Taylor
BA University
8+ Years Tutoring

I am a learner for life and I love sharing my knowledge with others. I have tutored middle-school students for one year and university students for two years. My focus is mainly on mathematics, chemistry, and related fields. I have degrees in both mathematics and biomedical engineering so I cover a lot of ground in the physiological sciences, computer programming, and statistics as well. Taking tests is one of my strong points and I have some killer strategies to share!

Nikitha
BA University of Michigan
5+ Years Tutoring

The jump from elementary math to middle school math trips students up when ratios, proportional reasoning, and basic geometry all land at once. Nikitha's approach is discussion-driven — she talks through problems with students so they can articulate what they understand and where they're getting stuck. Her computer science background also means she's comfortable connecting math to real-world logic and problem-solving.

Surina
BA Arizona State University
1+ Years Tutoring

The jump from arithmetic to middle school math — negative numbers, proportional reasoning, basic geometry — trips up a lot of students who were doing fine before. Surina went through that exact struggle herself, and she's spent years since then figuring out what makes these transitional concepts actually stick. She turns abstract ideas like coordinate graphing and two-step equations into something students can visualize and talk through.

Rachel
BA Vanderbilt University
6+ Years Tutoring

The jump from elementary arithmetic to middle school topics like ratios, proportional reasoning, and basic geometry catches a lot of students off guard. Rachel teaches these concepts by connecting them to concrete situations students already understand, then gradually building toward the abstract. Her special education training gives her a sharp eye for where a student's understanding is actually breaking down versus where they're just making procedural errors.

Rebekah
BA Brown University
1+ Years Tutoring

The jump from fifth-grade arithmetic to proportions, negative numbers, and basic geometry catches a lot of middle schoolers off guard. Rebekah's approach is to try multiple explanations until one lands — if a visual model for fractions doesn't work, she'll switch to a number line or a real-world scenario. That flexibility, sharpened across years of teaching kids in very different settings, is why she holds a 5.0 rating.

Fractions, ratios, and proportional reasoning trip up a lot of middle schoolers because the concepts stack on each other — miss one piece and the rest feels impossible.

Nicholas
BA University of Michigan-Ann Arbor
5+ Years Tutoring

Ratios, proportions, and basic equation-solving tend to feel abstract until someone connects them to problems a student actually cares about. Nicholas brings a science-heavy background from the University of Michigan's biochemistry program, so he naturally ties middle school math concepts to real measurements, conversions, and data — making the "why" behind each topic click.

7+ Years Tutoring

The jump from fifth-grade math to middle school introduces ratios, proportional reasoning, and negative numbers all at once, which can feel overwhelming. Shreeman walks students through each new idea with concrete examples — converting recipes with fractions, or mapping coordinates on a grid — before moving to abstract practice. He's comfortable across the full spread of math subjects, so he can meet a sixth grader on decimals or push an eighth grader through linear equations.
