Finding a tutor is difficult – end of story. With tutors who are peers, part of a small business, or operate independently, you have to rely on word of mouth from people you know. When choosing from a tutoring company, you have the benefit of online reviews, a website that showcases the tutors available, and the knowledge that the pool of options is large and likely high quality.

I love guiding students in unlocking the wonders of math and helping them understand the “why” behind the concepts. I strive to make math approachable and fun, and I am here to work with each student at every step of the way to ensure that they feel confident to succeed in their mathematical journey.

I firmly believe that every student can achieve academic success, especially when they are inspired, so I try to connect students to subjects based on their hobbies and interests. By tapping into their personal passions, I aim to create a vibrant and engaging learning environment that sparks enthusiasm and cultivates a genuine love for the subject matter.

My teaching philosophy revolves around meeting students where they are, providing the necessary support and guidance to unlock their learning capabilities. I try to build relationships with students to help them to relax enough to ask questions and be willing to fail; one of my favorite things to tell students is that “mistakes are welcome here!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Does my child need a tutor?
Being actively involved in your child’s education is the best way to determine if your child needs a tutor. Staying in touch with their teachers, understanding their grades versus their peers, and knowing how satisfied they are with what they are doing in school are the best ways to know if your child needs a little extra help. Additionally, sometimes it may not even be a case of your child being behind, but noticing if they are dissatisfied with their academic performance and want to get ahead. These are several signs you may need to find a tutor.
How should I go about finding a tutor for my child?
When finding a tutor, parents should consider a tutor’s most important attributes. For example, how many years they’ve been teaching, if they’re actively state-certified, which courses they have expertise in, where they were educated, and what their personality is. Lastly, it is probably most important to assess how well-reviewed the tutor is amongst past customers.
What advantages do tutoring companies have over independent tutors?
It’s easier to trust a tutoring company that has established itself because it has a reputation to protect, more resources available, and the ability to provide guarantees and resolve customer service issues in favor of the customer. Independent tutors often feel that they have to look out for themselves first and foremost, which may not always result in the best experience. Additionally, tutoring companies are able to better vet their tutors and ensure they are safe for your child.
Do tutoring companies offer any guarantees?
Most reputable tutoring companies offer either a satisfaction, grade, or test score guarantee. If a tutoring company doesn’t stand by its services, it is usually a warning sign to consider. Because a number of factors contribute to how a child performs academically and how success is measured, it isn’t reasonable to expect a specific grade lift guarantee like a full grade improvement. But you should always be assured you’ll be happy with your tutor and if working extensively with them, you should expect an improvement and not worsening of your child’s grades.
