivated, so it’s nice for them to have an example of someone whose hard work has paid off. I really enjoyed helping my friends and classmates in high school too; teaching something to someone else really is one of the best ways to learn it!
Jeez i used that maple program as well . My advice is to make the professors lessons and the textbooks explanation your best friend. There are some easy steps you can skip just by using the search bar or mouse i believe. Confused just type in a topic and the command should pop up.
“I’m a very stubborn person so I don’t like to give up easily. Especially when it comes to solving math problems.” I’m pretty much the same here, giving it up was never an option for me in math.
I’m a stubborn person when I’m trying to solve a difficult math problem like calculus 2 questions and word problems. If I ever have trouble in solving math problems in any of my math classes in the future I would ask for help when I don’t understand the problem.
