Ricky S. says, "Honestly, I don't think I would have passed my certification without High Peak Education. Paul was amazing - seriously so patient with me even though I probably asked a million questions. He never made me feel dumb or rushed, which was huge for me. I was really struggling with some of the material and getting pretty stressed about the test, but Paul just had this way of explaining things that finally made it click. He didn't just throw information at me - he actually made sure I got it before moving on. The whole experience was way better than I expected. I actually felt prepared going into my test instead of just hoping for the best. And I passed! If you're thinking about using them for your certification prep, definitely do it. Paul knows his stuff and genuinely cares about helping you succeed. Can't ask for much more than that." Read more

My goal is to help you to understand math as well as you need to or as well as you want to. Math has always been my passion. I am currently a Mathnasium instructor. My tutoring experience ranges from helping a 4th grader gain confidence in his mathematical ability, to helping high school math team students understand how to solve competition problems. My tutoring philosophy focuses on trying to figure out what the student is thinking when they encounter a difficult problem, help guide their thinking and if an idea they come up with doesn’t work for the current problem, explain how it might work for a similar problem. I like providing helpful

Hello, My name is Gabrielle. Math is my favorite subject. I have an associates degree from Central Oregon Community College with a major in math and a minor in engineering. Math is my all time favorite subject because every problem is a puzzle and makes you think in a different way. When you finally solve it it is very satisfying. I enjoy helping others with math because I also experienced great difficulties with some of my latest math classes and would like to help others not feel so overwhelmed with their work. Math is difficult and isn't everyone's favorite subject, but I hope I can bring my passion for math and help others see it's not

I've talked to so many adults that say they hated math or science. I think that is a shame because I have a feeling that they just had a bad teacher or were in the wrong class. Both math and science were very easy for me and I have the gift of not only understanding both subjects but also being able to explain them to others. I like to explain things in terms of the real world (Look at any bridge and you will see Geometry at work). I make sure that my students really understand what they are being taught by having them explain it back to me. It's painful at times but oh so rewarding when I see the bell go off in their heads when they really g

  • 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?

On average, students take 9 to 50 sessions.

What do private math tutors do?

My son was diagnosed 12 years ago with ADHD when in kindergarten and has always despised math. You can imagine the problems we've had with his school where anything math was concerned. Rivers of tears for him and many sleepless nights for me. After 3 weeks of working with Ms. Mel, he reported to me that he actually "liked" math now. I could not believe my ears! She helped him relearn the basics and move on to complex problems, all of which he retains to this day. It was miraculous ... She is an AMAZING, patient, steady, structured teacher who expects that each one of her students will get it once everything clicks. Her goal is to make math enjoyable by building the student's confidence and boy, does she deliver! HIGHLY RECOMMEND Ms. Mel!

Math is one of those subjects that can be very daunting and also very dry (i.e boring!) however, Live Online Math has proved both to be wrong!! The teachers are beyond caring and go the extra mile by offering to tutor as well! One couldn't ask for a better tutor, than their own teacher! The tutor experience has proven to bring success to my kids and it makes math a warm, personal experience vs being alone in the dark and confusion. I cannot express my positive experience with Live Online Math and highly recommend it to those who struggle and also those who excel. I'm so grateful that I found them!
