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 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.

Reviews for Hartford math tutors

Recent success stories from people in the Hartford area.
Ronit B.
He was incredibly helpful in helping me understand the content for AP Chemistry. It’s a hard course in general, and it just happened to be a bit more difficult for me. However, having Minh there to help me with problems and explain principles and laws to me definitely kept me at speed with the course’s fast pace. He is also friendly as a person and gave me advice on colleges, tests, and managing time with APs in high school. His availability and quick response time made it easy to schedule times to meet throughout the year, which was useful for last-minute review sessions before unit tests. I was having a rough time with the challenging material, but with Minh's help I eventually got a passing score on the AP exam. Overall, very knowledgeable and friendly tutor!
