Max

Calculus 3 Tutor • +14 Subjects

I am currently an Undergraduate Freshman at Washington University in St. Louis (WashU) studying Biomedical Engineering on a Pre-Medical track. I tutor mostly math-related subjects, such as Calculus and Linear Algebra. I push hard in my personal work to gain a strong, conceptual backing for almost all subjects, and am able to help others efficiently with this. Understanding material conceptually, rather than analytically, is vital to being able to think and apply knowledge. This is my learning and teaching philosophy. I am patient and thorough; I am caring and understanding. I look forward to our first session! Hobbies: reading, writing, art, books, music

Alex

Elementary Math Tutor • +26 Subjects

I am a public school reading teacher in the elementary grades. I have a passion for educating young people and guiding them to academic success, either in or outside of the classroom. I have experience as a classroom teacher and a private tutor, in subjects that range from Reading and Writing to History and French. In my opinion, the path to obtaining a good education is formed by hard work, diligence, persistence, and an open mind. I work on a daily basis to instill these qualities in my students and tutees. I also believe that forming meaningful relationships with my students creates an environment in which learning is the goal. In my spare time, I enjoy running, golf, reading, cooking, and spending time with family and friends.

Lee

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +73 Subjects

I am a graduate of the University of Maryland, with degrees in physics, astronomy, and studio art. During my time at university I was a member of the Physic Education Research group, conducting studies into the best methods of math and physics pedagogy. Although I am most accomplished in physical science education, my methods are applicable to all kinds of science. I have also studied history and literature extensively as a matter of personal passion. My goals as a tutor reach beyond simply grasping the material at the level which it is presented--I aim to give students the intellectual and emotional tools to grasp underlying principles of any field, and the confidence to believe that this is something they can achieve under their own power. In my spare time, I write fiction and paint, and I love the outdoors. Hobbies: art, travel, outdoors, books, writing, reading, music, painting

Juan

Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects

I am a post-baccalaureate student at the University of Pennsylvania. Because I see myself primarily as a philologist, I am studying in order to enter a Ph.D program. I believe that language is one of the primary factors in shaping how we, as individuals, think and present our ideas to the world. I am also a proponent of teaching Classical languages such as Latin and Ancient Greek to students in high school because these languages require the development of analytic capabilities which are sometimes lacking in other more memory-oriented subjects. Furthermore, my education in the Classics does not only focus on linguistics but also on history, mythology, and culture. I studied abroad in Rome for five months in the Spring semester of 2011 through the Intercollegiate Center for Classical Studies. During my time in Rome, I learned Italian, got to see landmarks of antiquity such as the Roman Forum, Pompeii, Herculaneum, Syracuse, Baiae, and see Medieval Italy through the artworks of Michelangelo and Bernini. Consequentially, I have a strong grasp of historical occurrences in Europe from antiquity to contemporary society. As a tutor, I intend to give a holistic and comprehensive approach to learning new subjects. Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, books

Mark

Geometry Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am a passionate problem-solver but patient and flexible with my teaching pace. In terms of tutoring style, I like to prepare a comprehensive review of the topics students are struggling with. I also like to bring in outside resources and review questions that mirror the material so students have more practice to fully master the material.

Michael

Calculus Tutor • +23 Subjects

I am a junior at Columbia University double majoring in Financial Engineering and Computer Science. Since high school, I have extensively tutored French students for standardized testing (SAT/ACT). This helped me bridge the obvious language gap whilst breaking down the tests into their fundamentals to better grasp the strategy behind them. I firmly believe in learning-by-doing which is why I encourage all my students to try first before revising their methods and understanding of the subjects. I am fluent in French, Arabic, Hebrew, and English which I believe helps me communicate the very essence of the subject as opposed to a numbered list of tasks which might not help all types of students. In my spare time, I enjoy catching up on the Financial Times, trying my hand at new languages and designing clothing. Hobbies: reading, music, writing, art, books

Nicholas

Pre-Algebra Tutor • +76 Subjects

I am originally from Charlotte, North Carolina, but have traveled and lived all across the country. I am currently pursuing a degree in molecular biology and biochemistry and am currently an intern with NASA! I am a passionate tutor with a love for teaching and experience in a wide variety of subjects, K-12, collegiate, and at the standard, honors, advanced, and AP levels. I am particularly excited to help out in SAT/ACT standardized testing and college admissions help, which I have some specialized experience with. I have worked as a tutor with contracted companies and freelance for many years, and have loved the experience I've been lucky to share with students and their families. Kindness first is my most important value! I consider myself rather flexible and would love to help create a plan that works best for you and your family! Outside of tutoring, I am also an avid outdoors person and sports lover. I can't wait to meet you and get started soon!

Frequently Asked Questions

Getting started is simple—just tell us about your student's needs, grade level, and subjects, and we'll match them with a tutor who fits their learning style. Most students have their first session within a few days, and you can choose a schedule that works for your family's routine in Wheaton. The initial consultation is a great opportunity to discuss goals, whether that's improving grades, preparing for standardized tests, or building confidence in a specific subject.

Tutors work with students on the specific skills and content outlined in Maryland's College and Career Readiness Standards, ensuring they're building competencies that align with what their schools expect. Whether it's mastering math concepts before state assessments, strengthening writing skills for English Language Arts standards, or preparing for Maryland-specific testing benchmarks, personalized 1-on-1 instruction helps students close gaps and progress at their own pace. Tutors are familiar with how Wheaton schools structure their curricula and can reinforce what students are learning in the classroom.

While every student is different, we work with many Wheaton students in math (especially algebra and geometry), English Language Arts, science, and test prep for the SAT and ACT. We also support students in foreign languages like Spanish and French, which are commonly offered in Wheaton schools, as well as AP and honors-level courses. If your student is struggling with a specific subject or needs enrichment, we can connect them with a tutor who specializes in that area.

The first session is focused on getting to know your student—their strengths, challenges, learning style, and specific goals. The tutor will assess where your student stands in their subject, discuss what's working and what isn't in their current approach, and create a personalized plan moving forward. This is also a chance for your student to ask questions and get comfortable with their tutor, so they can build the trust needed for effective learning.

Tutors are vetted experts in their subjects—many hold degrees in their fields, have teaching experience, or bring specialized knowledge from professional backgrounds. We ensure they understand how to teach effectively to different learning styles and age groups, and they stay current with educational standards relevant to Maryland schools. Each tutor is selected based on their ability to connect with students and deliver results, not just subject knowledge alone.

We work with families on pricing and offer flexible session lengths and frequencies to fit different budgets and schedules. Whether your student needs intensive support leading up to an exam or ongoing reinforcement throughout the school year, we can customize a plan that makes sense for your family. We're transparent about costs upfront, and there are no long-term contracts required.

Many students show noticeable improvement in confidence and understanding within the first few weeks of consistent tutoring, though the timeline depends on the student's starting point and goals. For students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT or ACT, we typically recommend 8-12 weeks of regular sessions to see meaningful score gains. For ongoing academic support, improvement is often visible in grades and classroom participation within 4-6 weeks as students build stronger foundational skills.

Absolutely—we encourage communication between tutors and teachers to ensure tutoring reinforces what's happening in the classroom. You can share information about your student's school curriculum, upcoming assignments, or specific areas their teacher has flagged, and tutors will tailor sessions accordingly. This collaborative approach helps your student get consistent support and makes tutoring more effective for meeting school-based goals.
