I am a senior at the University of Colorado Denver, majoring in Data Science. Throughout my academic journey, I have developed a strong understanding of foundational mathematics and am eager to help others become enthusiastic about learning math! I have had Professor Whitten in all of my math sections and am very familiar with the way she relates the course content to the students. In this class, students will be introduced to limits, derivatives, and even a little bit of integration! It is a fun class to begin a student's journey in math or even just to fill a prerequisite. Nevertheless, I am very excited to be with you all this semester!

Hey, guys. I am a senior majoring in Economics and Mathematics with minors in Data Science and Business Analytics. I come from China and have spent three wonderful semesters here. This is my first time being an LA, and as a student with a profound interest in Math, I am excited to embark on a journey with everyone together throughout this course. I am friendly and love to socialize with others, so please do not hesitate to come and ask for help if anything confuses you. In my free time, I love playing basketball as well as taking care of my roommate's cats. As your "friend," I firmly believe that we can fight together to nail down the materials and have a great semester in the end!

I have a strong passion for math and programming, so if you’re also interested in these areas, feel free to reach out—I’d love to discuss and share ideas.
In my free time, I enjoy playing computer games and basketball, especially with friends. For computer games, I mainly play Brawl Stars, Rainbow Six Siege, and Counter-Strike. If you share any of these interests, let’s team up or shoot some hoops together!
I’m also happy to help with math, so don’t hesitate to ask if you need support. Math can be challenging, but with patience and persistence, I believe anyone can succeed. Looking forward to getting to know you all!

Hi everyone! I am a senior math major with a minor in biology and plans to do a master's degree in statistics. This is my third semester LA'ing and my second semester being an LA for a differential equations class. I found this subject very interesting when I first took it myself and I found a lot of success LA'ing for it the first time around. I can't wait to see and help you all in this class!
