Hi y'all! I hold my Master of Science in Psychology of Sport and my Bachelor of Science in both Psychology and Applied Human and Sport Physiology. I have many years of tutoring under my belt, working with people of all levels from elementary school through college in hard science subjects (Biology, Chemistry, and Mathematics), a few social sciences (History, Psychology, Economics), and language arts. When not tutoring, I love playing soccer and I even coach a youth team. I love encouraging students to learn, grow, and think critically for themselves.

I am qualified to tutor many subjects, my favorite subject by far is math, specifically calculus. Math is a subject almost universally hated, and I believe that is mainly due to the narrow way in which it is taught. I have ADHD, and I often don't understand things the first time they are explained to me, meaning over the years I have had to figure out different ways of looking at information. Oftentimes, all a student needs is for something to be explained in a different way, and I love watching people finally understand a concept. Everyone learns differently, but everyone can learn.

Most college algebra students don't struggle because the math is impossibly hard — they struggle because nobody slows down to explain *why* you're factoring that polynomial or what a logarithm actually means before racing through procedures. Adam's English and Creative Writing background makes him unusually good at putting algebraic concepts into words that click, turning notation-heavy topics like function transformations and rational equations into something a student can narrate their way through. His 32 ACT and 5.0 rating back up the approach.

Salman's graduate work in pathology and laboratory medicine meant constant quantitative problem-solving — dilution calculations, exponential growth curves for bacterial cultures, and logarithmic transformations of assay data — all rooted in the same algebraic mechanics that college algebra courses test.

Studying Human Biology at Stanford with a concentration in game theory, Jake regularly works through the algebraic modeling that underpins strategic decision frameworks — optimizing functions, solving systems, and interpreting variable relationships in formal models. That active, applied use of algebra means he can walk through topics like rational expressions or exponential equations with the fluency of someone who relies on them, not someone recalling them from a past course. Rated 5.0 by students.

Rational expressions, logarithmic equations, and systems of inequalities can feel disconnected in a college algebra course unless someone ties them together. Mackenzie's economics training at Northwestern means she's used these tools to model real problems — demand curves, optimization, financial projections — and she brings that applied perspective into every session.

The jump to college algebra trips up students who never fully internalized why function transformations, rational expressions, or logarithmic rules work the way they do. Carter tackles these gaps head-on, drawing on the rigorous math training he got through his Brown economics program. He holds a 5.0 client rating.

Tutoring Algebra I and II in under-resourced schools taught Vy something most tutors learn the hard way: the students who struggle with college algebra topics like logarithmic equations or rational expressions usually aren't missing ability — they're missing one or two conceptual links that nobody bothered to trace back. Her cognitive studies program at Vanderbilt gives her a framework for diagnosing exactly where those gaps live and rebuilding from there. A 35 ACT and 5.0 student rating back up the approach.

As a teaching assistant for Calculus I and II at Rice, Sakibul regularly sees what happens when college algebra concepts like logarithmic properties or rational expressions weren't fully internalized the first time around — so he knows exactly which gaps to target. His graduate work in computational and applied mathematics means he can unpack why algebraic techniques are structured the way they are, giving students tools to reason through unfamiliar problems instead of relying on memorized steps.

My academic credentials include a Bachelor of Mathematics degree from the University of Texas at Arlington and a Master of Aeronautical Engineering from Stanford University. I am retired from 40+ years of engineering. The last thirty years was working in the flight simulation industry. I had responsibility for doing mathematical modeling of many systems which kept my my math and science skills well exercised. The flight simulation experience also involved frequent use of computer languages such as Ada, C, C++ and less frequent use of other computer languages such as python and java. Tutoring was part of the engineering environment as new engineers were assigned to my group. I earned extra money during my college years tutoring. Though money is not the end objective since retirement, I enjoy tutoring to remain active and challenged. The interaction with students is invigorating. Tutoring gives me a sense of contributing to the well-being of others. It is offering up my skills to help others get a strong start on a career. My tutoring style is to explain principles and possibly do a sample problem, but then observe the student apply the principles to work a problem, gently nudging them in the right direction. I prefer to tutor math and physics, but will not shy away from computer languages and other science applications.

Two engineering degrees — including a Stanford master's — meant Jackson spent years solving problems where getting the algebra wrong meant a bridge design didn't hold: systems of equations for structural loads, polynomial models for material behavior, exponential decay for environmental contamination rates. He brings that same precision to college algebra, walking through topics like rational expressions and logarithmic equations with the rigor of someone who's relied on them professionally.

Chemistry majors live inside algebra — balancing reaction stoichiometry, rearranging rate law expressions, and solving equilibrium problems all demand fluency with the same polynomial manipulation, logarithmic properties, and equation-solving that college algebra courses test.
