Having created over 100 math practice worksheets while tutoring middle schoolers, Robert knows exactly where students tend to stumble — whether it's fractions, proportional reasoning, or early work with negative numbers. His economics training at Macaulay Honors College means he can connect abstract...

Premed coursework in cellular and molecular biology means Laveda solves math daily — unit conversions, molarity calculations, statistical analysis — so she can show middle schoolers that the fractions, decimals, and early equation work they're doing now actually goes somewhere. Her 1560 SAT score sp...

From fractions and ratios to early equation solving, middle school math piles on new concepts fast and punishes shaky fundamentals. Christopher zeroes in on whichever skill is causing the bottleneck — whether that's decimal operations, proportional reasoning, or translating word problems into expres...

The jump from arithmetic to pre-algebraic thinking is where many middle schoolers quietly lose confidence — especially around fractions, ratios, and negative numbers. Tatiana (rated 5.0) zeroes in on the specific concept a student is stuck on and builds their reasoning skills through problems that f...

The concepts students encounter in middle school math — fractions, decimals, negative numbers, basic geometry — quietly set the trajectory for everything through calculus. Liza approaches these topics by making the underlying logic visible, so a student isn't just cross-multiplying but understanding...

The jump from arithmetic to middle school math catches a lot of students off guard, especially when proportional reasoning, coordinate graphing, and basic geometry all land at once. Winson's business background at Boston University means he naturally connects these topics to real-world scenarios — p...

From fractions and ratios to early equation-solving, middle school math is where students either build real confidence with numbers or start falling behind. Martin makes these concepts stick by tying them to hands-on scenarios — proportions through cooking, geometry through building — drawing on the...

I'm not tutoring or buried in my textbooks, you will either find me rock climbing at the Triangle Rock Club, playing Ultimate Frisbee, working on my car, or enjoying the great outdoors (beaches, mountains, forests--you name it, I love it). On rainy weekends I enjoy tinkering with computers and old e...
