Matthew
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +43 Subjects
I am one year from completing my Bachelor of Science at the Florida Institute of Technology. I am majoring in both Astronomy and Astrophysics, as well as Planetary Science; with a minor in Computer Science. Upon completion of my Bachelor degree I plan on pursuing a Masters degree, most likely in Physics, Exoplanetary Studies, or Engineering Physics. I find that most students struggle in math and physics because they lack true engagement towards these topics, it is my personal philosophy that how you learn a subject can immensely impact your abilities to succeed in and willingness to pursue related subjects in your academic career. I enjoy working with all ages, as I believe it is never too late to start learning and I enjoy helping students become passionate about their studies. Personally; I am passionate about the fundamental interplay between foundational mathematics and its applications to higher-level physics. My tutoring style/strategies require interactive engagement with students and honest communication; this allows me to understand precisely what is necessary to enhance your learning experience, and encourages students to engage with the content with curiosity and excitement. I feel comfortable tutoring subjects ranging from elementary school mathematics, up to college level mathematics and physics courses. I have experience tutoring my college peers in a wide-range of topics from college algebra and calculus to advanced physics courses such as Electromagnetic Theory and Physical Mechanics.

Cera
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +58 Subjects
I am a graduate of Brigham Young University with a Bachelor's degree in manufacturing engineering. I am also a Salt Lake Community College graduate. I love building things, challenging the status quo, and studying the way the world works. I have tutored for just over three years, and I tutor physics, algebra, reading, and test prep. Physics is one of my passions because I love learning about the world around me. Physics is intuitive and learning the laws that govern the world around us helps expand our understanding. I am a very hands-on tutor. I believe that working directly with things and especially working on projects of interest helps us learn and make connections better than anything else. I love analogies, experiments, and anything else that helps bring the problems off the page and into the student's life. I love to invent and build things and I spend most of my spare time working on humanitarian teams through my university or sewing my own clothing.

Embarking on the journey of education can be an exciting and equally anxiety provoking endeavor. There are many exams to take, projects to complete, and deadlines to meet. This is in no way an easy journey but it is a worthwhile one. A journey that will see you grow into your true potential. Whenever you gain a new piece of understanding of the world around you, your perception of the world forever changes, you see things you could not see before. This is a magical process; my life is dedicated to facilitating this process for others. I began my own journey of higher education with the Biological Sciences. During my third year of college I constantly found myself in a position where I was helping my peers understand the material and I realized that I thoroughly enjoyed doing this. I began working as a tutor at my college and then worked as a teaching assistant in the Gross Anatomy and Cell Biology Labs. From there I went to medical school in Brooklyn, NY. During medical school I continued developing my passion for teaching. Running tutoring sessions for my peers and underclassmen, organizing a medical education and exposure program for high school students known as HPREP, creating educational materials in the form of video demonstrations, and eventually being hired as an adjunct professor of Gross Anatomy for the Occupational Therapy program at Downstate Medical Center. I am currently in the medical education track at my school and in training to become a full-time faculty member after graduating. My teaching style is focused on meeting the student where they are. I always begin assessing the current knowledge base and level of understanding so I can have a good idea of where to start. From there we will work together and I will adapt my teaching style according to how the student best assimilates knowledge. I take pride in being adaptable and flexible. Thank you for taking the time to read my personal statement. I would be excited to obtain the opportunity to work with you.

Frequently Asked Questions
The Reasoning Through Language Arts section consistently challenges students, particularly the reading comprehension and grammar components. Many test-takers struggle with the math section due to gaps in foundational algebra and geometry concepts, especially when questions require multi-step problem-solving or interpreting graphs and data. The Science and Social Studies sections demand strong reading comprehension combined with the ability to analyze passages and apply knowledge—skills that don't always develop naturally without targeted practice. A tutor can identify which of these areas represents your biggest gap and build a focused study plan accordingly.
Pacing is one of the most common GED challenges because the test is timed and students often spend too long on difficult questions. Effective pacing requires practicing with full-length, timed practice tests to build your internal clock and learn which question types you can answer quickly versus which ones need more thought. A tutor can teach you strategic skipping—identifying when to move past a question and return to it later—and help you develop section-specific timing targets (for example, spending roughly 1.5 minutes per math question). The key is practicing this strategy repeatedly so it becomes automatic on test day rather than something you're thinking about.
Yes—this is one of the most common situations tutors work with. The GED math section tests algebra, geometry, and data analysis, but many adult learners have significant gaps from years away from school. A tutor will assess your current level, identify which foundational concepts you need to rebuild (like order of operations, solving equations, or working with fractions), and create a sequenced study plan that fills those gaps before moving to test-specific strategies. Rather than trying to memorize formulas, effective GED math tutoring focuses on understanding the underlying concepts so you can apply them to unfamiliar question formats on test day.
GED reading passages often contain dense, complex text, and students frequently get stuck trying to understand every detail before answering questions. The most effective approach is to skim the passage first to understand its main idea and structure, then refer back to specific sections when answering individual questions—you don't need to fully comprehend everything upfront. Tutors teach students to identify question types (main idea, inference, vocabulary in context, etc.) because each type requires a slightly different strategy. Practicing this method with real GED passages helps you move faster while maintaining accuracy, which directly improves your score.
Test anxiety often stems from uncertainty about what to expect or fear of encountering unfamiliar question formats. Tutoring reduces anxiety by building genuine familiarity with the test through repeated practice with official GED materials and full-length practice tests under timed conditions. When you've seen the types of questions, practiced your pacing strategy, and experienced success on similar problems, test day feels less threatening. A tutor also helps you develop confidence in your problem-solving process—knowing you have a strategy for tackling difficult questions is often more calming than trying to memorize content.
The most reliable way is to take a full-length practice test under timed conditions, then analyze your results by section and question type rather than just looking at your overall score. You might discover that you're strong in math but weak in reading comprehension, or that you struggle specifically with inference questions in science. A tutor can help you interpret these results and prioritize—focusing first on areas where small improvements will have the biggest impact on your overall score. This targeted approach is much more efficient than general studying, especially if you're preparing on a timeline.
The ideal schedule depends on your starting point and target timeline, but most adult learners benefit from 3-5 hours of focused study per week spread across multiple sessions rather than cramming. A typical approach might be two 1.5-hour tutoring sessions per week combined with independent practice between sessions. Early in your preparation, you'll spend time building foundational knowledge and understanding question formats; as test day approaches, you'll shift toward full-length practice tests and reviewing weak areas. Your tutor can help you create a personalized timeline based on a diagnostic assessment and your target test date.
GED questions often require you to apply knowledge in unfamiliar ways—for example, math questions might present a real-world scenario you need to translate into an equation, or reading questions might ask you to infer an author's purpose rather than recall a fact. This format confusion is normal because it's different from how many adults remember being tested in school. The solution is exposure and practice: working through dozens of official GED questions helps you recognize patterns and develop intuition for what each question type is really asking. A tutor can walk you through the reasoning behind correct and incorrect answers, which accelerates this learning process far more than practicing alone.
