Evelyn

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +12 Subjects

I am a student at Penn State University, working for my bachelor's degree in architecture with a minor in mathematics. I have worked with elementary students as a summer camp teaching assistant, teaching the basics of Mandarin Chinese, and I have hosted an SAT study group for high school students. I am most passionate about math, including (but not limited to) algebra, geometry, and trigonometry. I find that visual learning seems to click with most students, but I love looking for other teaching methods to help students gain a better understanding of the material. I believe that supportive teaching and understanding are crucial to a student's education, and I will try my best to provide the support they need to meet their personal goals.

Sarah

Pre-Calculus Tutor • +35 Subjects

I recently graduated from Johns Hopkins University with a Bachelor's of Science in Neuroscience. As a prospective medical student, I have and will continue to spend a lot of time in the classroom, understanding what makes teaching and learning most effective. I work to integrate my studies into my tutoring, focusing on giving meaningful examples to help drive complex topics home and provide plenty of opportunities for repetition to increase retention. I have a few years of formal tutoring experience, primarily in middle school and high school math, though my focus and interests have shifted since then. Now, my expertise lies in neuroscience, MCAT prep, and all the relevant class material included in those specialties (biology, chemistry, organic chemistry, biochemistry, physics, etc). I've spent most of my education informally tutoring those around me. Whether it was a teacher's request to help explain a concept to my peers or taking the initiative to help out my peers with challenging subjects, I've had plenty of practice working with a variety of subjects and students. I hope to help students not only learn material but understand how they best learn and study, raising their confidence and comfortability inside and outside of the classroom.

As a student pursuing a Bachelor's in Chemistry from Duke University, I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm for the sciences and mathematics. Though I have experience in tutoring, I view every session as an opportunity to foster a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable to ask questions and explore concepts deeply. My specialties include ACT and SAT preparation, as well as subjects like Algebra, Calculus, and Chemistry. I believe in a hands-on approach that encourages critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I am dedicated to helping students not only achieve their academic goals but also develop a genuine interest in learning.

Pauline

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +30 Subjects

I am a PhD student at UT Southwestern Medical Center. I have received my Master's in Biotechnology at Johns Hopkins University and my Bachelor's in Biochemistry at Southern Methodist University. I've tutored middle school, high school, and college students in math (Algebra I & II, Geometry, Calculus I-II) and science (Biology, Chemistry, Organic Chemistry). I have the most experience with and enjoy teaching Algebra I & II and Chemistry though. I grew up as a athlete myself (figure skater) and so am aware of the strenuous schedule student athletes have and work to be as flexible as I can with my own schedule so that I can accommodate these students.

Viswanath

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +35 Subjects

I am a bioengineer who has experience working in the biotech startup industry. I received my Master of Science in Engineering in Bioengineering from the University of Pennsylvania and a Bachelor of Science degree in Neuroscience from the University of Pittsburgh. While at the University of Pittsburgh, I started to tutor my fellow peers in Engineering Physics I: Mechanics and Engineering Physics 2: Electricity & Magnetism, and it was then that I discovered my passion for tutoring. Seeing a student not only understand physics, but actually enjoy learning about it was easily the most rewarding aspect of tutoring. Their enjoyment led to success and further study of the material, and I was very happy to have contributed to that. From my experiences, I observed that a teaching philosophy based on constant questioning, student participation, and interdisciplinary learning provided the greatest enjoyment and success for students. Relating the material in a manner which the student understands has always been a priority of mine, and combining this approach with a logical, building-block type style has yielded strong results for me and the student. While I do tutor mathematics, usually ranging from Calculus I all the way to Differential Equations, I am most passionate about teaching physics. It is rewarding to see how a student who learns physics understands and appreciates the world around them on a deeper level. In the end, I wish to help students not only learn physics, but also enjoy learning physics, and I hope to spread this appreciation to all my students. Outside of work, I greatly enjoy going to museums, playing and watching all kinds of sports, hiking and other outdoor activities, reading philosophy, and playing guitar.

Frequently Asked Questions

Many middle school students learn to follow procedures without grasping the underlying concepts—they can solve equations but don't understand why the steps work. Expert tutors help bridge this gap by asking questions that guide students to discover patterns, using visuals and manipulatives to make abstract ideas concrete, and connecting new concepts to things students already understand. This deeper understanding builds stronger foundational skills and makes higher-level math feel much less intimidating.

Word problems require students to translate language into mathematical thinking—a skill that takes practice and confidence. Tutors work with students to break problems into manageable steps: identifying what information matters, deciding which operations to use, and checking if answers make sense. Through guided practice with different problem types, students develop strategies they can apply to unfamiliar situations, turning word problems from overwhelming to manageable.

Showing work isn't just about getting the right answer—it helps teachers and tutors understand a student's thinking process, identify where misconceptions happen, and build mathematical communication skills that matter in higher grades. Tutors model clear, organized work, explain why each step matters, and help students recognize that showing work actually makes problems easier to solve and easier to check. This habit becomes invaluable in algebra, geometry, and beyond.

Multi-step equations frustrate many middle schoolers because they involve juggling multiple operations and keeping track of what's happening to the variable. Expert tutors break the process into smaller, visual steps—often using balance analogies or color-coding to show how operations affect both sides of an equation equally. Students practice with scaffolded problems that gradually increase in complexity, building confidence and developing a reliable strategy they can use consistently.

Math anxiety often stems from past struggles, negative experiences, or comparing oneself to peers—not from actual ability. Personalized tutoring creates a low-pressure environment where students can ask questions without judgment, work at their own pace, and celebrate small wins. As students experience success and understand concepts more deeply, their confidence grows. Many students are surprised to discover they can actually do math when they're not rushed or stressed—it completely shifts their perspective.

Yes. Different textbooks and curricula emphasize different approaches—some focus heavily on visual models, others on procedural fluency, and many blend both. Expert tutors understand these variations and can work with your student's specific curriculum, textbook, and classroom approach. This alignment means students get reinforcement that matches what their teacher is doing, making classroom lessons clearer and homework easier to tackle.

One hallmark of mathematical thinking is recognizing that seemingly different topics are actually connected. For example, fractions, decimals, and percentages are different representations of the same idea. Expert tutors deliberately point out these connections, help students organize their thinking with visual tools like concept maps, and revisit earlier concepts when learning new ones. When students see math as an interconnected web rather than isolated topics, it becomes easier to remember, easier to apply, and far less overwhelming.
