About Brady Burrill
Teaching Experience
I am a 22 year veteran math teacher who has taught in a public high school for the last 20 years. I have taught Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and AP Calculus AB. I can't see myself leaving the classroom. I love it! The students I've had and the relationships I've made are what keep me going. Teaching is all about students and making them better. It is what I was born to do!
Tutoring Experience
I tutored my first student when I was 18. I have tutored now off and on for the last 20 years including subjects from middle school math to Calculus 3. I started by going to students' houses, then having them come to me, and now doing it virtually. The technology has now gotten to the point where thing done online are as good as in person (just without the driving). Tutoring is what allows me to stay in the classroom financially. It has reached the point where the expertise I have is worth way more than what I had been charging locally. So here I am!
AP Calculus AB Experience
Tutors for Calculus typically promise results that are only achievable by a multitude of factors. Prior knowledge, quality instruction, a person to answer questions, and the ability to work hard is all part of the formula for success. There's no quick fix. AI and online apps can only do so much. I have been marketing myself as the AP Calculus AB master because I can give students a roadmap to success that doesn't include shortcuts. It is about working hard and learning. Don't listen to those promising an easy way out. The AP exam is a 9 month marathon... not a sprint! The results of my students speak volumes of what I can do. Together we can embrace the grind!
Coaching Experience
I have been a varsity assistant baseball coach for the last 22 years. Each year our program sends student-athletes to college to either play baseball or become experts in other fields. I know what its like to grind an entire school year outside the classroom as well. Mastering calculus and having a successful baseball season have so many parallels. I was born to help students become better!
