Jing W. says, "I learned about Sophie from a friend referral. She has a great perceptive of seeing my son's needs and meeting where he is at. My son has ADHA. She has been working with him once a week on his middle school math assignments and helping him prepare for assessments. She uses creative kinesthetic learning activities to keep my son stay engaged. He always seems to enjoy his sessions because they not only talk about math but also various trendy topics that my son finds interesting.

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

Tutoring is worth the money because:

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

Reviews for Rockville math tutors

Recent success stories from people in the Rockville area.
Sagar G.
Sophie has been tutoring my 10 year old daughter math. My daughter was having a hard time paying attention and retaining what she learned in the classroom. Sophie is an observant teacher and very knowledgeable in math. She is personable and my daughter enjoys working with her. Sophie ties her school curriculum with her interest and makes the lessons fun and relatable. I also liked that she has developed her own Canvas content to incorporate in her lessons, which has greatly helped my kid with her testing preparation. With Sophie's help and encouragement, my daughter is gaining confidence in math and in the classroom!

Mr. Ghassemi is a very great tutor. In fact, I would say that he is better than my teacher at school. The main reason behind this is because he goes in depth with the lessons and gives numerous practice problems, both MCQ and FRQ for me [student] to understand. He also gives detailed solutions to each one and works with the student had they got it wrong or simply do not understand. When a student simply does not understand, he is extremely patient and listens to their ideas and provides an explanation if their ideas are correct, if they are wrong he makes sure to delve deeper into the concepts that are required for the optimal understanding of that problem. He also makes sure you understand the concptual reasoning behind each question. Mr. Ghassemi is definitely highly qualified in both Maths and Physics. He spends a lot of time on his own apart from the one on one student session to work each problem out before hand and sometimes even provides multiple approaches or solutions regarding how to solve the questions. He helps with both preparing for the AP Exams as well as preparing for unit tests and homework given by the school. I would definitely recommend Mr. Ghassemi to anyone requiring a high quality tutor that gives high quality services!

Chidubem has been tutoring my daughter since February this year, and she has been more than amazing. She helped us with Algebra, Biology, and SAT prep tutoring, and my daughter has been getting much higher scores and feeling way more comfortable with school since we started with her. She got an A in both classes (she had struggled with getting A's in Math before) and a 1410 on her SAT (up from 1250 in her PSAT!!). We had a tutor before Chidubem, but unfortunately, they were not able to form the relationship Chidubem had created with her. I am honestly so insanely grateful for Chidubem; she has made my daughter much more interested in school and studying in general and she is just amazing. I HIGHLY recommend her!!!

Dolores and I started working together my freshman year of college when I struggle with pre calculus and kept working together for the 3 following years as I had to take Calc 1 and 2 and linear algebra for my Computer science major. She’s the best teacher I’ve ever had, even better than my professors, and it was a blessing to be able to work with her all these years! Thank you so much Dolores »
