Professor Ali K. Abadi, Ph.D., is a Senior Teaching Associate who joined Pansophy Education in 2017. Ali has taught math at universities, colleges, high schools, and privately for over 20 years, being dedicated to helping students achieve their goals through a combination of traditional and modern teaching approaches. His teaching specializations include Pre-Calculus, AP Calculus (and Canadian/U.S. curricular Calculus); Linear Algebra; Differential Equations; Discrete Mathematics; Probability & Statistics; and Geometry. Ali has prepared students for math contests (CEMC suite of contests; AMC 8/10/12), standardized tests (SAT, ACT), and the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.
Prior to joining Pansophy, Ali served as Dean of the Faculty of Science & Math at Azad University (Tehran, Iran); worked as a data analyst with Amazon; and lectured and prepared curricula for several universities. At Azad, Ali taught over 60 terms of Precalculus and Calculus I, II, and III; over 40 terms of Linear Algebra, Probability & Statistics, and Mathematical Engineering; over 30 terms of Differential Equations; and dozens of terms of Analysis I, II, and III, Numerical Analysis, Topology, and middle and high school mathematics courses. Ali’s research has been published in the Journal of the Royal Society, Journal of Sciences, International Journal of Theoretical Physics, and arXiv. In addition, Ali has published three books in Calculus, two books in Pre-Calculus, and one book in Applied Mathematics, all in Persian.
Ali received his M.Sc. in Mathematics from Bahonar University (Kerman, Iran) (thesis: Symmetric frames and basics in Hilbert spaces), and his Ph.D. in Mathematics from Tarbiyat Modares University (Tehran, Iran) (thesis: Selective visual attention method with the free-energy principle in image processing).
