Jessica

College Algebra Tutor • +51 Subjects

I am a licensed physician from Florida who is currently changing careers. I graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 2009 and have extensive tutoring and editing experience. While a student, I became a certified writing tutor through the Critical Writing Department. Since I completed my writing requirement at the University prior to matriculating, I was the first freshman tutor to be accepted into this selective program. The tutoring program involved a preliminary peer-tutor training course prior to beginning tutoring, in order to certify that I had the appropriate background to provide professional feedback to fellow students on their literary works and projects. After graduation, I worked for a full-service learning center where I created and implemented high school lesson plans for home-schooled students, provided academic support for students ranging in ages from 8 to 20 years old, and taught group and individual standardized testing preparation classes. I have also assisted students with application essays for various undergraduate and graduate programs.

Rhea

AP Statistics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I am a current student at the University of Chicago. I am working towards a Bachelor of Science in Biological Sciences, and I am on the pre-medical track. I am extremely passionate about tutoring, and I have several years of experience tutoring students in my high school's learning center in various subjects as well as tutoring private clients in Standardized Test preparation. Given that I graduated high school recently, I have taken several Standardized Tests and high school subjects myself, so I have a comprehensive understanding of not only how to tutor these subjects and exams, but also what it is like to take them. While I have a wide range of interests and am able to tutor various subjects, I am most passionate about tutoring in Standardized Test preparation (including ACT, SAT, SAT Subject Tests, and AP Exams), Biology, Chemistry, Math, and Spanish. I truly believe that students should have the opportunity to learn in the way that works best for them, and I love being able to help them succeed by creating a comfortable tutoring environment in which we can best assess their particular needs and use strategies specific to them. My passion for learning drives everything that I do, and tutoring is the platform that I use to try to spread that passion to others. In my free time, you can find me playing badminton, listening to music, or baking something (hopefully) delicious.

Jeffrey

Pre-Calculus Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am enrolled in the Mechanical Engineering PhD program at Rice University which will begin Fall 2020, and I am hoping to return to academia as a professor after earning my PhD. In the meantime, I am looking to share my passion for gaining knowledge, specifically in STEM, by educating the up and coming members of such a great field. I have experience tutoring both Calculus and Physics at Notre Dame, as well as experience as a Student Assistant for Differential Equations and Mechanics. I believe the key to learning is much deeper than learning to solve problems and that seeking knowledge is one of the best means for personal improvement.

I am a graduate of the University of Chicago, and I will be starting a graduate program at Columbia in August. I am about to complete a year of service with City Year, an education non-profit that places young adults into under-served schools. As a City Year member, I worked full-time in the classroom with middle-school students who were in approximately the 10th percentile for math (meaning they score lower than 90% of students). One-fourth of those students were able to grow around 15 percentile points by the end of the year! Hobbies: reading, cooking, gardening, music, art, nature, books, writing

AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects

I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!

Frequently Asked Questions

Honors Geometry students often hit a wall with formal proofs—moving from intuitive understanding to rigorous logical arguments requires a fundamentally different mindset. Multi-step proofs involving angle relationships, triangle congruence (SSS, SAS, ASA), and circle theorems trip up many students because they demand both geometric visualization and logical sequencing. Coordinate geometry and analytic proofs also challenge students who haven't internalized the connection between algebraic equations and geometric shapes. Beyond proofs, word problems involving real-world applications of area, volume, and spatial reasoning require students to translate language into geometric models—a skill that doesn't develop automatically.

Expert tutors help students recognize proof patterns and develop a toolkit of strategies rather than treating each proof as a unique puzzle. They teach students to work backwards from the conclusion (what do we need to prove?), identify what given information is relevant, and spot opportunities to use theorems like CPCTC (Corresponding Parts of Congruent Triangles are Congruent) or properties of parallel lines. Through guided practice on similar proof structures, students begin to see that most proofs follow recognizable frameworks—establishing congruence first, then using that congruence to prove other relationships. This approach transforms proofs from intimidating logic problems into systematic problem-solving exercises.

Spatial reasoning—visualizing 3D figures, rotating shapes mentally, and understanding how 2D diagrams represent 3D objects—doesn't come naturally to all learners, yet it's central to Honors Geometry. Some students can solve an equation but can't visualize why a particular angle relationship holds. Tutors address this by using multiple representations: physical models, dynamic geometry software, sketching exercises, and step-by-step visual breakdowns. When a student struggles with a surface area or volume problem, a tutor might have them build the figure, unfold it, or manipulate it digitally to develop intuition before returning to the abstract formula. This multi-sensory approach builds the spatial confidence that's essential for success in Honors Geometry.

In Honors Geometry, "showing your work" means more than writing steps—it means justifying every claim with a theorem, postulate, or given fact. Many students skip steps or assume conclusions without stating why, which costs points on tests and proofs. Tutors teach students to annotate diagrams carefully, label all known information, and build explanations systematically: "Given: [fact]. By [theorem], we can conclude: [result]." They model how to structure multi-step arguments, when to use formal notation versus plain language, and how to catch logical gaps in their own reasoning. Over time, this disciplined approach to explanation becomes automatic, and students develop the mathematical communication skills that Honors Geometry demands.

Coordinate geometry requires students to fluidly switch between visual (plotting points, seeing shapes) and algebraic (using distance and slope formulas) representations—a cognitive leap that many students don't make automatically. Students might know the distance formula but not recognize when to use it, or they might plot points correctly but struggle to prove that a quadrilateral is a parallelogram using slopes and distances. Tutors help by explicitly connecting the algebra to the geometry: showing that equal slopes mean parallel lines, that perpendicular slopes (negative reciprocals) mean right angles, and that equal distances mean congruent sides. With practice on problems that require both calculation and geometric interpretation, students develop fluency in this dual-representation thinking.

Geometry word problems require students to extract spatial information from language, sketch an accurate diagram, and then apply the right theorem or formula—a multi-step process where students often get stuck at the translation stage. A tutor teaches students to identify key information (What shape are we dealing with? What's given? What are we finding?), draw and label a diagram carefully, and then match the problem to a familiar geometric situation. For example, a problem about a ladder leaning against a wall becomes a right triangle problem once the student visualizes it and labels the sides. By working through many word problems with explicit attention to the diagram-building step, students develop the ability to see the geometry hiding in the language, which builds both confidence and accuracy.

Honors Geometry's emphasis on logical reasoning and formal proof can trigger anxiety in students who fear "getting it wrong" or not thinking the "right way." Personalized tutoring creates a low-pressure space where students can ask questions, make mistakes, and see that confusion is part of learning—not a sign of inability. Tutors help students build confidence by breaking complex proofs into manageable steps, celebrating small wins (correctly identifying a congruence, spotting a theorem to apply), and showing students that even expert mathematicians need to sketch, explore, and revise their thinking. As students experience success with targeted practice and see their understanding deepen, anxiety naturally decreases and they approach harder problems with curiosity rather than dread.

An effective Honors Geometry tutor needs deep content knowledge—not just how to do proofs, but why certain approaches work and how different theorems connect to each other. Beyond content, they need strong visualization and spatial reasoning skills to explain 3D concepts clearly and catch where a student's mental picture might be off. They should be skilled at asking guiding questions that help students discover proof strategies rather than handing them the answer, and they need patience with the logical thinking process that Honors Geometry demands. Finally, they should be able to diagnose whether a student's struggle is conceptual (not understanding why a theorem applies), procedural (not knowing how to set up a proof), or notational (confused by formal language)—and adjust their teaching accordingly.
