About Brett

Greetings! I'm Brett Wightman, an engineer and lifelong learner whose passion for mathematics and its real-world applications began early on and has only grown over time. My career has been a rich mosaic of experiences: from the innovation-driven world of fuel cells to hands-on work building custom homes, and from the dynamic realm of solar sales to the multifaceted challenges of the oil and gas sector. Each phase has deepened my appreciation for the foundational role mathematics plays in shaping our world.

But amidst all these ventures, why tutoring? Because I believe in the transformative power of knowledge. I aim not just to help you conquer your exams, but to instill in you a genuine enthusiasm for mathematics. With me, you're not just memorizing a formula; you're connecting its implications to everything from sustainable energy solutions to architectural marvels.

Commitment, clarity, and a tailored approach form the backbone of my teaching philosophy. Whether you're navigating algebra or diving deep into calculus, I'm here to illuminate, inspire, and ensure the journey is as enriching as it is enlightening.

Join me, and let's unravel the mathematical narratives that thread through our everyday lives and the innovations of tomorrow. Eagerly awaiting our shared adventure in numbers!

My Approach as a Tutor and Sharing of Knowledge:

1. Teaching Methodology and Techniques:
My approach fuses traditional mathematical methodologies with real-world applications, derived from my extensive experience in transformative sectors like oil and gas, carbon capture, and heavy industries. Understanding that every student absorbs information differently, I emphasize personalized, hands-on problem-solving, intertwining theoretical understanding with practical scenarios. This not only ensures students grasp the concepts but also recognize their applicability in real-life situations.

2. A Typical Lesson Plan:

Introduction & Recap: Begin with a brief recap of the previous lesson to reinforce continuity and understanding.

Concept Introduction: Introduce the new topic with theoretical explanations, using visual aids and real-world examples from my engineering background.

Interactive Problem-Solving: Dive into a set of graded problems, starting with simple exercises and escalating in complexity. Encourage students to approach problems using various techniques.

Discussion & Clarifications: Open the floor to questions, ensuring every nuance is clear. During this segment, I often share personal experiences and applications of the day's topic in industry contexts.

Homework & Looking Ahead: Assign a blend of problems to practice at home and give a brief overview of the next session's topic to pique curiosity.

3. What Sets Me Apart as a Tutor:
While my strong foundation in math is essential, what truly differentiates me is the lens of real-world engineering applications I bring to the table. Having navigated the intricacies of heavy industries, I offer students a perspective beyond textbooks. This unique blend of theory and practical knowledge not only equips them for exams but also ignites a passion for understanding the tangible impact of mathematical concepts.

4. Target Audience for My Lessons:
I cater to a broad range of students, from those grappling with foundational concepts in middle school to those diving deep into complex topics like calculus in high school. Additionally, given my background, I'm well-suited to assist students who are keen on pursuing STEM fields, especially engineering, offering them insights and preparatory knowledge that few tutors can.
