Katherine D. says, "Mrs. Melissa Cook is a wonderful math tutor. She helps my kids a lot. During the covid we had online school for about a year and my kids math skills went down so much. When we started to work with Mrs. Melissa she created a plan (different for each kid) which helps to improve math every day. My kids started to feel math it is not so hard for them anymore. I like she gave my kids a homework which they should do everyday. Since school doesn't provide a homework at all now. I am very glad Mrs. Melissa are working with my kids. Highly recommended."

I’ve been in the tutoring business for about 4.5 months, so I am fairly new. But, I absolutely love the job! I love the interaction that I get with working with the kids, and getting to help them improve in their learning skills. Seeing them improve makes me smile, because I know that I’m helping them get one step closer to reaching their full potential I know they are capable of. I love working with kids, because I’ve always had a knack for knowing how to communicate and interact with them. And that’s why it is my dream to be a teacher.

How do I know if my child needs a math tutor?

Your child may need a math tutor if:

  • Their grades or test scores are declining
  • They get confused or frustrated with homework
  • They are having difficulty or lacking confidence with numbers
  • They are excelling in school and need more challenging tasks
  • You are no longer able to provide help with homework or learning
  • They have a learning disability

How many math tutoring sessions are needed?

Tutors suggest a minimum of one tutoring session per week until students build confidence, understand the subject, and improve grades. Sometimes, a few tutoring sessions can help students get back on track and regain confidence. If the student struggles in two or more classes, more sessions are recommended. On average, students take 9 to 50 sessions.

What do private math tutors do?

Math tutors are responsible for helping students with homework, teaching various mathematical concepts, motivating and boosting confidence, and teaching skills like note-taking, studying, and test-taking. Math tutors also show how to perform calculations, processes, and computations to complete their assignments.

What qualities make a good math tutor?

Look for the following qualities in a math tutor:

  • Expertise and knowledge on the subject
  • A good communicator and motivator

Do math tutors help?

Hiring a math tutor helps struggling children keep up and advances those students who aren't challenged enough. A tutor helps improve any student's knowledge, learning skills, and confidence.

Is math tutoring worth it?

Tutoring is worth the money because:

  • Tutoring strengthens subject comprehension, boosts confidence, and builds important learning skills that a crowded classroom can't offer.

Daniel is an absolutely incredible tutor - not only brilliant, but also able to teach concepts quickly and effectively. He is actually the best tutor I have seen in math/sciences/SAT prep. He is helping both my son and daughter and they feel that he manages to make sessions genuinely entertaining as well. We would highly recommend Daniel as a tutor in SAT prep (all areas)/math and science courses!

Jay would always keep in contact with me to let me know what my son was learning, how he was improving, and how I could help outside of class. My son's American Math Competition scores rose tremendously from 16/25 to 22/25. His school math grades improved from a B to a solid A.

Melissa has been a great tutor for our 5 year daughter over the last 6 months. She comes to each session with a prepared lesson in which we can measure our daughter's progress. We appreciate her expertise and recommendations on learning, and she also takes into account our considerations on lesson planning. Melissa is very warm, personable, and caring with our entire family.
