Alexander
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +19 Subjects
I am currently a double major at Rice University working towards a B.A. in mathematics and philosophy and expecting to graduate in December 2015. My education is geared towards a future in risk analysis and thus is heavily dependent on high level mathematics. My favorite subject is statistics. Not only does statistics incorporate other disciplines like calculus, but it also is very useful for modeling the real world. I have about one year of experience tutoring algebra and pre-algebra with good results.
Aadith
Middle School Math Tutor • +22 Subjects
I'm an undergraduate at Rice University, majoring in Physics and Biochemistry, with a strong passion for research, classical music, and good teaching. I've loved math and science from a young age and am eager to share my knowledge with other students. I believe that everyone deserves to enjoy learning about our world and that everyone has their own preferred way to learn. That's why I hope to offer personalized tutoring that helps you learn not just the material but also how to better teach yourself.
Alexander
AP Calculus BC Tutor • +20 Subjects
I'm currently attending Rice University- pursuing a double major Bachelor of Arts in Applied Mathematics and Mathematical Economics. As you can probably tell I'm very passionate about math, and I'm even more passionate about teaching it! I prefer to teach math a little differently than some of you may used to. Many of students think of math as a plug and chug approach- simply being given formulas and plugging numbers in. While I will give you the formulas and critical things to remember if you insist on it, I prefer to teach mathematics as a form of problem solving. How math works is a beautiful thought process- understanding how a formula was conceived is much more rewarding than simply memorizing it. But in the end it's all up to you- the student. If you want a fast run-down of everything you need to know to ace the test- I'll happily help you. However, if you're willing to think outside of the box and learn some very neat stuff, I'll open the doors to mathematical problem solving for you!
Vinson

I'm currently a freshman at Rice University studying applied math. I've always had a love for sharing knowledge with others, and I started tutoring when I was a junior in high school. As a former AP student and a National AP Scholar, I have the experience necessary to guide my students through challenging curriculum. Though I specialize in tutoring mathematics and physics, I am experienced with and am happy to tutor a broad range of subjects.

Emmanuel
Calculus Tutor • +45 Subjects
I am a graduate of the Johns Hopkins University with a major in Behavioral Biology. I am seeking admission to MD/PhD programs so a lot of my time has been spent in the lab, from a computational neuroscience lab at Hopkins to a genome editing lab at Rice. That being said, I have extensive experience tutoring for the ACT (35) and MCAT (516), both privately and contractually. I aim to get students the score of their dreams. With a solid plan of action and dedication YOU can get there.

In addition to my educational pursuits, I have worked as a teacher, K-12 administrator, consultant, college instructor, and tutor. I have spent my entire career working in education because I enjoy helping people experience the joys of gaining new knowledge and skills through learning. I have a wealth of experience helping students of all ability levels achieve their academic and personal goals in a wide range of areas, and I take pride in my positive approach to growing learners. In my spare time, I enjoy cooking, traveling, and catching live sporting events.
Kendall
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +48 Subjects
I am able to tutor in a variety of subjects from middle school all the way up to introductory college courses. I especially enjoy helping students with math or English coursework. I can also help with a variety of standardized tests, from the SSAT to the MCAT. I am very interested in helping students overcome test anxiety by learning strategies that can help them stay calm and be efficient. In particular, I want to help students who struggle with timed essays - I myself had to learn ways to complete them successfully, and I hope I can pass on some of these skills. Hobbies: reading, music, singing, art, outdoors, books, writing

This personalized approach often leads to improved grades, stronger test performance, and a genuine love of learning.
We take time to understand your child's learning style, academic goals, and personality to find the best fit. When you connect with us, we gather information about your child's subjects, strengths, and challenges. Our team uses this insight to match them with an expert tutor who has proven success in those areas and whose teaching approach aligns with how your child learns best.
We offer tutoring across all major subjects—from elementary math and reading through advanced high school courses like calculus, chemistry, and AP subjects. Our expert tutors also specialize in test prep for the SAT, ACT, and other standardized exams. Whether your child needs support in one subject or multiple areas, we can find the right tutor for their needs.
Tutoring costs vary based on factors like the subject, tutor expertise, and frequency of sessions. We offer flexible pricing options to fit different budgets and can discuss a plan that works for your family. Contact us for a personalized quote—we're transparent about costs and happy to explain how pricing works.
The first session is an opportunity for your tutor and child to get to know each other and establish what they'll work on together. Your tutor will assess your child's current understanding, identify specific areas for improvement, and discuss goals. This helps create a personalized learning plan that sets the foundation for progress in future sessions.
Many students show noticeable improvement within a few weeks of consistent tutoring, especially in areas where they were struggling. However, the timeline depends on factors like the subject, how often you meet, and your child's starting point. Our expert tutors work to build momentum early while establishing long-term habits that lead to lasting academic success.
We understand that families have busy schedules. Our tutors offer flexible scheduling to fit your family's needs, whether you need sessions after school, in the evenings, on weekends, or during breaks. You can adjust your tutoring schedule as your needs change throughout the school year.
