Fractions, decimals, ratios, and early equation-solving can feel like a pile of disconnected rules to a middle schooler. Thomas connects each skill to the next so students see that converting fractions to decimals and solving proportions are really the same kind of thinking. He's been tutoring math since well before medical school and brings a patient, structured approach that clicks for younger learners.

Having earned a mathematics degree and later a law degree, Andrea brings an unusual combination of numerical precision and logical argumentation to middle school topics like integer operations, expressions, and early equation work. The legal training sharpened her ability to break a complex problem into a chain of smaller, airtight steps — exactly the habit middle schoolers need before high school math speeds up. She also teaches across the full algebra and calculus sequence, so she knows which foundational skills matter most right now.
Engineering coursework at UT Austin means Jett built directly on top of the algebra, geometry, and proportional reasoning that middle schoolers are encountering for the first time — so he can trace exactly how today's homework on, say, solving two-step equations feeds into the math he uses daily. His 1580 SAT and 5.0 tutoring rating back up what matters most at this level: he explains things clearly enough that students actually retain the reasoning, not just the steps.
Seventeen AP exams and years of Science Bowl competition mean Beau has drilled through more math problems under pressure than most college students — and that volume gives him a sharp sense of where middle schoolers get tripped up on things like integer rules or translating word problems into equations. He's currently studying computer science at UT Austin, where everything from algorithms to data structures builds directly on the arithmetic-to-algebra bridge that sixth and seventh graders are crossing. That firsthand, daily use of the material keeps his explanations grounded in how the math actually gets applied.
I enjoy helping others realize their potential and making the impossible possible. Everyone can reach their goals, and it is my goal to help you reach yours! Math is my favorite subject, and I have even participated in competitions for it. I hope to help others fall in love with math as well.
I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old electronics, playing Pokemon, or picking at my guitar.
I am an interdisciplinary educator with an Ed.M. from the Harvard Graduate School of Education and a B.A. from Dartmouth College. My background is primarily in integrated arts learning and museum education and I specialize in visual arts, history and art history, and object-based learning. In all subjects, I take a creative, inquiry-based and learner-centered approach, designing opportunities for each unique individual to meet their learning goals.
I am a recent graduate from a masters program in biostatistics at Columbia University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in biological sciences, with a focus in neurobiology at Northwestern University. In August, I will be starting a doctoral program in biostatistics at NYU. I was a teaching assistant at Columbia University in my department and also have tutored graduate students and undergraduates privately as well. My primary areas of tutoring are math and statistics coursework in addition to math sections on standardized tests such as the GRE and GMAT. I am very passionate about helping students feel more confident and excited about math. In my spare time, I enjoy running, playing piano, and spending time with friends and family.
I am a graduate of Wesleyan University, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in Sociology with High Honors. With eight years of experience working in education, I've tutored students in math, science, history, and English, as well as helped students prepare for standardized tests. I've guided adults towards passing the US Citizenship Exam and taught English in India, where I lived for six months. Whenever I work with a student I personalize the lessons to fit their particular learning style, since I know every student is unique and having the right fit can make all the difference in making learning fun and effective. My strengths are tutoring the social sciences and humanities, as well as making math and standardized tests approachable to students that normally don't like those subjects. In my spare time I like traveling, spending time in the outdoors (climbing & backpacking), meditation, and playing soccer. Next fall I will be beginning my PhD in Education at Harvard University.
I'm Solange - a recent graduate from Harvard where I studied Sociology & Women's Studies. I've been tutoring for eight years now, and have worked with a wide range of ages and in a wide range of subjects. Some of my specialties are college prep/test taking II worked in the admissions office on campus); social sciences; and literature/writing.
I am a graduate of Washington University in St Louis, where I received my Bachelor of Arts in History with minors in Humanities and Anthropology. Since graduation, I have worked as a tutor, teacher, and director of tutors at a charter public middle school in Boston. During this time I also received my Masters in Mild to Moderate Disabilities from Simmons College. I have worked extensively with students with a range of abilities, including students with specific learning disabilities, emotional impairments, dyslexia, and ADHD. My teaching experience has given me a deep understanding of the knowledge and habits essential to academic success and has given me the opportunity to hone a variety of strategies that ensure students at each level can achieve their academic goals. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, my favorite ones are Reading, Elementary/Middle School Math, History, and Test Prep. In my experience, tutoring is the most rewarding when a student has that "aha!" moment and achieves a new level of understanding and confidence in his/her abilities. I am a firm believer in the transformative power of education, and I see my role to be that of a facilitator and coach who is there to help the student reach his/her goals through individualized support and rigorous practice. In my free time, I enjoy reading, running, practicing my Spanish, and discovering new music. I am also an avid traveler and just got back from a 3 month trip to South America. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you!
