Hey, I’m Kouassi.

I help students and learners achieve academic success through personalized and effective learning experiences.

My Approach

Personalized

I believe every student learns differently. That’s why I tailor my tutoring approach to fit each student’s unique learning style, strengths, and goals. By personalizing lessons, I ensure students grasp concepts effectively and build confidence in their abilities.

Goal-Oriented

Success starts with a clear plan. I set achievable goals with each student and track progress along the way. This structured approach keeps learners focused and motivated while celebrating every milestone reached.

Hands-On

I emphasize active learning through real-world examples, practice exercises, and interactive discussions. By engaging students in hands-on activities, I help them develop critical thinking skills and a deeper understanding of the material.

Mathematics Expertise & Teaching Philosophy

With a strong foundation in mathematics and a passion for education, I have dedicated my career to helping students build confidence in complex mathematical concepts. My academic background includes a Bachelor of Arts in Mathematics from Augsburg University and ongoing studies in Business Analytics at Hamline University. Over the years, I have worked as a Calculus Workshop Assistant, Math Enrichment Tutor, and Private Mathematics Tutor, supporting students in algebra, calculus, statistics, and discrete mathematics. My teaching philosophy focuses on interactive learning, real-world applications, and personalized instruction to ensure every student grasps the subject effectively.

Experience & Background

Research & Analytical Background

Beyond tutoring, I have a strong analytical mindset shaped by my research experiences. As a Ronald E. McNair Scholar, I conducted research on the mathematical principles behind visual illusions, presenting my findings at national conferences. My ability to break down complex mathematical theories and apply computational techniques allows me to provide students with a deeper, more intuitive understanding of mathematical concepts. Whether it’s statistics, calculus, or discrete mathematics, I help students not only solve problems but also understand the "why" behind the math.

Commitment to Student Success

My tutoring approach is centered on student success and empowerment. I have worked with learners of all levels from middle school to college helping them overcome math anxiety and develop strong problem-solving skills. Through one-on-one coaching and group study sessions, I create an engaging and supportive learning environment. My experience in curriculum development, instructional design, and data-driven learning strategies ensures that each session is effective, structured, and tailored to the student's needs. I believe that with the right guidance, every student can excel in mathematics.
