I studied Math up through Calculus Two in college and am highly proficient with any math up through Calculus One.
About Carrie
I've been teaching and performing professionally for over 10 years. I have my BA in music and business. I have had some amazing experiences along the way. I've worked with world renowned vocal coaches, sang at Carnegie Hall, and played on various cds to raise money/awareness for charity projects. I'm grateful for all of this, but I love working with students on their music most of all. It delights me to see a student have an "aha" moment where they realize that they have what it takes to be great. I'd love to work with you, but if I don't I hope you reach your goals and have fun doing it ! ~ Carrie Jo ~

About Donna
Most of my students are tutored in math. Usually my students suffer from math anxiety. They believe that they are bad in math. I help them to use previous knowledge to build on the current material. By the end of the sessions, they feel good about themselves and their math abilities.
I also have a Certificate in College Counseling from UCLA. I help students prepare for college/career from grade 9 through grade 12. I help with standardized tests, entrance tests, college applications and federal funding.

Lessons
Lessons are generally in a relaxed setting and designed to work towards accomplishing student determined goals.

About Amadou C.

Elementary math is the 'brick and mortar' that holds the foundations of mathematics together, allowing it to maintain its structural integrity from easy addition problems through the most daunting multi-variable calculus conundrums. In my lessons, I teach all of the fundamentals in a fun and energetic manner that makes it a breeze to understand and perfect. I show simplified ways to blast through the most tedious multiplication, division, subtraction and addition problems by applying various shortcuts and perks that exploit arithmetic. With my assistance, you are guaranteed to boost your grade school math scores to their capacity, as I demonstrate numerous arithmetic tactics: from quickly and accurately solving addition problems, to mitigating the dreaded, multiplication chart; together we will 'elucidate elementary math'.
About Amadou
As an engineering major at IIT, I naturally maintain an ex
I have lived in over 20 countries, which allowed me to speak several languages, and which permitted me to maintain my patience, élan and spirit of enthusiasm when dealing with even the most extreme personalities. I have solid background in both math and the natural sciences, as I have consistently maintained a 4.0 G.P.A since high school. I am now studying mechanical engineering at IIT, and I have gotten 5s in all of my AP Chemistry, AP Physics and AP Biology exams. I have also been the winner of many STEM-related competitions, through my demonstrating of exemplary leadership qualities and through my brainstorming of blue-sky ideas. I am also a "Mental-Math" practitioner, reflexologist and guitarist. I believe that everyone has potential; however potential is worthless unless put in motion. And experts like me value ourselves in our abilities to give students that push, that jolt of energy that galvanizes them into pulling themselves up by their own bootstraps, allowing them to achieve academic excellence.

About Hissael R.
CloseI have been teaching math for 6 years. Every student presented to me has different needs. As we go through some of the student's work, I notice what he/she needs to work on, and then we put emphasis on that. My goal is to help my students understand thoroughly the material in order build a strong foundation for further expansion on the subject.

About Maria J.

I have tutored many math students, at varying levels, over the past seven years. In pursuit of my B.A. degree, I took above the required math credits. I have completed the following college math courses, all with an A: Intermediate Algebra, College Algebra, Statistics, and Pre-Calculus. I will help students understand math by showing the steps. Also, I will help them understand what to study, so they can solve the math equations on their own. Understanding elementary math forms the foundation for all higher math; thus, I am dedicated to firming this foundation for the student.

Do not let your future depend on whether or not you are a "math person". Working with me, you will learn new skills, hone existing skills, and gain the confidence to pursue your educational or career goals no matter the math requirements. I am an enthusiastic, energetic teacher with a whole lot of patience and several years' of experience working with all types of students. I have worked with students who hated math and some that discovered they loved it. No matter where you fall on that spectrum, I will work hard to tailor your sessions to your needs, goals, learning style(s), and interests. The best in any field have a team of people helping them thrive. Let me join your team so that no math class stands between you and your dreams.
About Becky
Math did not always come easily for me and I vividly remember being extremely frustrated, especially in high school. One teacher in college, though, had a different presentation style, and everything started to click. After that, I knew that learning math was as much about the instructor as it was about the student. Moreover, I knew I wanted to be the kind of teacher that worked to meet a student where they were at and then teach to their learning style whe
So when working with me, either alone or in a small group, I will work to get to know you, your goals, your interests, and your learning style. Then I will do everything I can to make the topics relevant to you. I will never answer a "Why" questions with "Just because". If you don't understand when I explain it one way, I will try a different approach, and keep trying until you understand. Learning is a journey, but not one you should make by yourself, and I would be happy to travel some of it with you.
