I am a certified K-9th-grade teacher that started tutoring Math in 2010 in Elementary Math, Prealgebra, Algebra, and Geometry. I have a large number of satisfied customers and have worked with a couple of families for more than a year each. I always make sure that a child understands the topic we are covering before we end our sessions and will spend extra time with them to make sure they are satisfied.

Alex O. says, "I liked how Mike narrowed down the key concepts in every section of each chapter that my Calculus 1 course covered. He helped me achieve my goal of comprehension and application by explaining the definition of each formula, theorem, rule, etc. and then walking me through example problems step-by-step until I felt confident in my ability. Above all, he helped me accomplish all of this while I was under the stress of racing against time. Had my mother not found this tutor, I wouldn’t have gotten the chance to learn the material, complete the assignments and projects, and ,with full confidence, take the final exam all in time. Not only did Michael help me save my grade, he also helped me on my college path as I need a solid understanding of Calculus 1 for my Biology Major going forward. A lot of the calculations I’ll be performing once I become a scientist will be grounded in Calculus (I.e derivatives), so Michael’s help in forming a solid foundation in Calculus was crucial to me. I’d definitely recommend him as a College/High school level Math and Physics tutor. I’ll be sure to refer him to a close friend of mine who shares my level of struggle with Pre-Calculus." Read more

Kangsoo Y. says, "We just moved to the US from Korea and the change has been very tough for my kids. They are not familiar with the US school system and falling behind. I saw their confidence draining. But all of that changed when SoFlo came into the picture. To start, they gave a free assessment so they could figure out where my children were struggling. From there we had weekly tutoring sessions that my kids actually enjoy. I am seeing their confidence return and life in the US get better for them" Read more

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

My daughter had to write a pre-algebra test in a few days and I was concerned she was struggling. I contacted SoFlo online, expressed my concern and in spite of the tight schedule they moved things around to accommodate my daughter. I witnessed the session and it’s the best thing since sliced bread. I love the teaching method, and that my daughter was offered multiple methods to solve the same problem. I recommend SoFlo highly!
SoFlo Math Tutoring
Aariv G.
One more person to add to your list of SoFlo successes! One need not look any further for a statistics tutor. Our tutor Manny yield successful results! His experience is evident as is his love of teaching. He identified my problems at their root and created a customized plan to help me improve. My tutor is a great motivator, making the material relevant and easy to understand with nice examples. Thank you for helping restore my confidence. The world needs great teachers as talented and devoted as you are Manny. I can say that you are in a league of your own. What a great mathematician/statistician you are! I tried two other statistics instructors that had great reviews and high credentials, but they did not make a positive enough impact on my statistics learning like you were able to do for me. They also charged more. I achieved more learning in less time when you taught. You're smart and you care for all the right reasons. My only regret or misfortune was that I had not discovered you earlier. Results are achievable with you! I'm living proof!
