My first goal is to ask questions to find out which issues you're having, which concepts you might be struggling with, etc. This will allow me to come up with a plan to help you work through them and understand them more intuitively.

My first goal is to ask questions to find out which issues you're having, which concepts you might be struggling with, etc. This will allow me to come up with a plan to help you work through them and understand them more intuitively.
Next I'd want you to show me a specific problem or concept that you're having trouble solving/understanding. Depending on the way you work best, I may ask you to get as far as you can without my help, or I may use the problem as something I should keep in mind as a teachable skill over the course of our sessions.
I finished three semesters as an astrophysics major, a minor in General Mathematics (which I looked into completing as a major), and I do genuinely love to study math and physics (I spent a lot of time tutoring my own classmates in my calculus series). If you find the subject boring, then my own personal goal will be to get you to understand it so well that you eventually enjoy learning about it.
A lot of my excitement is rooted from high school teachers who were good at motivating me and keeping me interested enough to pursue it in college, so even if math and physics aren't your thing, I'm more than willing to tie it into interests you have outside of those fields (for example, I use a great deal of math for sports analytics and statistics). I'm an avid musician, and I do have to deal with logarithmic functions and algebra on a regular basis.
But you know best how you like to learn, and that will be one of my first questions for you!