I am a rising sophomore at Harvard College and am about to declare as a Mechanical Engineering concentrator, working towards a Bachelor of Science degree. I've always enjoyed sharing my knowledge with my peers and those around me and have done so in both formal and informal settings. I've been a tutor for both Math and Spanish programs in high school and enjoyed the strides I made with students. I am willing to tutor any subject I have a background in, but am strong in mathematics, the sciences, Spanish, history, writing, and ACT prep. I enjoy teaching mathematics most due to the joy I can see in children once they master a topic and can answer even pointed questions meant to stump them, and maybe even put their knowledge to real world use. As a tutor, I like to give a strong foundation to orient my student, and then gradually grant them more freedom and independence until they can feel themselves grasp the concept, pointing out pitfalls or common errors along the way; teachers who used these methods on me always left the most lasting impressions. Outside of my studies, I really enjoy listening to music, both old favorites and new interests, reading classics, and gaming/playing basketball with my friends.

Frequently Asked Questions
Middle school math introduces a critical shift from memorizing procedures to understanding why those procedures work. Students often struggle with multi-step equations, word problems that require translating real situations into mathematical language, and graphing concepts. Many also hit a confidence wall when proofs and abstract reasoning appear in geometry. With San Antonio's diverse curriculum approaches across our 42 school districts, students sometimes find gaps when switching schools or when their learning style doesn't match their classroom's teaching method. Personalized tutoring helps bridge these gaps by building conceptual understanding alongside procedural fluency.
Word problems require students to read carefully, identify what information matters, and translate English into mathematical equations—skills that don't always develop naturally in a classroom setting. Tutors work with students to develop a systematic approach: highlighting key information, defining variables, and checking whether answers make sense in context. Through guided practice and feedback, students build confidence recognizing patterns across different problem types. This strategy-based approach transforms word problems from intimidating to manageable.
Showing work isn't just about getting points—it's where real learning happens. When students write out their steps, they're forced to think through each decision, catch their own mistakes, and demonstrate their reasoning. Teachers and tutors can see exactly where understanding breaks down, whether a student skipped a step or misunderstood a concept. Personalized tutoring emphasizes this process, helping students develop the habit of clear mathematical communication that's essential for success in high school algebra and beyond.
Math anxiety is real and common—students who feel rushed or embarrassed in class often shut down, even when they're capable. One-on-one tutoring creates a judgment-free space where students can ask questions, make mistakes, and learn at their own pace. Seeing patterns and connections emerge through patient explanation builds genuine confidence. When students experience success on problems they initially thought were impossible, that confidence extends to classroom performance and standardized testing.
Yes. San Antonio's 42 school districts use different textbooks and teaching approaches, which can be confusing for students and families. Tutors are experienced working across various curricula—whether your student's school uses traditional scope-and-sequence materials or newer problem-based approaches. More importantly, tutors focus on the underlying concepts that connect all these materials, so students understand the 'why' behind procedures rather than just memorizing steps specific to one textbook.
The first session is about understanding where your student is and what they need. A tutor will review recent classwork, identify specific topics causing confusion, and assess whether the challenge is conceptual (not understanding why) or procedural (not remembering how). They'll also get a sense of your student's learning style and what builds their confidence. This foundation helps the tutor create a personalized plan focused on your student's actual gaps rather than generic review.
Graphing and proofs represent a big conceptual jump for many middle schoolers—they require visualizing relationships and logical reasoning that feels abstract. Tutors break these down into manageable steps: for graphing, they help students understand how equations translate to visual representations; for proofs, they teach the logic of building arguments from given information. Personalized instruction allows tutors to use visual tools, manipulatives, or real-world examples that match how your student learns best.
