I offer mathematics tutoring for students in middle school and high school. I tutor a wide range of mathematical subjects, including Algebra and Calculus and everything in between. My tutoring methods vary depending on the strengths and weaknesses of the student. I try to adapt my teaching style to match up with the student's learning style in order to develop a deep understanding of the material.

I offer mathematics tutoring for students in middle school and high school. I tutor a wide range of mathematical subjects, including Algebra and Calculus and everything in between. My tutoring methods vary depending on the strengths and weaknesses of the student. I try to adapt my teaching style to match up with the student's learning style in order to develop a deep understanding of the material. At the same time I also try to help students develop better work habits and study skills in order to become better overall performers in the classroom. I have been told by my past students that the way I explain math, using unique analogies and real life applications, allows them to comprehend the overall big picture; once the student has a grasp on the core mathematical concepts, everything becomes much easier because not only do they know how to do the math, they also understand why it works.

I have over 10 years of formal tutoring experience; I have been tutoring on WyzAnt for the last 6 years. While still attending Long Beach Poly High School I also (informally) provided tutoring services for dozens of classmates during my spare time. For 7 years from 2009 through 2015 I tutored LAUSD students as part of the No Child Left Behind Supplemental Education Services program. I currently attend CSULB, where I am working toward a Bachelors of Science degree in Mathematics (option in Education). Once I finish my studies I plan on being a high school mathematics teacher.

Furthermore, I become personally invested in every student I tutor; I make it my personal mission to improve their math skills, to elevate their grades, and most importantly to spark an interest in and create a love for mathematics.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

Algebra 1 is the foundation on which all of the following mathematical subjects are built upon, so it is essential that students learning it have a complete understanding of the core concepts and they are not just reading, remembering and regurgitating the information. A thorough understanding of these concepts ensures a better understanding of the mathematical subjects that follow. That is why I take careful time to ensure my students know why it works, not just that it works. Algebra 1 is the course I plan on teaching once I become a teacher because I know that understanding Algebra 1 is absolutely crucial to a students mathematical success.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I took Algebra 2 in high school and having tutoring the subject ever since. I help student build on the concepts they learned in Algebra 1 and Geometry further their understanding of both subjects as they progress through Algebra 2.

Great tutor that helps build confidence!

I was really worried about using a private tutor for the first time, but Jeremy is excellent. He worked with my niece and brought confidence to her testing anxiety and increased her grade points. He is flexible on meeting location and time which works with hectic schedules. I plan to continue to use him for tutoring services in the future and for reviews. You won't be sorry you went with this professional!

Excellent and knowledgable in all levels of math!

Jeremy's response time and follow-through are excellent and he's very knowledgeable in College level Algebra/Calculus/Trig. Will be using his tutoring services again.

More confident in just two sessions

Jeremy has made my daughter a lot more confident in math in just two sessions. He is teaching my daughter how to do pre-calculus. I think he studies his students on how they learn and goes from there. Before Jeremy my daughter and I would stay past 10 pm trying to figure out math. The event that led me to find a tutor was when my daughter was in tears cause she could not understand the math, and I felt like a horrible parent for not being able to help her. Again in just two sessions my daughter is understanding her math. I am very pleased and I highly recommend Jeremy. The reason for the 4 stars is because of punctuality. He runs a couple of minutes late. If not for this he would get 5+ stars.

Very good!

Jerry worked with our son over several sessions and I give much of the credit to him that my son was able to bring up his Pre-Calculus grade. I would definitely recommend him highly.

Michael, 3 lessons with Jeremy

Excellent Tutor

Jeremy does a great job tutoring our son in Algebra! Our son finds Jeremy easy to relate to and to understand. We would recommend Jeremy highly.

Leslie, 10 lessons with Jeremy

Just the ticket

We were all very relieved when, due to Jeremy's tutoring, my son seemed to stress less about his algebra class, and I think he even shocked his teacher, and that's just the result we desired.
