Most algebra frustration comes from one place: students learn procedures without understanding what variables and equations actually represent. Tim reverses that by starting with the logic behind each operation — why you can add the same thing to both sides, what a solution set really means — so tha...

The jump from plugging in numbers to manipulating variables is where most algebra frustration starts. Yasmeen tackles that transition head-on, teaching students to read equations as relationships — so solving a system or factoring a quadratic becomes a logical process, not a guessing game.

I am passionate about helping students because I've been a student my whole life! Even though I'm a professor now, I love to learn. And now that I have experience, I love to help others along the learning journey. I have degrees in English and education from Rice University, UT Austin, Texas State, ...

Most Algebra struggles come down to one thing: students learn procedures without understanding the logic underneath. Brian digs into the reasoning behind solving equations and manipulating expressions, so that when a problem looks slightly different from the homework, students aren't stuck. His math...

Too many students leave Algebra feeling like they memorized steps without understanding why any of it works — and that uncertainty follows them into every math class after. Justin's entire degree in Secondary Math Education was built around learning how to teach algebraic concepts like solving equat...

Factoring, solving systems of equations, graphing linear and quadratic functions — algebra asks students to think abstractly for the first time, and that's exactly where many of them stall. Molly tackles each concept by connecting it to concrete examples, drawing on both her Cornell Education minor ...

I'm trying to work on personal projects. I really enjoy snowboarding, and have been doing that since the third grade. I also enjoy playing sports and video games.

Word problems are where most algebra students freeze — translating sentences into equations feels like learning a second language. Adriana's applied mathematics training means she teaches students to spot the underlying structure in a problem first, then build the equation around it. Her 4.9 rating ...

I'm available to tutor biology, chemistry, physics, math from Algebra up through AP Calculus, SAT test prep, and French. I've been tutoring students in science and math for 7 years. I also spent 8 months working and studying in France, and have tutored high school and adult students in French. When ...

I'm a recent Stanford graduate (Electrical Engineering and Computer Science), and have been working at a major Management Consulting firm for a few years now. I personally scored a 2360 (out of 2400) on the SAT and 35 on the ACT and was successful in gaining admission to several top universities. I'...
