I have been coaching students to their best performance in math for seven years. I 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 with students in various languages and levels of computer programming.

Three physics degrees mean Bryan has spent thousands of hours translating real-world problems into mathematical language — setting up integrals, manipulating algebraic expressions, and interpreting what a graph actually tells you. Whether a student is stuck on fraction operations or working through polynomial equations, he connects each procedure to the reasoning behind it so the steps make sense on their own.
Cole's economics graduate work at the University of Amsterdam required heavy quantitative coursework, and he served as a teaching assistant in both economics and mathematics while there. He tackles algebra, functions, and data interpretation by tying abstract operations to concrete problem-solving — building the kind of numerical fluency that carries across subjects.
From elementary arithmetic through calculus, Waleed's engineering background means he doesn't just demonstrate procedures — he explains the reasoning behind each step. Whether a student is struggling with fractions or tackling polynomial equations, he breaks problems into smaller pieces until the logic clicks.
Gary scored a 1500 on the SAT, which required strong quantitative reasoning across algebra, data analysis, and problem-solving under time pressure. He approaches math by emphasizing the logic behind each step — why you isolate a variable this way, or how a word problem translates into an equation — so that procedures make sense instead of feeling arbitrary.
Amber approaches math by connecting abstract procedures to logical reasoning — the same analytical thinking she uses in her legal work. Whether a student is wrestling with fractions, linear equations, or basic functions, she walks through each problem step by step and pinpoints exactly where confusion sets in so it can be addressed directly.
Molly's primary strengths are in writing and test prep, but she also tutors foundational math concepts — arithmetic operations, fractions, basic algebraic reasoning, and the kind of quantitative thinking that shows up in standardized tests. She's especially good at translating word problems into equations, a skill she sharpened while coaching students through the math-adjacent logic of the SAT and LSAT.
Marin's primary expertise is in the humanities and test prep, but her 1530 SAT demonstrates strong quantitative reasoning. She's a good fit for students who need support with foundational math concepts — fractions, proportions, basic algebra — especially when the real barrier is confidence or study habits rather than the content itself.
Growing up as one of seven kids, Austin has been explaining math concepts to different ages and skill levels since long before he earned his applied mathematics degree. Whether a student is wrestling with fraction operations in middle school or integration techniques in college, he unpacks each concept by connecting it to something the student already understands rather than layering on abstract rules.
Currently an adjunct faculty member teaching university-level courses and a tutor preparing elementary students for state math assessments, Joel covers an unusually wide range of math levels. That breadth means he can pinpoint exactly where a gap in foundational skills — fractions, integer operations, order of operations — is causing trouble in more advanced work.
While Briana's primary expertise sits in the humanities and social sciences, she teaches foundational and intermediate math with an emphasis on translating word problems into solvable equations. Her cognitive science training gives her insight into where conceptual misunderstandings tend to form — particularly around fractions, proportional reasoning, and basic algebraic thinking. She's patient with students who've decided they're "not math people" and breaks problems into logical steps that build confidence.
From algebraic manipulation in chemistry stoichiometry to the calculus behind kinetics curves, Anurag used math as a daily tool throughout his science degree rather than treating it as an isolated subject.

His 4.7 rating speaks to an ability to make math feel approachable without oversimplifying it.
From arithmetic fundamentals through early algebra, Ying builds each concept by connecting it to the next — showing students why order of operations matters when they start simplifying expressions, or how fractions become essential once variables enter the picture. Her engineering background at VCU means she sees math as a toolkit, and she teaches it that way.
I am a graduate of Tufts University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in English as well as a minor in History. Since graduation, I have worked as a 7th grade Reading Language Arts teacher in Dallas Texas at a newly formed public all boys school. This has provided me with great experience and insight into how students best learn and how to create culturally responsive lessons that students will engage with. I am most passionate about English, Literature, History, and Spanish. In my experience, working to prepare students for state standardized tests has had the additional benefit of helping students to discover what they enjoy reading about. This increase in intrinsic motivation to read has had an important impact on struggling students. I am dedicated towards ensuring that students are provided with an education that increases their quality of life.
I am currently a lead preschool teacher. I received my Bachelor's in Psychology from VCU and am looking to return to school to further my education. While in college, I worked as a Supplemental Instruction leader, teaching general biology and anatomy. I have also worked in an after school program with elementary age children, but I have my fondest memories volunteering as a counselor for Camp Kesem. In my own experience, I loved school and now I love teaching even more at all age levels! I especially enjoy the challenge of getting creative to discover what approach and mediums work best for each student. I am available for in person as well as online tutoring.
