I believe all students are capable of learning when they have the proper resources, learning environment, and an explanation of concepts in a way they can understand. My success with students comes from how I explain things — I develop simple, effective techniques that help them in every class, not just the one I'm tutoring.

My goal isn't just to help students succeed in their current class — it's to set the correct study habits and skills so they succeed in future classes too. No shortcuts. No quick fixes. Long-lasting academic success.

"Many of my students have gone on to selective universities such as Harvard, Stanford, and UC San Diego. They often comment on how my classes, expectations, and mentorship have prepared them well to handle university-level coursework."

What students and parents say

I can't say enough about Tan and his services as a math tutor. All the little things you look for in a professional — promptness, communication, flexibility, mastery of his subject — are there, but on top of that, his methods of teaching and getting results are extremely effective. My son was a typical underachiever in math. We worked with Tan for about a year with amazing results — he got into the advanced math class and scored "exceeds the standards" on his state tests.

My daughter is taking AP Calculus and we consider ourselves lucky to have Tan as a tutor. We had previously tried three tutors, all of whom knew calculus but were not really skilled at teaching it. Tan truly has a gift for teaching. He gives a brief, easy-to-understand explanation of the concepts behind each problem. For the first time, she feels that she "gets it."

I couldn't be more thankful that I found Tan to help me with my Statistics course! I have such a difficult time with mathematical comprehension, but Tan breaks it down so that even the most novice mathematician can comprehend the theories. He is patient and has a very understandable vocabulary of the technical language that I find most confusing. You're a life saver!

Tan worked with my son to help prepare him for the SAT. His approach was to first understand where the "holes" were in my son's math fundamentals. Once those were identified and fixed, he progressed from there. Patient and steady — a highly competent math teacher who showed genuine interest in our son's thought processes. Built an easy rapport with our son, who even looked forward to the lessons.

Tan is helping me with a college-level Econometrics class. He is extremely patient and has a wonderful knack for providing examples that make sense to me. The textbook is often confusing and he reads the material and converts it to something he knows I will understand. He is always prompt and follows up whenever needed.

Lynn · Encinitas · Econometrics · Yelp

We really appreciate Tan for tutoring our son on his AP Physics. He went up and beyond his way to accommodate us on his busy schedule. Knowledgeable, approachable, and patient. My son really likes him and we are really satisfied with his services. Thank you very much, Tan.
