High School Math Tutor Focused on Clarity, Confidence, and Result

Michael H.

I hold a bachelor’s degree in Mathematics and an MBA in Finance, providing me with a strong academic foundation in both theoretical and applied mathematics. My background includes formal and informal tutoring experience beginning in high school and continuing through college, where I worked one-on-one with students to support coursework in algebra, geometry, precalculus, and related subjects. These early tutoring experiences helped me develop a clear, student-centered approach to explaining mathematical concepts in an accessible and practical way.
In addition to my academic background, I currently hold a state-issued substitute teaching credential and have classroom experience supporting middle and high school students in math courses such as Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Precalculus, and SAT Math preparation. This experience has given me insight into curriculum standards, pacing, and common challenges students face in traditional classroom settings. I have worked with students across a range of ability levels, including those who need targeted remediation as well as those looking to strengthen skills and get ahead.
My tutoring approach emphasizes clear explanations, step-by-step problem solving, and helping students understand the underlying reasoning behind mathematical procedures rather than relying on memorization alone. I have experience working in one-on-one tutoring settings with high school students, college students, and adult learners, allowing me to tailor instruction to individual learning styles and goals. I strive to create a supportive and confidence-building environment that helps students improve performance while developing long-term problem-solving skills.
