From basic arithmetic through algebra and into trigonometry and calculus, Luke has taught math at nearly every level. He zeroes in on the specific step where a student's understanding breaks down — whether that's setting up word problems, manipulating fractions, or grasping what a variable actually represents — and rebuilds confidence from that exact point.

From basic algebra through pre-calculus and into business math, Frank has privately tutored dozens of students across the full span of secondary and college-level math. He's especially strong at bridging the gap between arithmetic fluency and algebraic thinking, breaking down word problems and multi-step equations into clear, repeatable strategies.
Linguistics graduate work is surprisingly math-adjacent — Benjamin's research involves formal logic, set theory, and statistical modeling of language data, all of which sharpen the kind of structured thinking that drives success in math. He brings that analytical precision to topics like algebraic manipulation and proportional reasoning, walking students through each step until the logic clicks rather than just the procedure.
Whether it's fractions tripping up a middle schooler or order of operations causing confusion, Saad zeroes in on the specific gap holding a student back before layering on new material. His finance background means he's constantly doing mental math and modeling — skills that keep his number sense sharp across every level of math.
Sam's economics training at Vanderbilt kept him immersed in quantitative reasoning — modeling relationships, interpreting graphs, and solving multi-step problems under pressure. He lists Algebra as one of his strongest subjects and approaches math by connecting abstract procedures to the logic behind them, so students understand why they're distributing, factoring, or isolating a variable instead of just following steps mechanically.
Dexter's three undergraduate degrees and economics training mean he's spent serious time with algebra, functions, and applied math across multiple contexts. He breaks down problems by identifying what type of reasoning they require — whether that's setting up equations from word problems, interpreting graphs, or working through multi-step calculations — so students build real problem-solving instincts.
Quick quizzes at the end of each session are Stella's signature move — they reveal whether a student actually internalized a concept like fraction operations or order of operations, or just followed along in the moment. Her teaching spans elementary math through calculus, so she can pinpoint exactly where a gap started and address it at the root.
From arithmetic fundamentals through calculus and competition-level problem solving, Gregg's master's in math gives him the range to teach across the entire K-12 math spectrum. He's especially effective at diagnosing the specific conceptual gap — often buried two grade levels back — that's causing a student's current frustration. That diagnostic instinct, reflected in his 4.9 rating, means sessions target the real problem rather than just tonight's homework.
While math isn't Maureen's primary specialty, her analytical training across multiple graduate programs gives her a structured approach to breaking down problems step by step. She's particularly effective at translating word problems into equations and building the kind of organized problem-solving habits that make algebra and foundational math click.
Psychology research methods gave Joseph a working fluency with statistical reasoning, data interpretation, and the kind of algebraic manipulation that underpins experimental design — so while math isn't his headline subject, he's genuinely comfortable with it. His creative writing side means he's unusually good at re-explaining a concept three different ways until one version lands, especially for students who freeze up when a problem looks unfamiliar.
I am a recent graduate from the University of Pennsylvania. I love working with children and my favorite subject to tutor is Math. I enjoy solving problems and taking my students on a journey to a solution. I have been a tutor for about 10 years and I have worked as both a peer tutor and assistant teacher in various schools. I specialize in providing tutoring in Elementary and Middle School Math, Science, and English. I also provide Malayalam tutoring.
Mimi approaches math through an inquiry-based lens shaped by her Harvard Ed.M., asking students to reason through problems rather than memorize procedures. Whether the topic is fractions, proportional reasoning, or early algebra concepts, she designs each session around the specific gaps a student brings in. Her creative, learner-centered style is especially effective for students who've decided they're 'not math people.'
From arithmetic through calculus and into graduate-level statistics, Nina has taught math at nearly every level as both a Columbia TA and a private tutor. She's especially effective at pinpointing the exact conceptual gap — whether it's fraction operations, proportional reasoning, or function notation — that's creating downstream confusion, then rebuilding understanding from that specific point.
Plenty of students decide early that they're "not math people" — Reid specializes in dismantling that belief. His approach connects abstract procedures to concrete reasoning, whether that means visualizing fractions on a number line or tracing why order of operations works the way it does, so that confidence builds alongside competence.
