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.

ACT Writing Tutor • +27 Subjects
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
Learning calculus in French adds a language layer to an already conceptually demanding subject, but it's manageable with the right support. The challenge isn't calculus itself or French itself—it's processing technical mathematical vocabulary (like dérivée, intégrale, limite) while simultaneously grasping abstract concepts like rates of change and accumulation. A tutor fluent in both calculus and French can bridge this gap by clarifying terminology, connecting French mathematical language to concepts you already understand, and ensuring you're not losing comprehension to translation confusion.
Vocabulary is foundational—without it, you're constantly translating in your head, which exhausts cognitive resources needed for problem-solving. Key terms like fonction (function), pente (slope), continuité (continuity), and convergence appear repeatedly across limits, derivatives, and integrals. Tutors who work with calculus in French prioritize building fluency with these terms early, often using visual representations and repeated exposure in context so the language becomes automatic, freeing your mind to focus on the mathematics itself.
Students often struggle with the transition from algebraic manipulation to conceptual understanding—particularly grasping what a derivative represents (instantaneous rate of change) versus just computing one using rules. The integral is similarly challenging: understanding it as accumulated area or antiderivative, not just a symbol to evaluate. Language barriers can deepen these gaps because explanations in French textbooks may emphasize procedural steps over intuition. Tutors help by using concrete examples (motion, growth rates, areas under curves) and switching between French terminology and visual reasoning to build genuine conceptual understanding.
French mathematics education, particularly at advanced levels, emphasizes formal proof and mathematical rigor more heavily than many English-language curricula. Students may encounter epsilon-delta definitions of limits, formal derivative proofs, and rigorous convergence arguments—all in French. Tutors experienced with French calculus understand this emphasis and help you build the logical reasoning skills needed to construct and understand proofs. They break down formal definitions into digestible pieces, show how to structure arguments clearly, and help you communicate mathematical reasoning precisely in French.
Many students use French textbooks alongside English videos or notes, which can create confusion when terminology differs or concepts are explained with different approaches. For example, some sources emphasize taux de variation (rate of variation) while others focus on dérivée (derivative) as a function—subtle but important distinctions. A tutor fluent in both languages can help you navigate these resources strategically, clarify where terminology overlaps or diverges, and ensure you're building a coherent understanding rather than accumulating conflicting mental models.
Beyond mastering procedures, French calculus exams often require you to explain your reasoning in writing, justify steps using mathematical language, and sometimes prove statements. Tutoring should cover not just how to solve problems but how to communicate solutions clearly in French mathematical writing. This means practicing problem interpretation (understanding what a question asks in French), showing work systematically, and articulating the logic behind each step. Tutors can also familiarize you with the specific exam format and question types your course uses, so you're not caught off-guard by unfamiliar phrasing or expectations.
Beyond strong calculus knowledge, your tutor should be genuinely fluent in French—ideally someone who has studied mathematics in French or taught it in a French-speaking context. They should understand both the conceptual depth calculus requires and the specific vocabulary, notation, and pedagogical approaches used in French mathematics education. Experience with students bridging language and mathematics is valuable too, as it means they can recognize when confusion stems from language versus concept, and adjust explanations accordingly.
Calculus in French can feel overwhelming because you're managing two challenges simultaneously—but breaking them apart actually builds confidence faster. A tutor can help by isolating language from mathematics: clarifying terminology first, then exploring concepts, then combining them in problem-solving. Starting with concrete examples (real-world rates of change, areas of familiar shapes) makes abstract concepts feel grounded. Regular practice with immediate feedback, celebrating incremental progress, and showing you how concepts connect across topics helps you see patterns and realize you're making genuine progress, not just memorizing procedures.
