About Me



Hello, I’m Anna and I like teaching math.

I’m a junior at The King’s College studying Business Administration. I live in New Jersey and go to school in NYC. I am the faculty assistant for my college’s math department, which means I grade quizzes and tutor students to help with College Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus I, Finite Math for Business, and Business Statistics Using Excel. Helping students understand math and get excited about it is one of the most rewarding things I’ve done. I love math and I want to help you understand math. And it’d be pretty cool if I could get you to love math too.

I believe that math exists, whether we discover it or not. I don’t believe that math is an invention. I believe that math that is invented is wrong and I believe that correct mathematical principles are simple compared to the vastness of the world that they describe. I believe that math and art are inseperable – there is art in every mathematical idea and there is math in every artistic creation.

It is a fact that there is math in the world around us, whether it exists merely by human invention or not. It would be a shame to discredit elegant explanations of the way the world works just because these explanations are described using numbers.


That’s my face. My puppers’ name is Sadie. And the fishies’ names are Io (named after Jupiter’s largest moon) and Lester (Lester is a black moore. His name is Lester so I can say “Les is moore”). Sunflowers are my favorite flower because they are bright and bold and they make me smile (I also appreciate the math in them, but I liked them before I had heard of Fibonacci and before I understood e).
