About Rita


Bio

Hello, I’m Rita! Anyone can understand math and science, but they need someone to meet them where they are at with the material. I create a supportive space for a student to actively engage with the material and ask questions. Getting it wrong is part of the learning process, and my job as a tutor is to guide the student towards understanding.

Hello, I’m Rita! Anyone can understand math and science, but they need someone to meet them where they are at with the material. I create a supportive space for a student to actively engage with the material and ask questions. Getting it wrong is part of the learning process, and my job as a tutor is to guide the student towards understanding.

I have a Bachelor’s degree in Chemistry with a minor in Biology, and a Master’s in Chemistry. I have six years of experience tutoring middle and high school math and science, and eight years of experience tutoring and teaching college math, biology, and chemistry.

For high school students, I tutor the following math subjects: Pre-Algebra, Algebra I, Algebra II, Pre-Calculus, Statistics, Calculus, AP Calculus AB and BC. I also tutor the following science subjects: Chemistry, Honors Chemistry, AP Chemistry, Biology, Honors Biology, and AP Biology.

For college students, I tutor Calculus I, General Chemistry, Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Cell Biology, and Introductory Psychology.

I am happy to tutor in person at a local library or other public location, as well as online. If you need to cancel, I require at least 24 hours’ notice. I offer a free 10-minute consultation to align our goals for tutoring. Please reach out with any additional questions or to schedule a session!

Talented and Patient

Rita walked me through some of the hardest content in college level General Chemistry II during our session. She was very clear with her explanations and analogies, and not once did I feel the need to ask her to explain the same subject again but a "different" way. In two hours, she helped me save well beyond two days of work I'd have to do on my own to figure out how to move forward. Honestly, 10/10 experience, and I'm looking forward to working with her more over the course of the semester.
