Shin C. Wyzant

“Shin is a tremendous tutor. I have met extremely few individuals with such sharp intellect and remarkable ability to explain concepts. Shin understands that for us students, time is extremely precious, so he prepares his students with utmost precision and ensures that his lessons are as efficient as possible. Shin possesses a truly special aptitude and passion for math. With our lessons, my preparedness and confidence for math tests have skyrocketed. Despite Shin’s incredible talent, what I admire most about him is how he views his students’ successes as his own successes. Shin has gone out of his way to help me on multiple occasions when I faced unexpected obstacles and deadlines. Shin is one of a kind. If you are looking for a math tutor, look no further; you have found the right person for the job.”

“Shin is one of the kindest teachers I know. Due to a plethora of reasons, math was never my strongest subject. I had a lot of math troubles this year as well, but Shin would patiently work out problems step-by-step. It didnt matter how confused I got or how many times I would bump into similar issues -- his voice never rose, staying encouraging. Throughout it all, I always got a feeling that he believed in me. It sounds silly to say, but Shin made math feel comfortable, allowing me to calm down in my work and lock in. Through Shin's teaching, I realized that I wasn't "bad at math." At some point, I had simply become overwhelmed by math, scared of messing up. But one can't improve without practice. And practice means failing, over and over again until you get it right. Shin explained things in a way that clicked with me, using clear visuals and straightforward verbal language that left no room for confusion. Once I had my first 'aha moment,' I began to take down the walls I had built up around math. In his sessions, mistakes weren't met with condescending comments or disappointed eyes. Shin built a space that not only allowed me to mess up, but work through the process myself with him as a guiding hand. As a teacher, Shin never overstepped, preferring to WORK WITH the student instead of TALKING AT them. Through practice, I realized that I enjoyed math. Every time I would make a self-deprecating comment, he would tell me not to speak to myself that way. Over time, I realized that my idea that I was "bad at math" made me admit defeat before even picking up my pencil.”

“Shin tutored me in AP Calculus BC throughout the school year. I have always struggled with math, and this was definitely one of the more challenging math classes that I have had to take. Shin explained to me the larger concepts that I couldn’t understand and always ensured that I had a complete grasp on the ideas we were reviewing. He was never just showing me how to do examples, and would actually take the time to review the core concepts, which really helped me succeed in class and get an A both semesters. He has a bright and bubbly personality and I always felt comfortable asking questions or getting the answer wrong because of the relaxed environment he cultivated. I cannot recommend Shin enough if you are looking for an amazing, positive math tutor who will really help you have a better understanding of the material!”