Years of teaching middle school math at a Boston charter school gave Liz a toolbox of ways to break down fractions, ratios, proportions, and early algebraic thinking so they actually click. She's especially skilled at identifying where a student's understanding breaks down and rebuilding from that exact point — a strength sharpened by her special education training. Rated 4.7 by students and families.
Solange approaches math as a subject that rewards structured thinking over speed, breaking problems into logical steps students can follow and eventually internalize. Her 34 ACT composite reflects sharp quantitative reasoning, and she applies that same methodical approach to arithmetic, pre-algebra, and foundational concepts that younger or struggling students need to build confidence.
Few tutors can teach pre-algebra and multivariable calculus with equal clarity, but Justin's math background runs from a double bachelor's in physics and mathematics through a PhD in Computational Mathematics at the University of Chicago. He pinpoints exactly where a concept breaks down for a student — whether that's fraction operations, quadratic factoring, or function transformations — and rebuilds understanding from that specific gap.
From basic operations through pre-algebra and into calculus, Daniel covers a wide math range and adjusts his explanations to wherever a student currently stands. He emphasizes translating word problems into equations — a skill that trips up students at every level — because once that click happens, the mechanics become far less intimidating.
From algebra through calculus, James has spent years teaching college and high school students to see math as a connected set of ideas rather than isolated procedures. His chemistry background means he constantly ties abstract concepts — like derivatives or systems of equations — back to tangible problems where the math actually does something. That context tends to make tricky topics click faster.
Some students need to see a concept drawn out visually; others need to work backward from the answer to understand the steps. Sabira's applied mathematics degree at Johns Hopkins trained her to approach problems from multiple angles, whether that means arithmetic fundamentals, fraction operations, or early algebraic thinking. She adapts her explanations on the fly until the reasoning genuinely clicks.
From fraction operations in middle school to derivatives in calculus, Sherry covers a wide math range and zeroes in on the conceptual gaps that cause recurring mistakes. Her psychology training at UChicago also means she's attuned to math anxiety — she knows how to rebuild a student's confidence around word problems or multi-step equations without glossing over the rigor.
A triple Bachelor of Science holder, Sung has spent years working through math at every level — from proportional reasoning and equation-solving in middle school to the limit definitions and derivative rules of calculus. He breaks problems into smaller logical steps so students can see the reasoning behind each move, not just follow a memorized procedure.
Sash's 1560 SAT required serious math performance under pressure, and her Comparative Literature training — constantly analyzing structures, patterns, and logical progressions across texts — gives her an unexpected but effective lens for tackling math problems that demand careful, sequential reasoning. She's especially useful for students who freeze up on word-heavy questions, since parsing dense language and extracting what actually matters is literally what her degree trained her to do.
Jennifer's tutoring background spans algebra through calculus, but her real strength in math is translating word-heavy problems into clear steps — a natural extension of her language arts training. She's especially effective with students who understand concepts in class but freeze when facing unfamiliar problem formats on their own.
Pursuing a certificate in Statistics and Machine Learning alongside her philosophy degree at Princeton, Julie brings both computational rigor and clear logical thinking to math at every level. She breaks down problems — whether it's fraction operations or function analysis — into reasoning steps students can follow and replicate on their own. Rated 4.9 by students.
From basic arithmetic through trigonometry and calculus, Matthew covers the full math pipeline and considers it his specialty. His teaching method is deliberate: he demonstrates a concept step by step, then puts students in the driver's seat with progressively harder problems, asking targeted questions along the way to make sure understanding — not just memorization — is happening.
Maya's ACT score of 34 included the math section, and her tutoring range spans algebra through calculus — but her real edge is that she came to math through writing and the humanities, which means she knows exactly how to translate abstract procedures into plain language for students who don't think of themselves as "math people." She's spent over seven years working across age groups, so she's quick to spot whether a student's struggle is conceptual or just notational confusion. Rated 5.0 by clients.
