I am a graduate of the University of Florida as well as the University of Washington, where I earned my Bachelors and Masters degree in Applied Mathematics, respectively. Since graduating, I have worked in different I.T. capacities such as Quality assurance and programming, but I have always made time to tutor students in math. Helping others to do math is one of my passions because I know how good it feels to go from "what is this math?" to "this actually makes sense!". Although I tutor all math courses ranging from 7th grade level through undergraduate level, algebra has to be my favorite math to tutor because I see it as the starting point of mathematics; it's the course where students are introduced to conceptual math. Getting a solid foundation in algebra affects all future math courses as well as science courses. Outside of tutoring, I like to work out, play blitz chess, and watch basketball and football.

I have tutored and/or taught mathematics since 2009. I have received graduate degrees in mathematics from Clark Atlanta University and the University of Florida. I am very patient with my students and strive to develop their skills, strategies and critical thinking.
Hello! My name is Neha, and I'm a data scientist currently in my gap year before starting medical school this coming summer. I earned both my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science with a focus in Intelligence and Modeling & Simulation and my Master of Science in Bioinformatics from the Georgia Institute of Technology. I'm passionate about helping students of all ages break down challenging topics and develop effective study strategies. I specialize in tutoring college and high school level Biology, Chemistry, and Computer Science, drawing on both my technical and scientific background to make complex material approachable and engaging. My teaching philosophy centers on creating a supportive, interactive environment where students feel confident asking questions and exploring ideas. I adapt my approach to each student's unique learning style and interests, with the goal of building understanding, confidence, and long-term curiosity. Watching my students grow and succeed academically is the most rewarding part of what I do.
Intensely curious, I am interested in STEM subjects and the liberal arts. I tutor to help you reach your educational goals and because it's immensely gratifying to see my students succeed.
Northwestern's engineering curriculum threw Katherine into differential equations and systems modeling early, which means she built her fluency with polynomial, trigonometric, and exponential functions under real problem-solving pressure — not just in a precalculus classroom. She uses that background to teach AP Pre-Calculus with an emphasis on function composition and rate-of-change reasoning, walking students through how to interpret what a model is doing before worrying about computing an answer. Her engineering instinct for breaking complex problems into sequential, manageable steps translates directly to the multi-part analysis questions the AP exam favors.
When I was in high school, I remember seeing the joy of my math teachers when they would teach in class. This inspired me to become a high school math teacher. The first step was becoming a peer tutor to my classmates. This lead to tutoring math to college students. Then tutoring students while working as a TA. Then I worked as a data scientist which not only did I understand more how to apply math in the workspace, but also learned how to explain math concepts to coworkers without a strong math background. This helped me to shape my tutoring philosophy to relate to the person being tutored and this opened the door to me teaching high school calculus 1 & calculus 2! I am currently teaching precalculus at a community college.
I love to teach. I love young minds and fresh brains. Those are just like clean sheets of papers I can draw anything I like. I really like to help young people to achieve their full capacities with my long experience of teaching. I am very patient and good at explaining complex concepts in simple terms. I am looking forward to meeting students who need my help.
Hi! I'm Kavya, and I'm passionate about helping students build confidence and succeed in school. I tailor each lesson to a student's learning style, making concepts clear, engaging, and easy to understand. I specialize in math, from elementary concepts to algebra, geometry, trigonometry, statistics, calculus, and college-level courses, focusing on true understanding rather than memorization. I also tutor English, reading, writing, grammar, homework support, study skills, organization, and test preparation. My sessions are patient, supportive, and interactive, creating a comfortable environment where students feel confident asking questions. Whether a student needs extra help, wants to improve grades, or wants to get ahead, I provide personalized lessons that build strong academic skills, confidence, and a lifelong love of learning.
Having earned a BS in Biology with High Honors from New Mexico State, Kayley knows the math-science pipeline firsthand — AP Pre-Calculus concepts like exponential growth models and trigonometric cycles showed up constantly in her genetics and ecology coursework. She leans into that cross-disciplinary angle, using real biological scenarios to make abstract function behavior feel concrete. Her approach zeroes in on building the graphical intuition the AP framework rewards, especially around transformations and end behavior.
I love math, and have a passion for sharing that love and knowledge. Progressing through courses of mathematics teaches much beyond what is on the page. It teaches problem-solving, critical and creative thinking. I try not only to teach the mechanics of math, but instill an appreciation for the skills the process can develop. And while math is my favorite subject to tutor, I have had training in and am qualified for all sections of SAT and ACT test prep, and enjoy working with students to help them learn and meet their college goals.
As a passionate tutor with a Master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Ottawa, I have over 2 years of experience in teaching Python. My approach focuses on fostering a supportive learning environment where students feel empowered to explore concepts and ask questions. I believe in tailoring my teaching methods to meet each student's unique learning style, ensuring they grasp the material thoroughly. I am motivated by the joy of seeing my students achieve their goals and develop a love for programming. In my free time, I enjoy exploring new technologies and engaging in coding challenges, which further enrich my tutoring sessions.
AP Pre-Calculus covers function analysis, trigonometry, and modeling at a pace that can overwhelm students who've only seen these topics casually. Joey's scientific computing work at Penn demanded fluency with polynomial behavior, transformations, and rate-of-change reasoning — exactly the skills this course tests. He teaches each unit by tying abstract function properties back to problems students can visualize.
Being a math and physics major at MIT means Bereket doesn't just know the polynomial, trigonometric, and exponential models in AP Pre-Calculus — he uses them as building blocks in courses that assume total fluency. He teaches the course by slowing down at the exact moments where students lose the thread, particularly when function composition and transformations shift from mechanical steps to questions about behavior and interpretation. That patience with conceptual understanding over formula memorization is what makes his approach click for students preparing for the AP exam.
Hi, I'm Sebastian! I'm a student-athlete at Trinity College studying Mechanical Engineering, and I am passionate about helping students find their stride in the classroom. My experience leading youth soccer clinics and mentoring younger teammates taught me that every individual learns differently. I focus on creating an encouraging, structured environment where students feel comfortable asking questions. From math and sciences to study skills, I'm dedicated to providing the guidance and support
The moment AP Pre-Calculus shifts from 'solve this equation' to 'describe what this function is doing and why,' a lot of students lose their footing — and that's exactly the transition Sharif is built to coach. His deep calculus background (he teaches through AP Calculus BC) means he can trace every pre-calculus concept forward, showing students how mastering function behavior now pays off in the next course. He approaches each session by working backward from the reasoning the AP exam actually tests, not just the computations.
