Hi, I am Ryan Chang! I’m a bit of a science and math nerd (in the best way possible), but I also know how to make learning feel less stressful and instead more peaceful. I have always been the kind of person who enjoys helping classmates figure things out; whether it's a math homework, a tricky chemistry problem, or just making sense of a confusing topic. Outside of my personal academics, I play in my school band (music is a huge part of my life) and I also work as a Tech Coach, in which I help others solve problems and learn new skills. Balancing school, music, and tutoring has taught me a lot about discipline, time management, and being patient; even when things get tough. Personality wise, I’d say I am patient, approachable, and maybe a little too enthusiastic about explaining how things work (and just a side note here: yes, I will probably compare electrons to ping-pong balls at some point). My goal isn’t just to help with schoolwork but it’s to make students feel more confident and capable, both inside and outside the classroom. When I’m not tutoring or studying, I will probably be playing music, learning something new, staring at a wall for 2 hours straight, or hanging out with friends. And yes… I fully admit to being the kind of person who gets way too excited about science experiments!
