Learn Pre-Calculus from a caring, patient, knowledgeable tutor with 20 years of teaching experience

Learn for the first time or freshen up on your Pre-Calculus skills with a highly experienced and knowledgeable tutor! I love to work with students of all levels, ages, and backgrounds. We can work on homework assignments, basic skills, test prep, enrichment topics, projects, and more. One of the aspects I love about teaching math is that it challenges me to be creative in finding many different ways to explain how to work a problem or understand a concept. I am told I am a patient, caring teacher by the students, parents, and other teachers I work with. I look forward to meeting and working with you!

Mary Beth is so kind and friendly. Before the first lesson, she asked to see some of my daughters work so that she could prepare. Her method of teaching is clear and helpful, and my daughter found her lesson enjoyable. Thank you Mary Beth for being so patient!

My daughter was smiling and happy after her first session. Mary Beth was easy for her to talk with and she helped her with her algebra and improved her confidence.
