Award-Winning AP Pre-Calculus Tutors
serving Newark, NJ

Hello! My name is Mihir, and I'm a passionate and experienced math tutor with a strong academic foundation. I hold a B.S. in Mathematics from Carnegie Mellon University, where I concentrated in Discrete Mathematics and Logic and earned a Minor in Computer Science. I also completed my M.S. in Computer Science at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. My background equips me with both deep mathematical knowledge and a problem-solving mindset that I bring into every tutoring session. I specialize in tutoring Math at the middle and high school levels. In the past, I've taught SAT Math, AP Calculus, AP Chemistry, and Algebra 1 and 2, among other subjects. My teaching approach focuses on building intuition and a sense of methodical problem-solving so that students can avoid memorization and cramming. I believe that this is the best way for students to be assured of their own skills and have confidence in tackling problems on their own.

One of the most important things in tutoring math is to make sure students understand why a mathematical procedure works, not just how to do it. When student know how to do the procedure, but don't understand why it works, they will forget the procedure or misapply it, or worse, they may begin to hate math, not because they can't do it, but because they don't understand its relevance.

Hello! My name is Srishaan Iyengar and I'm a senior at Round Rock High School. Not only do I tutor here, but I also tutor at the local Mathnasium. Some of my favorite hobbies include playing basketball, video games, watching TV shows, and hanging out with my friends.

Hi! My name is Oscar, and I grew up in Washington, DC. I attended St. Olaf College and graduated Magna Cum Laude with a degree in mathematics in 2023. That year I started tutoring students online and I now have two years of post-college tutoring experience. Math is a subject many students find stressful or intimidating. It might make them anxious, or math might be their least favorite class, or both! No matter where a student is coming from, my goal is to create a low-stress environment where he or she feels comfortable making mistakes and asking questions. I've worked with students from elementary school through college, often on Algebra or Algebra 2. I've helped students improve grades, understand tough homework and class concepts, prepare for the SAT and Regents exams, and get ahead by teaching future material.

I'm a graduate of Fordham University where I earned degrees in both Mathematics and Music. I have years of experience tutoring students from middle to high school in all subjects, especially English, Math, and French. In my free time, I love playing and listening to music, spending time with friends, and watching Netflix :)

Hello! My name is AJ Eustace. I have five years of private tutoring experience working with students from middle school through college. I graduated from the University of Virginia with a double major in Statistics and Economics, and I'm currently enrolled in a Master of Social Work program at Ohio State. I specialize in helping students succeed in their math courses, particularly in algebra, geometry, and pre-calculus.

Studying Mechanical Engineering at Alabama, Abigail encounters polynomial, trigonometric, and exponential functions not as textbook exercises but as the language she uses to analyze forces, motion, and system dynamics every week. She channels that hands-on familiarity into AP Pre-Calculus by drilling down on how students read and interpret graphs — particularly the transformation and end-behavior reasoning the AP framework weights heavily. Her tutoring across the full math sequence from pre-algebra through AP Calculus means she can quickly spot the specific algebraic gaps holding a student back.

I am a graduate of the University of Florida as well as the University of Washington, where I earned my Bachelors and Masters degree in Applied Mathematics, respectively. Since graduating, I have worked in different I.T. capacities such as Quality assurance and programming, but I have always made time to tutor students in math. Helping others to do math is one of my passions because I know how good it feels to go from "what is this math?" to "this actually makes sense!". Although I tutor all math courses ranging from 7th grade level through undergraduate level, algebra has to be my favorite math to tutor because I see it as the starting point of mathematics; it's the course where students are introduced to conceptual math. Getting a solid foundation in algebra affects all future math courses as well as science courses. Outside of tutoring, I like to work out, play blitz chess, and watch basketball and football.

Before she found her footing in STEM, Riya struggled with the same abstract leaps that trip up most AP Pre-Calculus students — making sense of how trigonometric, exponential, and polynomial functions actually behave instead of just memorizing formulas. That personal experience shapes how she teaches the course now as a Computer Science major at Texas A&M, where she breaks down composition and transformation questions into concrete, step-by-step reasoning that builds real understanding. She's especially sharp at helping students bridge the gap between algebraic manipulation and the graphical interpretation the AP framework demands.

As a dedicated tutor with over 7 years of experience, I hold a Bachelor's degree in Biophysics from UCLA as well as a M.S. in Medical Science from Baylor University which underpins my expertise in subjects like AP Biology, AP Calculus BC, and College Physics. My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable exploring complex concepts. I am passionate about helping students achieve their academic goals and develop a genuine interest in the sciences and mathematics. I strive to connect with each student individually, tailoring my approach to their unique learning styles and needs. I love inspiring the next "Aha" moment in my students and helping them not only succeed in their classes but build a deeper appreciation and passion for the material. Outside of tutoring, I enjoy hiking and reading, which helps me bring real-world context into my lessons, making learning both relevant and enjoyable.

I am a career Mathematics teacher, specializing in IB AA and AI, both at the SL and HL levels. If I have to sum up my professional life, I would say the following about my experience: Examiner with the International Baccalaureate Organization (IBO) for Higher Level (AA) Mathematics. Massachusetts State Teaching Certification: Licensed to teach Mathematics (6-12). Massachusetts State Teaching Certification: Licensed to teach Physics. Training: IB (Physics), IT (Industry). MBA in Finance. BS in Pure and Applied Mathematics. Diverse Classroom Experience spanning over 30 years teaching in USA, China, UAE, Qatar, Syria and Egypt within the IB (Analysis and Approaches as well as Applications and Interpretations), IGCSE and US HS (including AP) Diploma curricula. Multilingual capability with fluency in English and Urdu, and in Hindi. Familiarity with various world cultures and their values; well- traveled in Far East, South Asia, Middle East, North Africa, Europe and North America. I will be most happy to expand on any of the above as needed.

Hi, I'm Laura! I graduated summa cum laude from Eastern Washington University with a bachelor's of science degree in mathematics and a minor in sociology. There, I earned the Frances B. Huston award, the most prestigious award given to graduating students, for excellence in academics, leadership, and community service. From there, I became a student at the University of Washington (UW), earning my Master of Science in Applied Mathematics and a position as a PhD student in the department. I was also awarded the Carl S. Pearson award for academic excellence in the Master's program. I have been working as a PhD student since then, with expertise in all types of math including algebra, calculus, linear algebra, and numerical analysis, among others. I also have years of experience coding in both python and matlab! I spent three years as an undergraduate teaching assistant, helping teach both high school and college level math classes. I also taught multiple sections of calculus at the University of Washington as a Master's student, and I have served as a teaching assistant throughout my time at UW. My favorite thing about these positions were the opportunities to work one-on-one with students, developing new approaches to help them understand difficult concepts. I love coming up with new examples or intuitive ways of thinking through math problems. I think everybody can learn math, and I love helping students of all ages and backgrounds achieve their mathematical goals! I have a number of resources to use in lesson planning, and I also welcome any resources or suggestions provided by students and parents to help tailor the experience to your needs. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or to schedule a session!

Hi, my name is Inaya, and I'm so excited to be a tutor! I have been tutoring for four years and in that time I have learned many different methods of tutoring. Some student need more hands on help and others just need to be guided into working on their own. Every kid is different and that is one of the greats parts of tutoring.
