Chris L. says, "I studied SAT with David for summer and winter break when I was a junior in HS. I was sick of the other schools and tutors who would just make me do practice questions and go over it, because not only that it was repetitive but also I saw no improvement. David was different, because he actually made me realize that I learnt my english totally wrong even though I went through the whole K-12 in the US, because I didn't know that there were so many structures to grammar and easy tricks to solving SAT questions. He really is a great teacher. I was able to make it to UCLA thanks to him. Really highly recommend, my best teacher for life." Read more

I am a recent high school graduate who was a high achiever. I have very current knowledge of all math topics, all the way through Multivariable Calculus, and can help with Physics or SAT Test Prep in addition. For reference, I scored 1540 on my SAT about a year and a half ago. I know I will be able to connect with your child/student as I was recently in their shoes and would be able to cater to their needs as students and learners. I have tutored at Mathnasium for the past 2 years, in topics all the way through AP Calculus BC. I love to help others learn and continue to grow as a teacher and leader.

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

***With the recent covid challenges, I have successfully established one-on-one internet sessions to help a college student finish both programming and web development classes, receiving an A in both classes Math taught in your language. I focus on the language and directions given, helping students understand by allowing them to read directions. I enjoy helping. I enjoy the beauty of mathematics. I enjoy geometry in the world. I see both everyday. I enjoy seeing students develop their understanding....

I have a strong background in education which includes a bachelor degree in Elementary Education with a minor in math, two master's degrees in education and am currently working on my PhD in Educational Psychology. I have 9 years of teaching experience and have spent the last two years as a math interventionist working with grades 1-8. Students that I work with gain a sense of confidence and begin to feel like mathematicians and find the join in math. Often I hear the words "this is fun" and "oh this isn't that bad".

Your Math Tutoring questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Tutors.

A math tutor costs $25 to $80 per hour when teaching privately and $25 to $50 per hour when tutoring online. SAT math tutoring costs $45 to $100 per hour on average. Math tutoring centers charge $100 to $200 per month for weekly tutoring sessions.

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

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.

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.

Look for the following qualities in a math tutor:

  • Expertise and knowledge on the subject
  • A good communicator and motivator
  • A passionate and enthusiastic teacher
  • Ability to quickly identify the student's needs
  • Teaches to the student's strengths and minimizes their weaknesses
  • Personalizes each session and incorporates connections to the student's interests
  • Listens and communicates often with parents and teachers
  • Is inquisitive and asks the student good, open-ended questions
  • Is persistent but always demonstrates patience and empathy
  • Adaptable and able to explain material in multiple ways
  • Shows positivity and encouragement
  • Has a reputation of professionalism and reliability
  • Has resourcefulness and is tech-savvy

Hiring a math tutor helps struggling children keep up and advances those students who aren't challenged enough. A tutor helps improve any student's knowledge, learning skills, and confidence.

Tutoring is worth the money because:

  • Tutoring strengthens subject comprehension, boosts confidence, and builds important learning skills that a crowded classroom can't offer.
  • Tutoring improves grades and tutored students outperform their peers on examinations.
  • Students develop positive attitudes toward the subject after tutoring.

Home math tutors are available for children in elementary school all the way to students in high school and college. Start by searching our list of private math tutors near you. Then:

  • Ask for recommendations from family, friends, and neighbors.
  • Interview and compare at least three tutors.
  • Check their references and verify their credentials.
  • Read reviews and check out their previous work on Tutors.com and Google.
  • Discuss fees, locations, scheduling, and cancellation policies.
  • Ask what payment methods are accepted and if payment is expected after each session.
  • Consider hiring the tutor on a trial basis to see if they are a good fit.

When looking to hire a good math tutor, ask the following questions:

  • What's your level of education or academic training in math?
  • What are your qualifications, certifications, or credentials?
  • How long have you been tutoring, and how many students have you tutored?
  • What ages and learning styles do you tutor?
  • How will you evaluate my child's needs?
  • What is your tutoring process, methodology, and teaching philosophy?
  • Do you have a curriculum, or do you create personalized content for my child?
  • How do you measure and track progress?
  • What results should I expect to see, and what happens if my child doesn't make any progress?
  • How often will you communicate with me and my child's teachers?
  • Will the tutoring sessions take place in-home, at a public location, or online?
  • How many students will be tutored at a time?
  • How much do you charge, and how long is each session?
  • How long and when are you available to tutor?
  • What's your policy for cancellations and make-up sessions?
  • Can you provide me with a list of references?
  • Are you willing to undergo a background check?
  • What makes you an outstanding math tutor?What questions should I ask a math tutor before hiring?

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!

I could not say enough about Ganesh Susarla. Besides being a wonderful mathematician, he is a truly gifted tutor. Some people know their subjects, but not everyone can teach. Like other tutors we have met through Tutorfly, Ganesh is really a very good teacher. His kind, compassionate, patient, and thorough approach to his subject has given my son the confidence in his math class that he needs to know that he is in control. He now sees himself a a math guy, which is a wonderful turn of events. Another point I'd like to make about Ganesh is that he is so polite and friendly- very easy to talk to and comfortable in his own skin. Our whole family enjoys talking to Ganesh when he's at our house. What a great guy!
