Hi! My name is Ashton and I am currently a senior year at Watkins Memorial High School. I enjoy math and science, but also helping others learn. I began dual enrollment courses in math as a freshman, taking both College Algebra and Precalculus through Ohio University. Beginning my sophomore year, I started taking courses at the Ohio State University and have successfully completed Statistics, Calculus 1,2,3 and Linear Algebra as well as both Algebra and Calculus based Physics courses, plus General Chemistry. I found throughout these courses that I was very good in identifying patterns from multiple perspectives, which enables me to find where other students are struggling and break down challenging concepts.

​

I have used tutoring myself on multiple occasions to fill in gaps in my understanding and to develop the necessary skills I need to be successful. Recognizing the impact of tutoring early in my math career, especially in solidifying understanding and good habits, inspired me to offer tutoring to my peers. Beginning my junior year, I was hired and trained as a math tutor at OSU Newark where I gained experience working with students from diverse backgrounds with unique learning challenges such as ADHD, dyscalculia, and autism.
