Derivation of common trig functions and trig identities

From 26 £ /h

I will take you through some common trigonometry functions by deriving the sin rule, cosine rule, and trig area of triangle. This requires you to have a grasp of basic trig (i.e. SOHCAHTOA). I will then take this basic trig to derive common trig identities.

I specialise in teaching Math for students from all ages up until A Levels. I feel that every student is unique in their own way of learning and capabilities. Truly understanding a students way of learning is the most effective way of ensuring that they learn information effectively. I feel that when it comes to Mathematics, ensuring that the student finds their own personal ways of understand basic principles and patterns of Math will enable them to apply this knowledge when faced with more complex exam style questions.

i can explain Math for grade 1 to college calculus, Geometry, Algebra, and mathematics skills SAT, MAT 117 for business Arizona University and Khan Academy,
[So I started tutoring to keep others out of that aggravating, time-sucking cycle. Since then, I’ve recorded tons of videos and written out cheat-sheet style notes and formula sheets to help every math student—from basic middle school classes to advanced college calculus—figure out what’s going on, understand the important concepts, and pass their classes, once and for all.
Say goodbye to confusing math.😜]
I will provide you with complete assistance and help in learning any sort of mathematics and physics from basic school mathematics university mathematics or physics. We can have regular online sessions or I can provide you with written material as you demand. We can also have a permanent daily basis or weekly basis tutorials and will teach you all the concepts that can help you to prepare for exams or quizzes and will help you to get good grades in school and college.
We put the student on the right path and make him solve the tests alone after a lot of training together.

I hold a degree in Electrical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin - Madison, USA, and relocated from London to Barcelona in 2023.

Mathematics has always been a huge passion of mine and I have found it helps in developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills. These skills are crucial in building confidence and nurturing creativity in students (I even use math to create music!).

I enjoy teaching various math topics, such as algebra, geometry, ratio and proportion, probability, and trigonometry, among others. I'm also equipped to assist students in preparing for 11+, 13+, GCSE, IB and SAT exams.

In addition to being a math tutor, I also have a certificate in TEFL. This has enabled me to design my lessons in a way that is more engaging and effective for students of all ages.

Having lived in five different countries, including the UK, Belgium, USA, India, and Spain, I bring a diverse perspective to my teaching. During my leisure time, I enjoy creating music, cooking, watching movies and running (mostly long walks these days!).

Please message me through Apprentus with any questions you may have. I'm eagerly looking forward to hearing from you!

Most people hate math because it's taught by memorization. "Remember this formula and then plug some numbers in". This not only makes the subjects annoying and boring, but it also removes a lot of the beauty and interesting reasoning behind why math is the way it is. Whether you're a highschool student struggling with trig functions and the quadratic equation, or you're a university student plagued with isomorphism theorems and epsilon-delta proofs, come with me and I'll help you not just answer homework questions, but really get an intuition for why things are the way they are, and hopefully you can see some of the beauty I see along the way.

I loved math in highschool, have a 4-year bachelor's in pure math, and am currently doing a master's in bioinformatics. I'm happy to help you with just about any topic!

Here’s a class intro for you as a tutor offering a combined pre-calculus and calculus course, blending the two subjects seamlessly while maintaining your established style:

“Graduated as a Mechanical Engineer from the prestigious University College London (UCL), I bring a robust mathematical foundation and practical expertise to my tutoring. I have been tutoring mathematics professionally for 8 years, both online and in person, with 90% of my past students achieving A and A* grades in their subjects.

As your pre-calculus and calculus tutor, I will design lessons to meet your exact needs, bridging the gap between these critical subjects. In pre-calculus, we’ll cover functions (linear, quadratic, polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic), trigonometry (identities, equations, applications), systems of equations, conic sections, and sequences, preparing you for the leap into calculus. In calculus, we’ll dive into limits and continuity, derivatives (with applications like optimization), integrals (area, volume, and the Fundamental Theorem), and series. These topics build a powerful toolkit for advanced math and real-world problem-solving, and I’ll guide you through them with clarity.

My approach emphasizes intuitive understanding—showing you how concepts connect—so you can tackle exams with ease. We’ll use past papers and practice problems tailored to your goals, whether for school tests, AP Precalculus, AP Calculus (AB/BC), IB HL, A-Level, or other assessments.

My goal is to help you master pre-calculus and calculus, paving the way for academic excellence and future success in STEM fields or beyond.

This course in Mathematics: Geometry and Trigonometry offers students a comprehensive understanding of two foundational branches of mathematics. Designed to develop both conceptual knowledge and problem-solving skills, the class begins with the study of geometric figures, exploring their properties, relationships, and applications. Students will engage with key topics such as points, lines, angles, triangles, polygons, circles, area, volume, and coordinate geometry. Through hands-on activities and visual reasoning, learners will deepen their spatial understanding and logical thinking.
The trigonometry portion of the course introduces students to the relationships between angles and sides of triangles, focusing on the sine, cosine, and tangent ratios. Students will explore the unit circle, radian measure, trigonometric identities, and real-world applications including wave functions and navigation problems. Emphasis is placed on connecting geometry and trigonometry to practical contexts, encouraging students to see the relevance of these concepts in science, engineering, and everyday life.
Throughout the course, learners will build proficiency through guided practice, collaborative work, and real-world problem sets. Whether preparing for advanced mathematics, standardized tests, or practical application, students will leave the course with a solid foundation in both geometry and trigonometry.
