Tutors are more than expert academics; they are motivational coaches. The greatest obstacle preventing a student from learning is lack of belief in their own abilities. There is no knowledge outside the reach of anyone's understanding.

Courtney
College English Tutor • +13 Subjects
I am currently student teaching full time in a 1st grade classroom at a school. I spent time during the first half of the school year student teaching in a blended 5th and 6th grade classroom. I have worked in child care and education for the past 4 years. I have been an before and after school teacher, a summer camp counselor, a kindergarten program teacher, and an infant teacher at a preschool. I have experience working with children from birth to 8th grade. Because of my experience, I know how to differentiate instruction to accommodate many types of learners. My genuine love of children and learning makes me an ideal tutor. I am enthusiastic about starting my teaching career and I would love to spend the summer helping students and families meet their individual learning goals.
Sherry
ACT Prep Tutor • +21 Subjects
I am a current middle school science teacher. Helping others is something that I love to do and always found myself wanting to explain something to someone that I felt needed help.Prior to becoming a teacher, I was in healthcare administration. I found that as new employees joined my team, I was selected every time to train them. Each employee that I trained later moved on and got promoted.After several years in the field, I realized that the best part of my job was "teaching" others. I later left and became a teacher.I love what I do. In my opinion, it takes a special type of person to be able to teach. Teaching involves the ability to adapt, patience, fluency with words, and empathy. Without these skills, it is difficult to be able to tutor and/or teach others and help them reach a level of understanding.I love be able to watch students reach that "ah-HA" once they have reached clarification and understanding. I look forward to working with you.
Tess
Astronomy Tutor • +13 Subjects
I am a science teacher and informal educator, and I earned my Bachelor's in Geological Sciences at the University of Michigan in May 2014. As a senior in college, I considered graduate school in geology, but I was inspired to bring science into young peoples' lives and I instead completed a rigorous three-semester program in secondary science education. For this program, I worked as a teaching intern in three different secondary science classrooms, and I learned to use the AVID (Advancement Via Individual Determination) tutoring method with small groups of students. In addition to working with middle and high school students, I regularly tutored fellow undergraduates in Geology, Astronomy, and Oceanography classes. I tutor a variety of subjects, including standardized test preparation. I am most passionate about earth science and astronomy, but I find all tutoring work exciting. It is a privilege to work with students and to promote their growth as learners.
Ihlan
Music Tutor • +2 Subjects
I believe that music plays a strong role in the life of all people. Whether you decide to become a professional musician or someone who just enjoys music it can play such a monumental role in everyone's life. Music can connect people of different backgrounds, bring people together, serve as therapy for some, and even become a career for others. I believe in teaching people how to appreciate and understand music from all over the world.

Biostatistics Tutor • +9 Subjects
I received my Bachelor's degree in Wildlife Management from The State University of New York at Cobleskill. Cobleskill is in the upstate region among the Catskill Mountains and has outstanding wildlife and scenery.The courses I teach are Biostatistics, Plant Biology, Environmental Science, Earth Science, General Science, as well as test preparation and study skills. I strive in the Science department and I love teaching these subjects as much as I enjoy learning more skills. I started teaching when I volunteered at an Arboretum that was near my University. I became a member of their Education Committee and have taught outdoor environmental science classes both there and for an additional environmental school. I have also taught Hunter Education courses.Outside of teaching I am involved with Ducks Unlimited and other non-profit organizations. I enjoy practicing clay target shooting at ranges. I spend a great deal of time with my dogs. I love to cook and have large family meals, which makes Thanksgiving my favorite holiday! I have accomplished writing an article for Ducks Unlimited and it is published on their website. I feel accomplishments should be celebrated and I hope to bestow this upon my students.I have an approach to teaching that focuses on "HOW" I am able to present, encourage and get results for "WHAT" my students need. Having used tutoring during my education, I have learned multiple skills and I find what works for me and each individual student.I have access to numerous resources that I will use with my students so I can ensure all of the needs are being met.

Scott
Algebra Tutor • +9 Subjects
I graduated from Cornell where I majored in Latin before beginning my pre-medical post-baccalaureate studies at Columbia. I greatly enjoy helping students of all ages to understand concepts, just as I have at Columbia where I would frequently guide my fellow peers through physics problems. I want to help students feel the "Ah ha!" moment of grasping a concept and breaking complex problems down to simple solutions. As a former swimmer and triathlete, I enjoy keeping physically fit. In my spare time, I enjoy playing guitar as well!

Frequently Asked Questions
Go Math has a specific structure that emphasizes both procedural fluency and conceptual understanding. Tutors experienced with Go Math understand the program's approach to breaking down concepts—from concrete models to pictorial representations to abstract symbols. They know how to reinforce the strategies taught in class, help students understand the "why" behind each step, and bridge gaps when students struggle with the transition from one representation to another.
Word problems require students to translate real-world situations into mathematical operations—a skill that doesn't come naturally to everyone. Go Math emphasizes word problems as a core teaching tool, which means students need more than just computation skills. Tutors help by teaching students how to break problems into steps: identifying what they know, what they need to find, choosing a strategy, and checking if their answer makes sense. With guided practice and feedback, students develop confidence and see word problems as solvable puzzles rather than obstacles.
Go Math requires students to show their thinking, not just their answers. Tutors help students develop this habit by teaching them to annotate their work with labels, drawings, or written explanations that match the Go Math format. This isn't busywork—it helps students catch their own mistakes and makes it easier for teachers to see where confusion is happening. Tutors model clear work organization and ask guiding questions like "How do you know?" and "Can you explain your strategy?" to help students internalize this practice.
Yes. Math anxiety often stems from feeling lost or behind, and personalized tutoring addresses both by giving students a safe space to ask questions without judgment and building skills at their own pace. Tutors help by celebrating small wins, breaking concepts into manageable pieces, and showing students that mistakes are part of learning. When students experience success in tutoring sessions and understand concepts more deeply, their confidence grows—and that confidence carries over into the classroom.
Multi-step equations require students to apply multiple operations in sequence while keeping track of variables and maintaining equation balance. Go Math teaches these systematically, but students often lose the conceptual thread and resort to memorizing steps without understanding why they work. Tutors help by using visual models and step-by-step guided practice, asking students to explain what they're doing at each stage and why it keeps the equation balanced. This approach helps students see the pattern and apply it to different types of equations.
A great Go Math tutor understands the curriculum's philosophy of building both conceptual understanding and procedural fluency. They're skilled at explaining concepts multiple ways—with models, diagrams, real-world examples, and abstract notation—until something clicks. They ask thoughtful questions that help students discover patterns and connections rather than just giving answers. They're also patient with the pace of Go Math, recognizing that deep understanding takes time, and they're committed to helping students develop independence and confidence.
Students typically show improvement in both understanding and performance. You might notice them explaining their thinking more clearly, showing their work more consistently, approaching unfamiliar problems with a strategy rather than panic, and becoming more comfortable with different representations of the same concept (pictures, diagrams, equations, and graphs). Grade improvements often follow, but the real measure is whether students are developing problem-solving skills and confidence they can use not just in Go Math, but in all of mathematics.
