Philosophy trains you to take a dense, intimidating argument and pull it apart until every step is justified — which is exactly what early calculus demands when students hit limits, continuity proofs, or the formal definition of a derivative. Galen's philosophy degree and 34 ACT composite show he can pair that logical rigor with genuine quantitative ability, even though math isn't his primary field. His approach treats each calculus rule as a claim that needs to be understood and defended, not just applied.

Between a 1490 SAT and coursework spanning quantitative reasoning and science, Michelle has genuine comfort with the math that underpins calculus — though her degrees are in the arts and history, not mathematics. She's strongest at the early conceptual territory: unpacking what a derivative actually represents as a rate of change, or why the area-under-a-curve idea behind integration makes intuitive sense, before the heavy computation kicks in. Rated 5.0 by students.

I am here because I thoroughly enjoy working with students and watching them succeed in their academic studies. As a Mathematics major at the University of Arizona (currently a junior), I have extensive experience teaching and tutoring: I have been a teacher's assistant for a Calculus II section at my university and have spent a great deal of time assisting students with non-math related subjects as well such as English and essay-writing, time management and study skills techniques, and standardized test prep (SAT).

Studying biology and ecology at Stanford meant Rebia had to internalize calculus as the language of living systems — population growth models, predator-prey dynamics, and the rate equations that describe how ecosystems shift over time. That background lets her teach derivatives and integrals as tools with tangible meaning, connecting each rule to a real process rather than leaving it as an abstract procedure.

Teaching both algebra and pre-calculus means Kristi has walked the full path that leads into calculus — she knows exactly where the gaps in function behavior, slope intuition, and limit reasoning tend to trip students up. Her 1460 SAT confirms strong quantitative chops, and her approach leans on building each new calculus idea directly from the algebra and pre-calc skills a student already has. Rated 5.0 by students.

Limits, derivatives, and integrals all clicked for Alina during her civil engineering coursework at the University of Arizona, where calculus wasn't theoretical — it was how she analyzed load distributions and rates of change in physical systems. She unpacks each concept by tying the math to something tangible, which is especially useful for students who struggle with the abstraction of epsilon-delta definitions or integration techniques.

I have been a tutor for over five years. I enjoy helping others to learn the subjects that I believe I am proficient enough to teach. I offer tutoring in calculus, physics, and computer science. While I aim to help my students understand a concept, the motivation to improve and learn must come from them. I will do my best to inspire such a mentality.

I am a graduate of the University of Florida's PhD program in the Microbiology and Cell Science Department. Since graduation, I have worked for a startup company studying neurodegenerative biomarker uptake by immune cells in the peripheral blood during neuroinflammation. While I tutor a variety of subjects, my main passions lie in biology, microbiology, and chemistry. I believe it is important for students to not only learn the subject material but also to discover how they learn in general and how they can learn to take assessment tests efficiently.

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.

I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.

I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.

I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
