Award-Winning Finite Mathematics Tutors for Students in Sacramento, CA

...great at math, but math is a very difficult and abstract topic, and the only sure path to success is through continuous effort. A tutor must have the patience to move through the subject at the student's own pace. Mathematics is important not just because of its endless application and its role as the foundation of the sciences, but because the problem solving strategies and intellectual tool set required in learning math are supremely advantageous...

...understand advanced concepts and apply them in the real world often feel frustrated and left behind. In a way I still am one of the those students but I've found through hard work and some clever strategies that it is possible for anyone to be a successful student and a lifelong learner. I have spent many years working with other students to pass on the skills I've acquired so that they too may find success....

I graduated from Davidson College in 2005 with a Bachelor of Science in Psychology. I earned my masters in 2009 from Wake Forest University in Business Administration and Management. My goal here is to help anyone who genuinely wants to learn and prepare themselves for success in education and in life. I enjoy golf and travel.

...in a topic and engage with their learning style, learning happens much faster and more effectively, and doesn't feel like work. I endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just...

...not working with this fantastic company for the money; I'm working with Varsity Tutors to help you grow academically. While attending the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, I held a few roles in academia. I was a class assistant for Differential Equations for 3 semesters, where I organized and led study sessions, graded assignments, etc. At different points in my college career, I also worked as a mentor for Calculus 1-3 and a project manager...

...then I have helped more than 50 students achieve their academic goals and be a mentor for non-academic counseling as well (e.g. career mentoring, what are your values in life etc). I will be tutoring mainly graduate test prep, particularly the GMAT, but I can tutor any college subject materials as well (mainly in Math, Statistics, and any business subjects). I have had a successful career outside of tutoring as well so if you are...

...with an Economics degree in May 2017. I have been tutoring for over 10 years and have worked with students in a wide range of subjects as well as preparing for the ACT. In the course of my work, I have personally witnessed the great impact that tutoring can have in terms of both achievement and discovering the joy of learning. Through these experiences, I have realized how much I love helping others learn and...

I majored in Middle Eastern Studies and minored in math during undergrad at Cornell. Since graduating I've worked in a number of fields and countries, although the common theme is teaching English and researching in the Middle East. As an English Teaching Assistant at Weill Medical School in Qatar, I became competent at editing and guiding students in writing. I'm now a first year fellow studying Policy Analysis at the Pardee RAND Graduate School.

...University of Tennessee. I am very passionate about the subjects that I tutor, which include mathematics, standardized testing preparation, reading, English, writing, and basic French, and I firmly believe that anyone can master these topics with the proper guidance. I incorporate various methods of tutoring, including showing many examples, giving thorough explanations, and prompting students with questions to help facilitate the correct thought process. I love helping students and seeing their knowledge and understanding grow...

Providing guidance in science and mathematics to help students understand the real-world applications of scientific and mathematical concepts in their everyday lives. I have a B.S.E. in Aerospace Engineering and a B.S. in Sustainable Energy Materials and Technology, and I am pursuing my M.S. in Aerospace Engineering.... Learning science and mathematics through real-world applications that show how concepts can actually be used to solve real problems.... I'd ask them about topics they feel uncomfortable with, as...

...at the Yellow Wood Academy, a private high school that offers students a specialized one-on-one classroom environment. At YWA, I taught all high school science classes (including AP, Computer Programming, and Environmental Science) and all levels of high school math. In addition to my teaching and tutoring duties, I designed individualized lesson plans, curricula, homework assignments, and tests. Subjects I have successfully tutored Physics: all levels Chemistry: all levels high school, plus P-Chem, O-Chem Biology:...

...knowledge. Progressing through courses of mathematics teaches much beyond what is on the page. It teaches problem-solving, critical and creative thinking. I try not only to teach the mechanics of math, but instill an appreciation for the skills the process can develop. And while math is my favorite subject to tutor, I have had training in and am qualified for all sections of SAT and ACT test prep, and enjoy working with students to help...

...students in mathematics and the sciences. In college, I taught a weekly class to local high school students interested in learning about neuroscience. Since college, I have continued tutoring students on a weekly basis in a wide variety of subjects. I graduated from Middlebury College in 2012 with High Honors in Neuroscience, and now plan to attend medical school. I am a diligent worker and consistently ensure that I am prepared to meet the student's...

I am a recent graduate of UCLA. I majored in Business Economics and Minored in Mathematics. I began tutoring because I love to teach. My philosophy is that if you can't explain a complex idea to someone who is unfamiliar with it then you do not fully understand it. I plan to attend a graduate program in Mathematical Game Theory by the fall of next year. After the program I want to become a professor.

...Fordham University and Alvin Ailey American Dance Theater. I am thrilled to be carrying my love for mathematics into the future in the form of tutoring. There are few things more beautiful or satisfying to me than the way complex equations break down into simple, easily solved calculations. My goal in tutoring is to ease the stress that frequently occurs when a student encounters a difficult problem and to show students how to put equations...

Hi! I am a professor, teacher, and tutor with twelve years experience. My students tell me I am fun and patient. I work according to your unique learning style.

I attended Harvard University on a National Merit Scholarship, and UCF, B.S. Mathematics, 2014, 3.8 gpa.

...facts until they're drilled in, but by helping my students understand precisely why the laws of science, the rules of grammar, and the events of history are the way they are, and by lifting the curtain on the intricacies of the subject matter. I believe that learning is, and ought to be, for its own sake. Math and philosophy, and their nuanced interactions, are my great passions. I've run more 5ks and 10ks than I...

...seems like a good way to give others the same support I received. Few experiences have been as rewarding as sharing my passion for science and tech with kids as a robotics camp counselor. Seeing children get excited to learn about programming, design, and problem solving the same way I did at their age with my old legos was amazing. Right now I'm looking to tutor in mostly STEM subjects, and though the website won't...

...group called the Experimentors who taught K-12 science and math. We traveled to various schools throughout Boston after class and organized curriculums for different subjects and age groups. However, I was always drawn more to teaching one-on-one, where I could form a relationship and really tailor my teaching style to the students' way of thinking and approaching various concepts and ideas. I have been fortunate to instruct and engage with students in a variety of...

...Nevada Mathematics Center, as well as a private tutor for students ages 12 through 22. I am a confident, easy going person who strives to make science and math stress free subjects!
