Award-Winning Finite Mathematics Tutors for Students in Richmond, VA

...the world works. My teaching style is personalized to each student. No one person learns the same way and at the same speed. I am patient and fun to learn with. In my spare time I play my guitar and video games. I own and play an epiphone les paul and am into almost any type of music, usually anything that is fun to play along with. I play all types of video games from...

...secondary, and freshman/sophomore university level. I am also fluent with the mathematics which one may find on the ACT, SAT, GRE, ASVAB, CLEP test and most standardized test. My background in Engineering also gives me a level of confidence with computer science and general sciences such as physics and chemistry. I have over a year of study in each myself. Overall, I have had much success working with students in various languages and levels of...

...who I am today, so tutoring seems like a good way to give others the same support I received. Few experiences have been as rewarding as sharing my passion for science and tech with kids as a robotics camp counselor. Seeing children get excited to learn about programming, design, and problem solving the same way I did at their age with my old legos was amazing. Right now I'm looking to tutor in mostly STEM...

...GRE Quantitative, and graduate-level statistics. These are my favorite subjects to tutor students in because they are subjects that I have a very good knowledge of and want to help people succeed in these areas. My methodology for tutoring people is as follows: [1] Find out exactly what parts of the math subject the student needs help with [2] Make a tentative schedule for going over the said parts. [3] Cover those parts to the...

...to ensure that my students understand the basic concepts of the material as well as real world examples where this math would be valuable. I work to ensure that they have the best techniques and practical skills to perform well on tests and to be able to do the homework on their own after our sessions are over. I take pride in the accomplishments and skills my students gain through our tutoring sessions.... I want students...

Math can be hard. I'm here to help!

...University and have worked as an Actuary for 25 years. Many students feel like they're bad at math, when they're really just missing one or two key concepts. I enjoy one-on-one tutoring because I can talk to a student, identify issues, and help in understanding the concepts and ideas. We'll draw pictures and graphs to illustrate, and explain it all in language the student can understand. Hearing a student say "Is that all?" or "But...

...related fields and the subfields of those fields, tutoring, and teaching experience for me is a rather enjoyable and friendly time spent doing the stuff that I already enjoy. I have continued tutoring those and a couple of other subjects during my graduate studies in college, where I obtained my B.S. double majoring in Mathematics and Physics and minoring in Chemistry and Astrophysics. It is important to remember that studies can be fun! And gamifying...

...privilege that I took seriously every time I walked into my classroom. In terms of academics, I believe that students, when placed in appropriate courses, rise to a high level of accomplishment if they are given the appropriate challenge and are encouraged to succeed. The teacher must create an atmosphere of trust by demonstrating genuine care. Further, the classroom environment must be such that students feel that their questions are welcome, their opinions valued, and...

I am passionate about mathematics test preparation and core mathematics understanding. Through repetition, technology, and real world scenarios the toughest mathematics road blocks can be taken out. I also thoroughly enjoy helping people crush college and graduate school entry exams. If it involves mathematics, statistics, or technology it is my kind of stuff.

...experiences as a Teaching Assistant in several college Algebra classes. Since then I have been in high schools tutoring and co-teaching Algebra, Algebra 2, Geometry, and Pre-Calculus. I aim to improve students' understanding of and appreciation for Mathematics through a patient, considerate, and adaptable teaching approach. I am committed to this goal by working diligently in practicing my art of teaching and learning to accommodate every person/child's specific needs. When Im not tutoring/teaching, I spend...

Hi, guys. My name is Ankit, and I attend Virginia Commonwealth University. My strengths are in math and science, as I have taken multiple AP credits in high school. I tutored many students in high school through a tutoring program. In high school, I played basketball and played table tennis. I love to watch the different sports. I am excited to meet you guys!

...knowing the formulas and procedures is important, memorizing mathematical formulas without appreciating the concepts is akin to memorizing the lines of a Shakespeare play without paying attention to the underlying prose. My strongest subjects are linear algebra and pre-calculus though I am proficient at tutoring all high school and college underclassmen mathematical subjects. I hope that my passion is contagious and that all of my students leave me not only having learned the material but...

...SAT and other standardized tests, because I believe that with enough practice and some solid test-taking strategies, anyone can master these. As a former Division I runner, I've learned the importance of persistence and hard work, and I love sharing these values with my students and helping them to make significant gains. Outside of tutoring, I work as a scientist at a healthcare startup, and when I'm not at work I'm likely to be found...

...I can make a student interested in a topic and engage with their learning style, learning happens much faster and more effectively, and doesn't feel like work. I endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also...

...levels, and I am committed to helping students gain understanding and confidence in all fields of math; not just pass a test. Math is a life skill that can be very joyous, and this viewpoint is my ultimate goal when tutoring any subject. I have seen students go from D+ to A- in a variety of classes, with a renewed confidence and understanding of the material. I take personal pride in seeing once timid students...

...there working in the math tutoring center. I loved being able to work one-on-one with students and see their growth as they started to understand the material. I strongly believe that understanding concepts is just as important as being able to work out technical problems, and that all students (regardless of perceived mathematical intelligence) have the ability to do so. I also understand how mathematics functions to gatekeep some students from certain majors and jobs...

I majored in Middle Eastern Studies and minored in math during undergrad at Cornell. Since graduating I've worked in a number of fields and countries, although the common theme is teaching English and researching in the Middle East. As an English Teaching Assistant at Weill Medical School in Qatar, I became competent at editing and guiding students in writing. I'm now a first year fellow studying Policy Analysis at the Pardee RAND Graduate School.

I am a Computer Science Master's student at DePaul with a BS in Environmental Science from the University of Chicago.... Math builds on itself. Build a strong foundation.... Ask for past home works and tests.... By showing them that everything they learn can be used to build and create new things.

...like to add confidence in your math skills and help you grow your ability. Besides tutoring University of Massachusetts students, I interned at a surgical instruments manufacturing company called Surgistar. I aided in doubling their blade production ability using mathematics and simulation. Also, I patented a premium, adjustable bike seat to address current bicycling discomforts (currently I am seeking to license my invention to manufacturers to produce my seat). I specialize in optimization, so let's...
