Jeff L. T. says, "Maria has been tutoring my son Aiden for several months in Pre-Calc. I've very pleased with her demeanor, inviting semi- Socratic style and thoughtful approach as she guides him through his lessons. She carefully identifies his strengths and weaknesses then helps him transition into more critical thought and reflection working through the why's, how's, and relevance of each problem area in the overall scheme. He comes to his own solutions (most of the time--lol!) in ways that build on his strengths and strengthens his weaknesses in a fun way. With Maria its not just getting the right answers, its understanding the right questions. Aiden looks forward to his sessions each week and his grades reflect her impact. I see his confidence building in learning. Most importantly, Aiden is smiling again when it comes to math and looks forward to preparing for each week! Thanks Maria!" Read more

I love helping students get past mental blocks and gain confidence in math and science skills. I find I can do this by connecting the student with the concept through the student's other interests and subjects where the student already feels confident.

Catherine R. says, "Emily has been tutoring my daughter in math for about six months. My daughter has always had a difficult time with math. I was seeing a trend that my daughters dread of math was leading her to avoid signing up for science courses that have a math component even though she really likes science. I didn't want her to be limited by math in school or in life so I sought tutoring. Emily first helped my daughter do some prep work for her college entrance exams and she has continued to help her this semester with her math course. My daughter added 6 points onto her ACT math score between the pre-ACT and regular ACT and currently has an A in her dual-credit pre-calculus course. I feel this is a a direct result of Emily's work with her. More importantly, she is feeling much more confident about the math she will encounter in college. Emily is also a pleasure to work with. She makes scheduling and payment very easy and is extremely organized and reliable." Read more

I am engineering student that has 1 year experience of teaching University students Calculus and Pre-Calculus. Although I spend most of my time working with college students I can work with anyone of any age. My primary focus is solely on fostering the success of each student. Whether you're an extrovert or introvert, looking for a short or long answer I can tailor my approach to align with their unique goals (while decreasing a persons hate for math along the way).

I have been tutoring for years. I first math tutored voluntarily at my high school to struggling students after school. I have a strong mastery of all high school mathematical concepts up until calculus. I also scored in the 99th percentile on the SAT (1500). I was an SAT tutor for the nonprofit student led organization, EduVisa. I am passionate about teaching because tutoring other students gives me a constant challenge to better my own understanding of the material. Explaining a concept simply to another person is the test for whether you understand it yourself, as quoted by Albert Einstein. I believe in this because tutoring other students...

Austin was *wonderful* to work with! He made a quick and easy connection with my 9th grade son and was encouraging and patient as he worked to understand where my son's level of understanding was as they worked to improve his comprehension of the class material. I would often hear my son saying, "Ohhh, I get it now!" and was thrilled for a tutor who could explain such complicated things in a way that was more clear-cut and relatable to my son. Austin was flexible with our schedule when we had occasions where we needed to alter our appointments, which I greatly appreciated. He is one of the most pleasant, professional, upbeat tutors we have ever worked with. In addition, he is incredibly skilled in this area. I highly recommend him for those of you looking for a tutor!