A chemistry degree from Yale means Zosia has lived inside calculus, algebra, and applied math problems far beyond the textbook — calculating reaction rates, modeling physical systems, and working with logarithmic relationships daily. She connects abstract math concepts to tangible applications so that topics like functions, proportional reasoning, and equation-solving feel purposeful rather than arbitrary. Students who need both procedural fluency and conceptual understanding get both.
Meghan's 1520 SAT score reflects strong quantitative reasoning, and she applies that same structured, step-by-step thinking when walking students through math concepts like fractions, ratios, and word problems. Her journalism background means she's especially good at translating abstract math language into plain English that clicks.
From pre-algebra fundamentals through calculus and linear algebra, Jai's engineering background means he's used every branch of math students typically encounter — and used it under pressure. He's especially sharp at showing why a technique works, not just demonstrating the steps, so that students can adapt when a problem looks slightly different from the textbook example. Rated on both his 1590 SAT and 35 ACT, his quantitative instincts run deep.
A Cornell biology graduate, Josef regularly applies quantitative reasoning to scientific problems — from calculating reaction rates to modeling population dynamics — which keeps his math sharp and grounded in real applications. He breaks down concepts like proportional reasoning, unit conversions, and algebraic manipulation by tying them to tangible scenarios students can visualize. Rated 5.0 by students.
A year as a course assistant in Harvard's math department gave Richard front-row experience watching where students get stuck — whether it's fraction operations in middle school or limit definitions in calculus. He earned a 1600 SAT and 36 ACT, and his approach to math emphasizes understanding the reasoning behind each step so that new problem types don't feel like starting from scratch.
Vivian's 36 ACT composite and 1530 SAT required mastery across every math domain tested — from algebraic manipulation and coordinate geometry to probability and data interpretation. She teaches the underlying logic of each problem type so students can adapt when a question looks unfamiliar, not just when it matches a formula they've memorized. Rated 4.9 by students.
Garrett's triple-major undergraduate path — including biology — meant he couldn't avoid math even if he wanted to: calculus, statistical analysis, and quantitative reasoning threaded through every science course he took. That constant application gives him a practical fluency with concepts like derivatives, data interpretation, and algebraic manipulation that he can translate into clear, step-by-step explanations. His 1530 SAT confirms the fundamentals are rock-solid.
Scoring a 34 ACT composite means Noah has the quantitative chops to cover everything from fraction operations and proportional reasoning up through algebraic problem-solving. He zeroes in on where a student's understanding breaks down — whether that's setting up word problems or working with negative numbers — and rebuilds confidence from that exact point.
Not every math tutor needs to be a math major — sometimes a well-rounded thinker who scored 1540 on the SAT brings a clearer way of explaining concepts to students who feel stuck. Ayako covers everything from fraction operations and proportional reasoning up through basic algebra and geometry, translating abstract procedures into language that actually makes sense.
Big-picture thinking is Matthew's signature: before drilling a procedure, he shows students why a technique works and where it connects to concepts they already know. His Stanford bioinformatics training required fluency across algebra, calculus, and statistics, so he can meet a math problem from multiple angles. That holistic approach, rated 4.9 by students, is especially useful for visual and conceptual learners.
Linguistics trains you to see hidden structure — phonological rules, syntactic trees, morphological patterns — and Nicholas applies that same structural thinking to math, where recognizing the underlying pattern in a problem matters more than memorizing individual procedures. His 1570 SAT and 33 ACT confirm he's sharp with quantitative reasoning, and his 5.0 rating suggests he's just as sharp at making that reasoning click for someone else.
Philosophy trained Moon to follow an argument wherever it leads — spotting hidden assumptions, testing each logical step — which is exactly what solving a multi-step algebra or calculus problem demands. That 1560 SAT wasn't built on memorized formulas but on the kind of structured reasoning his philosophy background sharpened, and he applies that same clarity when unpacking why a solution method works. Rated 5.0 by students.
Vansh covers math from elementary arithmetic through calculus, but what sets his approach apart is how he links each new concept to something a student already knows. Fractions become a gateway to ratios; ratios open the door to proportional reasoning and eventually algebra. That thread of continuity keeps students from feeling like every chapter is starting from scratch.
