Hello! My name is Caitlin Bussey, and I am a current college student. I have a completed Math minor, and have been tutoring students from Elementary-High School in Math for the past 5 years. My strengths are in pre-algebra, algebra, trigonometry, and calculus. My goal is to help students go past the plug and chug method to really understand the "how" of math, especially since assesments are leaning towards word problems that require practical applications of the techniques learned in class.

  • They are excelling in school and need more challenging tasks
  • You are no longer able to provide help with homework or learning

On average, students take 9 to 50 sessions.

What do private math tutors do?

Mrs. Johnson is the MOST AMAZING tutor for my 10-year old son. She not only taught him how to write in cursive (which they don't teach in schools much), but she worked with him on a variety of school subjects. His proficiency and comprehension improved, as did his grades. Mrs. Johnson is competent, patient, caring, innovative, creative, and structured. I give her my highest recommendation - and I know that my son does as well.
