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

...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 that's easy!" makes my day.

...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 First person games like Call of Duty to Role...

...am fluent in all levels of math, primary, 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...

...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 ideas encouraged. On a personal note, some of my favorite on-campus experiences have included occasions when I played music with...

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

...and witnessing their growth and success. Each student's unique perspective and curiosity inspire me, and I am committed to supporting their academic and personal development. I have experience teaching in classroom settings, where I designed and implemented lesson plans, facilitated discussions, and created a positive learning environment. Engaging with a diverse group of students taught me to adapt my teaching strategies to meet various needs. Also, I have provided one-on-one tutoring in subjects like mathematics,...

...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 the experience, and making things interesting and engaging is one of the foremost vital things I try to always incorporate in my career --...

...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...

...about robotics, engineering, and technology since I was a little kid. My education was a major part of my upbringing and 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...

...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 point that the student has no more difficulties in the math subject. Outside of academia, my main hobbies consist of chess and running. I...

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.

...B.S. in Mathematics with a concentration in Secondary Teacher Prep from VCU. Teaching became my passion quickly after a few 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...

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!

...tutor with a strong background in mathematics, physics, and engineering. I hold a Ph.D. in Mechanical Engineering and have over two decades of teaching experience at the undergraduate and graduate levels. I focus on breaking down complex topics into simple, understandable steps. My teaching approach is personalized to meet each student's needs, ensuring they gain both understanding and confidence in their studies. I use practical examples and tools to help students connect theory with real-world...

...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 shows that math can be just plain cool, which I don't think our curricula prioritize enough. Besides teaching, I enjoy practicing parkour and tricking...

I am a retired mathematics teacher with over 45 years of experience helping students to learn and enjoy mathematics and statistics. I have degrees in mathematics and mathematics education from Ball State and Purdue Universities. I view math as a puzzle and we simply need to determine what are the missing pieces so we can complete and understand the task.

...learn is to discover knowledge through experience and lots of practice which invokes the confidence to overcome challenges while simultaneously lifting inhibitions in regard to tackling new problems. To facilitate such an experience within a classroom environment is especially possible in subjects like mathematics and the physical sciences, by facilitating a working knowledge of contemporary issues in the science through articulation of real-world examples and providing opportunity for hands-on problem solving through exercises. Scientists, leaders...

...due to the lack of tone and author's preconceived notions about the student's background. Therefore, when I tutor I build the framework from the ground up and depend a lot on visual aids (diagrams and charts) rather than formulas and numbers. I believe that there is no such thing as a dumb question and I address each question as many times as necessary . I also include a lot of examples and encourage the students...

...taught about 300 math and statistics courses I then worked over ten years as a professional statistician for companies such as Capital One, Wells Fargo and GE I have extensive experience tutoring one-on-one, teaching in the academic world and applying mathematics and statistics in the real world. I know the theory and I know the applications. My passion is improving the life of my students by teaching them the thinking and problems solving skills that...

...I have mastered the material. When I started tutoring, I received a formal job, from my undergraduate university, at the Learning Den at Johns Hopkins University Office of Student Support. I hosted lectures every week in a variety of subjects spanning mathematics, engineering physics, to chemistry and the biological sciences. Here, I encountered a variety of students and different learning styles, and learned how to adapt to each one. Working with students exposed me to...
