Grishma
Middle School Math Tutor • +69 Subjects
I'm passionate about helping students because I've seen how meaningful support can turn uncertainty into confidence. Having excelled academically myselfI graduated in the top 1% of my high school class and completed a rigorous AP curriculum in subjects like Chemistry, Biology, Physics, Calculus BC, English, Economics, and SpanishI know how transformative good teaching can be. I later earned my undergraduate degree from Northwestern University, where I studied Neuroscience, Anthropology, and Global Health. Those disciplines deepened my appreciation for how people learn, think, and connect across different perspectives. Throughout college and medical school, I've tutored students of varying ages and backgrounds in subjects including biology, chemistry, math, and writing, as well as standardized test preparation. My favorite subjects to tutor are biology and writingbiology because it helps students see the logic and beauty behind how living systems work, and writing because it empowers them to express complex ideas with clarity and confidence. My teaching philosophy centers on patience, adaptability, and curiosity. I approach each session as a collaboration, tailoring lessons to each student's needs and helping them build problem-solving skills rather than rely on rote memorization. Outside of academics, I'm passionate about photography and travelboth of which keep me creative, observant, and open-minded, qualities I bring into every tutoring interaction.

Frequently Asked Questions
Grade 10 students often find quadratic equations and their multiple solution methods (factoring, completing the square, quadratic formula) particularly challenging, especially when deciding which approach fits the problem best. Word problems involving systems of equations trip up many students because they require translating real-world scenarios into mathematical language, then solving two equations simultaneously. Graphing and understanding how transformations affect parabolas and other functions—shifts, stretches, reflections—is another common sticking point, as is recognizing patterns between an equation's form and its graph. Geometry proofs also challenge students who haven't yet internalized the logical reasoning required to justify each step.
Grade 10 is where math shifts from "follow the steps" to "understand the reasoning," and tutors help bridge that gap by asking students to explain their thinking rather than just checking if the final answer is correct. For example, when solving a quadratic equation, a tutor might ask "Why does factoring work here but not there?" or "What does the discriminant actually tell us about the solutions?" This approach helps students see that algebra isn't arbitrary rules—it's a logical system where each operation has a purpose. Personalized tutoring also reveals gaps in foundational skills (like fraction manipulation or exponent rules) that are blocking conceptual understanding, so tutors can address root causes rather than surface-level mistakes.
Word problems require students to translate English into equations, which is a skill many Grade 10 students haven't explicitly practiced. Tutors teach a structured approach: identify what you're solving for, define variables clearly, extract the mathematical relationships from the text, and then solve. For instance, in a problem about two trains leaving a station at different speeds, a tutor helps students recognize it's a distance-rate-time scenario and set up equations like distance = rate × time for each train. Breaking the problem into smaller chunks and asking "What does this sentence tell us mathematically?" makes the process less overwhelming. Over time, students start recognizing problem types and patterns, building confidence and independence.
Showing work isn't just about partial credit—it helps teachers (and tutors) see where thinking breaks down and it trains students to organize their reasoning logically, which becomes essential for proofs and higher math. A tutor models clear, step-by-step solutions and explains why each step matters, then gradually expects students to do the same. This builds habits like defining variables before using them, writing out the quadratic formula before substituting values, or stating which property justifies each step in an equation. When students practice articulating their reasoning out loud or on paper, they catch their own errors and develop the mathematical communication skills that are increasingly important as courses get harder.
Many Grade 10 students memorize that y = (x – 3)² shifts right 3 units but don't understand why, which makes them helpless when faced with unfamiliar functions or combined transformations. A tutor builds understanding by starting with concrete examples: pick a few points on y = x², then substitute (x – 3) and plot the new points to see the shift visually. Once students see that the transformation happens because the input is delayed, they grasp why y = 2(x + 1)² – 5 involves a left shift, vertical stretch, and downward shift. Graphing technology can reinforce this by letting students experiment with coefficients and see changes in real time, turning abstract rules into observable patterns.
Geometry proofs feel abstract and rigid to many Grade 10 students because they haven't yet internalized that a proof is just a logical argument, not a mysterious ritual. Tutors start by having students explain why something is true in everyday language—"Why is this angle equal to that one?"—then gradually formalize the reasoning using definitions and theorems. Beginning with simple, highly guided proofs (like "Prove these triangles are congruent using SSS") builds confidence before tackling multi-step proofs. A tutor also emphasizes that being stuck is normal and teaches problem-solving strategies like working backward from what you want to prove or drawing auxiliary lines to reveal hidden relationships. This reframes proofs as puzzles to solve rather than hoops to jump through.
Math anxiety often stems from past struggles, gaps in foundational skills, or the pressure of increasingly abstract concepts, and personalized tutoring addresses all three by working at the student's pace without judgment. A tutor identifies exactly where confidence breaks down—maybe it's negative numbers, factoring, or the transition to abstract variables—and rebuilds skills step by step with immediate, encouraging feedback. The 1-on-1 setting also removes the pressure of classroom pace and peer comparison, giving students space to ask "dumb questions" and make mistakes safely. As students experience success on progressively harder problems, they realize they're capable, which shifts their mindset from "I can't do math" to "I haven't learned this yet."
An effective Grade 10 Math tutor needs strong command of the full curriculum—quadratics, systems, functions, geometry, and trigonometry—but equally important is the ability to diagnose why a student is stuck and explain concepts multiple ways. Look for tutors who ask questions to understand student thinking rather than just correcting answers, who can connect Grade 10 topics to both foundational skills (like exponent rules) and future courses (like precalculus), and who are patient with the frustration that comes with this transition year. Experience working with students at different levels—from those catching up to advanced learners—is valuable because Grade 10 Math varies widely in rigor and pacing depending on the school and program.
