Michelle L. says, "Patrick tutored my 9th grade daughter in Geometry, and we had such a positive experience. He is friendly, approachable, and brought a fresh perspective to the material. My daughter mentioned that she felt much more comfortable learning with him because of his patience and supportive style. With his help, she not only earned an A in the class but also gained valuable test-taking strategies, like practicing sequencing and breaking problems into steps. I highly recommend Patrick as a tutor!" Read more

Danielle G. says, "Aniruddha has been nothing but excellent, knowledgeable, and kind. He is a brilliant teacher who far surpasses any math education experience my daughter has had her entire school career. He has gotten my daughter from average grades in precalculus to all As. His style of teaching is interactive and what math education should be. He is kind and patient, as well as flexible with scheduling. We will continue with A2 tutoring for AP calculus next year, as I know his teaching will be far superior to any education she will get at the high school. I give my highest recommendations, and I cannot say enough positive things about our experience with Aniruddha. A+++++" Read more

Anne A. says, "I have known and hired Dan as a math tutor since 2015. Dan has worked with all three of my high school aged children. Dan has an incredible way of assessing the needs of the student he is working with, and tailoring his tutoring style to best suit the student. The comment I heard most from my kids (all with very differnt learning styles) was "Dan is SO good at explaining things! If I don't understand a problem, he can explain it a whole different way - even a third way if needed. He is so much better at explaining math concepts than any of my high school teachers." As a parent, I apprecialte Dan's calm demeanor and professionalism while still remaining relatable to the students he is working with. I highly recommend Dan as a subject tutor or test prep tutor. He is fantastic." Read more

Hello! I’m Erica, a dedicated tutor who loves working with kids and helping them discover the joy of learning. As a current undergraduate at UC Berkeley, I understand what it's like to struggle in school—I once faced challenges in all subjects during middle school but persevered to achieve academic success. This experience allows me to deeply empathize with students who face similar difficulties, and I am committed to guiding them on their path to success. I have many years of experience as a leader and peer tutor, having taught students in various clubs and offered free tutoring to my underclassmen in high school. My teaching approach is

  • 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?

Reviews for Richmond math tutors

Recent success stories from people in the Richmond area.
Mai T.
It was amazing to see Amadeus Ciok and my son working very hard together to improve the grade in such a short time. At first, my son was skeptical about working with a tutor, but after the 1st evaluation session, he wanted to continue. He was comfortable working with Amadeus due to his patience and easy-to-understand way of teaching, My friend’s daughter also got help from him and they were happy about the final grade. I highly recommend him for one-to-one tutoring service.
