Tony
Calculus Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am a recent graduate of Yale University and incoming first year medical student at Columbia University. Originally from the DC area, I have always had a passion for science and medicine and pursued a degree in Biology while at Yale. During the 2008-2009 academic year, I tutored science, math, English, history, and Mandarin Chinese part-time with a DC-based tutoring company. At Yale, I worked as a freshman counselor to provide academic and career advice to incoming freshmen. I have taken both SAT and MCAT test prep classes and am familiar with both tests as well as the preparation necessary to score well. My personal career goals include attending medical school to pursue either immunology/infectious diseases or psych/neurology, teaching biology at the university level, and working in public/global health with either the CDC or the WHO.
Matthew
Pre-Algebra Tutor • +39 Subjects
I'm a highly creative person who works best with visual thinkers. Very recently graduated from Stanford University, I majored in Human Biology with a concentration in Bioinformatics and Stem Cell Science. Technical though my background may be, I am currently gigging as a singer/songwriter/composer in NYC and tackle even the most hard-science of problems with a top-down, big-picture, holistic approach. If you have a propensity to look at problems in a cross- or inter-disciplinary manner (or want to learn how to do so), I'm the tutor for you!
Charles
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +25 Subjects
I am a junior Mechanical Engineering major at Yale, and I hope to become a Naval Aviator after college. I am also a varsity sailor, and enjoy playing music with friends when I can get some free time. I have been tutoring my fellow students throughout my entire academic career, and I would best describe my tutoring style as one that adapts to each students' needs. For example, I have always tried to frame questions in a different way so that the student can better understand the question. Some students need visual representations of numbers and systems to understand them, and others benefit more by understanding the concepts behind each formula. I prefer to tutor in math and physics, and especially with real world application problems. I hope to help students improve their standardized test scores and their understanding of the math and sciences so that they can achieve their academic goals! Hobbies: art, books, running, reading, music, writing

Samuel
AP Calculus AB Tutor • +29 Subjects
I am a freshman at Caltech majoring in Applied and Computational Mathematics. My favorite subject to tutor is math because I find it very rewarding to simplify complex topics to aid in understanding. I have lots of tutoring experience. In high school, I ran and taught an SAT prep class and was vice president of my school's NHS chapter where I ran our tutoring program, and I, myself, tutored. I also was a teaching assistant in the summer of 2020 for a class in discrete mathematics through a program called PACT (Program in Algorithmic and Combinatorial Thinking). I love learning and hope to make the process enjoyable for you!
Quinn

I am willing to address any issue with an open mind and I try to develop strategies that play to a student's strengths. I would like to think I am very approachable and personable, and I have had very positive experiences with many students in the past using this philosophy. Outside of academics, I love playing basketball and watching sports, as well as chilling with friends, listening to music, and keeping up with politics and current affairs.

Frequently Asked Questions
In 3rd grade, students learn critical math vocabulary in Spanish—like "multiplicación" (multiplication), "fracción" (fraction), "reagrupar" (regroup), and "perímetro" (perimeter)—that directly impacts their ability to understand word problems and follow instructions. A tutor helps by teaching these terms in context through visual aids, repeated practice, and real-world examples, rather than isolated flashcards. This dual-language foundation prevents confusion when students encounter the same concepts in English later and builds confidence in bilingual math communication.
Word problems require students to decode language AND mathematical concepts simultaneously—a significantly harder task when the language itself is still developing. In 3rd grade Spanish math, students must parse sentences like "María tiene 24 canicas. Si las divide en 3 grupos iguales, ¿cuántas canicas hay en cada grupo?" while simultaneously identifying the operation (division) and solving it. Tutors help by breaking problems into steps: identifying what's being asked, highlighting key numbers and Spanish math terms, and modeling how to visualize the problem before calculating.
Many 3rd graders memorize multiplication facts ("3 × 4 = 12") without grasping that multiplication means "groups of"—a conceptual gap that creates problems later. Tutors use arrays, area models, and repeated addition to show students that "3 × 4" means "3 groups of 4 objects," making the concept visual and concrete. Once students truly understand what multiplication represents, facts stick better and they can apply the concept to new problems rather than just recalling memorized answers.
Fractions are abstract even in a student's native language, and bilingual learners face the added challenge of learning terms like "mitad" (half), "tercio" (third), and "denominador" (denominator) in Spanish. Effective tutoring uses hands-on materials—cutting paper, dividing objects, shading fraction bars—so students see fractions concretely before working with symbols. Tutors also help students connect Spanish and English fraction language, so they understand that "1/2" is both "un medio" and "one half," building bilingual math literacy.
In 3rd grade, teachers increasingly expect students to explain their work—writing or drawing how they solved a problem—but many students struggle to express mathematical reasoning, especially in Spanish. Tutors model how to annotate diagrams, use Spanish sentence stems ("Primero... Luego... Finalmente..."), and organize work step-by-step so thinking is clear. This practice builds both mathematical communication skills and confidence in expressing complex ideas in Spanish, skills that transfer across subjects.
Bilingual students sometimes experience heightened math anxiety because they're processing language and math simultaneously, which can feel overwhelming. Tutors create low-pressure environments where mistakes are treated as learning opportunities, use encouraging Spanish phrases, and celebrate small wins to rebuild confidence. By slowing down, using visual supports, and ensuring students understand concepts rather than just memorizing procedures, tutors help students see themselves as capable mathematicians—in both languages.
3rd grade introduces measurement (length, weight, capacity) and basic geometry (shapes, area, perimeter) in Spanish, requiring students to understand both the math concepts and specialized vocabulary like "centímetro," "kilogramo," and "ángulo." Tutors use real objects—rulers, scales, blocks—to make these concepts tangible and help students see how measurement applies to their world. They also teach students to organize their thinking: identifying what to measure, choosing the right tool, and recording results clearly.
Curriculum varies by school and region, so tutors ask about the specific textbook and standards being used—whether it's based on Common Core, state standards, or a bilingual program framework. They then target the exact skills and concepts your student is learning in class, reinforce the same terminology and problem-solving strategies the teacher uses, and help close gaps before they impact classroom performance. This alignment means tutoring directly supports what's happening in the classroom rather than teaching in isolation.
