Ask a QuestionAbout Me
I am currently working on my computer science degree from Stanford University. For the last few years I have been teaching math, computer science, and standardized test prep tutoring sessions. I love working with students of all ages, from elementary to high school, and I've taught classes with groups of students at all levels. I was a Mathcounts European division winner and received a perfect score on SAT Math general and subject tests. I believe my experience can support students with similar goals, as I have a unique and helpful way of putting abstract concepts into accessible formats for all students. My teaching method focuses on understanding background concepts and theorems that underpin larger mathematical concepts, and I ensure that my students both understand how to solve practice questions and how solutions derive from mathematical concepts that could help them solve other questions and topics.I am looking forward to expanding my experience with my wonderful GLA families and students

Dr. Lydia –
5.2.2(c), (d) - Incorrect -- we went over these in class, but the idea is that you should multiply both sides of the equation by the reciprocal of the fraction that is being multiplied by the variable. For example, in (c), you should multiply both sides by 5. - assignment_8387_163303455959_FE04BA01_EC8F_46C5_8029_5367540D258D.jpeg
Dr. Lydia –
5.2.5 - Incorrect, this should be r=15 instead. I think you subtracted 7 from both sides, but 7 is already negative in the original equation, so you needed to add 7 to both sides instead. - assignment_8387_163303453683_4D131548_2D02_4137_B809_DD9AF420B740.jpeg
Dr. Lydia –
Computations with negatives and exponents look good, though I did not look at every single one. For the like terms questions -- 5. incorrect - these are not like terms, because the first two have f^2, whereas the last one has e^2, not f^2. 7. incorrect - these are not like terms, because the middle term has a q^2=qq, whereas the other terms only have q. They have coefficients of 2, but remember that coefficients do not matter when determining what are like terms. 10. incorrect - these are not like terms, again because the exponent of 2 is being placed on different letters each time. for example, the first term has an h^2=hh yet only one m, whereas the second term has an m^2=mm, yet only one h. - assignment_8414_163339071793_Oscar_Wang_hw3.pdf
Dr. Lydia –
Very good, some very small errors (for example, #19 in the first section should be negative). - assignment_8384_163278784260_80927311_DBF3_4100_84EE_C263BA4EE9F9.jpeg

This is my daughter's favorite class ever. She is a little bit shy at the beginning and was very quiet. Mrs. Raven teaches the class in a unique and super fun way.

Most importantly Mrs. Raven made study super fun for kids and kids are so willing to learn. My daughter is always excited when I told her "time for your favorite class". I feel so lucky to have my daughter in Mrs. Raven's class. - Phonics I

Mr. Denny’s class is my daughter's favorite class, out of all the classes she takes as a 4th grader. The very first time she took the class I honestly thought she was doing online chatting with friends because of the giggling and the excitement afterwards. Fun to take aside, she actually learned the composure and the skills of public speaking. She just utilized these skills in her school presentation. She will definitely continue the class with Mr. Denny. Thanks GLA! - 3-4th Grade Public Speaking & Debate

My son really enjoyed Mrs Raven's phonic class so I signed him up for the sight word class as well. It is the best decision ever. He liked to participate in the class and interact with Mrs Raven's fuzzy friends. He would sing the songs that Mrs Raven played during the class all the time, which is lots of fun to hear. I like that Mrs Raven always prepare homework/extra activity to help them memorize the words better. He picked up so many sight words in a short period of time.

My 4 and half old son became attracted to Mrs. Teri’s class by the variety of activities available in the class: singing, stories, coloring. He truly enjoys the fun learning experience and as a result, he became more and more actively participating the class activities and shows a great deal of confidence, though not necessarily correct all the times :). It is very important to the kids who can stay through the classes without parents involvement, which is a big improvement already, let alone he did learn quite a few words from the class :). - PreK Reading and Sight Words

My 4-year-old attended sight word class with Ms. Teri and phonics class with Mrs. Raven. Both of them are great, experienced, know how to teach, and the interaction was great. What Mrs. Raven brought to the class is not just phonics learning experience, but also a lot of fun as in her class, the kids would use play dough, scissors, singing songs to learn and sometimes they even learn through doing some "gym activities". From the learning materials she sent out weekly, you can tell she was well prepared and organized.

My little one loves to attend Mrs. Raven's class and he is looking forward to it on every class date. Mrs. Raven has a very good voice as she can deliver multiple range of voices in pretend play with various animals to interact with children. Her singing adds a nice touch during class which can have the class stand up to dance and sing along. She clearly has a lot of experience in teaching children as she is able to communicate very well with children and knows how to get their attention. She also shows a lot of enthusiasm from the beginning to the end of class. Throughout the phonics class there were changes in structure of the class in an effort to add more complexity and enrich the children’s experience. Although each change wasn’t necessarily perfect she was very open to parent suggestion and since then the classes have been much better accommodating to all the children, which have varying ages. Overall, we all love Mrs. Raven and would highly recommend her to anyone we know. Thank you Mrs. Raven! - Phonics I

Ms. Raven is one of the best teachers we have encountered so far. Due to the global pandemic, my 5 year-old son was forced to leave his pre-K class and stay home doing online learning. I heard the GLA school from a friend, and signed him up in Ms. Raven's class. I am so glad I did so, and regret that I didn't join this sooner. Since day 1, my son has fully enjoyed Ms. Raven's class, and we watch his great progress every day. He enjoys every bit of the classes, and is fully motivated to attend the class. We now have him enrolled in another classes (sight words and reading) by Ms. Raven. She is a life saver to us in the midst of the difficult time. I would give highest possible rating to Ms. Ravens and recommend her wholeheartedly to anyone that I know. - Phonics I

Love Mr. Denny. My daughter enjoys so much in the class. Topics are fun enough to draw the kids’ attention, to motivate the kids to talk, to debate which is very helpful in improving critical thinking skills. Love love love! - 3-4th Grade Public Speaking & Debate

My son loves Mrs. Raven a lot. I was worried that it would be not possible for him to sit in front of computer for more than 10 minutes. It turned out I was so wrong and it is so easy for him to sit there for one hour! Few months ago it was difficult for him to distinguish upper/lower case letters. But now he can write them very neat in the line paper. Not even mention that he can try to sound out those simple regular words! - Phonics I
