Algebra Tutor • +7 Subjects
I am a current student at Rutgers University on track to major in Electrical Engineering. I tutor a wide range of math from elementary level up to high school and college. This range includes algebra, trigonometry, pre-calc and calculus. I have had many experiences through my high school and outside work at kumon learning centers in tutoring. I love helping students not only learn the material themselves, but being able to know it well enough that they can teach it themselves, achieving my goal of getting students to work autonomously without required help. The many interests I have outside of the classroom includes playing basketball, running, video games, and computer programming.

Amy
College English Tutor • +13 Subjects
I have a B.A. in French and a diploma in Business French from the Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Paris. I also speak Greek, Italian, and Spanish.I have worked as a private tutor in the area of foreign languages, essay writing, and a variety of other subjects for more than a decade. In that time, I have witnessed the difficulties many students have when learning something that seems unfamiliar, uninteresting, or just makes no sense. Seeing this, I believe it is my responsibility to be a positive influence by ensuring that all my students do well and understand the material. For example, with French, I always give them a brief English grammar lesson beforehand which helps tremendously boost their confidence level as the foreign gradually becomes familiar.I am truly excited about working with students and encouraging them to excel. There is nothing more gratifying than seeing a student conquer his/her fears and expressing him/herself in a way he/she never thought possible. I work with each student’s specific needs in a patient yet firm manner. I also exhibit determination, empathy, and humor to make learning an enjoyable and rewarding experience. Most importantly, I am personable and understanding and believe that brings me closer to helping my students.In my free time, I love cooking Mediterranean/Greek cuisine and would love to open a restaurant one day. I also write poetry, short stories, etc. and am currently working on my first novel. Lastly, I adore knitting and crocheting cute, fashionable clothes and accessories for girls.

I am recent graduate of Binghamton University, with a Bachelor of Sciences in Biology. I am deeply committed to the value of education, and believe that learning is a gift and an opportunity for growth that should be available to everyone. For this reason, I am passionate about tutoring and helping students, so that everyone is able to not only do well in school, but to fall in love with learning in the process. Anyone can enrich themselves through learning. This is the foundation of my teaching philosophy: in addition to emphasizing results and academic achievement, I believe it is integral to find an individual approach to each student and to focus first and foremost on teaching students to study in a way that is effective and engaging. I tutor elementary, middle, and high school students in all subjects. In my free time, I like to go running, practice dance, learn new languages, and play ping-pong.

I honestly love tutoring. While working in finance and publishing over the past decade, I have independently tutored students from many premiere NY and NJ high schools and universities. I continued tutoring even after joining a major private equity firm because of how much I enjoy working one-on-one with students. Breaking down seemingly complex subjects is one of my favorite pastimes--it's part of the reason I also enjoy writing about arcane financial topics like quanto spreads on sovereign CDS. I've also developed a newfound respect for the challenges students face when undergoing years of testing after developing my own study plan to pass the first two CFA exams (I'm taking the third exam in June). This experience has shaped how I work with students to tackle test-taking anxiety and master difficult material quickly.I have both a BA and MA in English from New York University.

Hello! My name is Catherine Raj and I am a second-year medical student at Ohio University Heritage College of Osteopathic Medicine. I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor's of Science in Neuroscience in 2022. Since 2015, I have tutored children from ages 3-16 in areas of math and reading, as well as their school curriculum. Apart from tutoring here, I have worked for the Kumon Learning Center as a teaching instructor for 5 years. While I am certified to tutor a broad range of subjects, I have years of experience with tutoring young children in math and reading, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, phonics, reading comprehension, and much more. I connect with elementary and middle school students very well, as I believe in understanding children in order to give them a fulfilling tutoring experience. I also very much enjoy tutoring pre-algebra and algebra as those are my favorite math subjects, as well as my best! My students and I have always had a deeper level of understanding beyond the books and I pride my style of teaching on that aspect.

Frequently Asked Questions
Students typically struggle most with quadratic equations, systems of equations, and rational expressions—topics that require both procedural fluency and deeper conceptual understanding. Word problems are another major pain point, as they demand translating real-world scenarios into equations. Many students also hit a wall with graphing, especially understanding how transformations shift parabolas or how to interpret the relationship between an equation and its graph. A tutor can break down these abstract concepts into concrete steps and help students see the underlying patterns rather than just memorizing procedures.
Showing work in Algebra isn't just about writing steps—it's about communicating mathematical thinking clearly. Tutors teach students to organize multi-step problems logically, label variables, and explain why each step follows from the previous one. This is especially important for factoring, solving equations, and graphing problems where teachers need to see the reasoning, not just the final answer. When students practice articulating their process, they also catch their own mistakes earlier and build stronger problem-solving habits that transfer to more complex topics like systems and quadratics.
Word problems require students to translate language into mathematical symbols—a skill that doesn't develop automatically from solving equations alone. Many students freeze because they don't know where to start or what variable to define. Tutors teach a structured approach: identify what you're looking for, define your variable clearly, write the equation, and solve it step by step. By working through problems together and discussing why certain equations match certain scenarios, students build confidence and start to recognize patterns (like distance = rate × time) that appear across different problems.
Many students can plot points but don't understand what a graph actually represents or how it connects to an equation. Tutors help students see that a graph is a visual representation of all solutions to an equation, and that features like slope, intercepts, and vertex have real meaning. For parabolas especially, students learn how the equation y = a(x - h)² + k directly tells you the vertex and direction without needing to plot dozens of points. This conceptual understanding makes graphing transformations, interpreting graphs in context, and solving systems graphically feel logical rather than arbitrary.
Math anxiety often peaks in 10th Grade Algebra because the jump from concrete arithmetic to abstract symbols feels overwhelming. In personalized 1-on-1 instruction, tutors work at each student's pace, celebrate small wins, and help them see that struggling with a concept doesn't mean they're "bad at math"—it means they need a different explanation or more practice with that specific skill. Tutors also normalize mistakes as part of learning and teach students to check their work and debug their own errors, which builds genuine confidence rather than just test-prep cramming.
Beyond knowing Algebra content, effective tutors understand the conceptual leaps students need to make—from thinking procedurally ("follow these steps") to thinking algebraically ("why does this equation model this situation?"). They should be able to diagnose where a student's understanding breaks down, explain concepts multiple ways, and connect abstract ideas to concrete examples. Strong tutors also recognize different textbook approaches (some emphasize graphing first, others start with equations) and can adapt their teaching to match what a student is learning in class, rather than introducing conflicting methods.
For students who are struggling, tutors fill gaps from earlier math (like factoring basics or linear equations) that make Algebra harder than it needs to be. For students at grade level, tutors deepen conceptual understanding and teach problem-solving strategies that improve performance on tests and applications. For advanced students, tutors challenge them with multi-step problems, proof-based reasoning, and connections to functions and sequences. Personalized instruction means each student gets exactly what they need—no more, no less—rather than a one-size-fits-all approach.
Algebra is fundamentally about recognizing patterns and relationships, but many students see it as isolated topics: linear equations, then quadratics, then systems. Tutors help students notice that solving linear equations, graphing lines, and solving systems all use the same core ideas about relationships between variables. They show how factoring connects to finding roots, how completing the square reveals the vertex form of a parabola, and how the discriminant tells you how many solutions exist before you even solve. When students see these connections, Algebra shifts from memorizing procedures to understanding a coherent system.
