Math Help
If you are having trouble with the class (and want help about it) then please let me know! Stop by my office hours. If you cannot make them, let me know and I will try to shift them if possible. There's nothing more tragic to me than a student who is struggling but has the motivation to succeed. Also, go to Dr.Fraiman's and/or Gianni Anfuso's office hours and they will be happy to help. If you cannot make any of our office hours, it is acceptable practice to actually go to the office hours of other TA's for the other sections of Math 104. If you use this option, be sure to ask the targeted TA beforehand to make sure that this is okay for them.
Penn also has an abundance of resources available for you, and many of them are free! Here is more information:
Math/Maple and Sunday Night Review Schedule
There are reviews on Sunday evenings in DRL for each calculus course as well as math help sessions on Monday-Thursday evenings around campus and online help available after that (see Blackboard below). If you just have a few questions this will be helpful but if you need extended time of one-on-one assistance you should go to office hours.
Tutoring Center
Penn offers free tutors as well.
Blackboard
The online help can be found on Blackboard. Go to the plenary site for our class, and on the left click "Calculus discussion." Some one will be there answering questions Mon-Thurs from 9PM to 1AM.
Math Department's List of Approved Private Tutors
Here is a list of tutors (mostly fellow graduate students) along with their hourly wages. Note that it is the department's policy that I cannot tutor people in my class for pay! Feel free to ask me for recommendations.
