Math Tutor | Algebra to Calculus| 6+ Years Experience

Amanda A.

Hi! I’m a math tutor with over six years of tutoring experience, primarily working with high school and college students. I have worked in college tutoring centers with both general students and student-athletes, helping students with a wide range of mathematical topics and learning styles. I earned both my bachelor’s and master’s degrees in Mechanical Engineering from Virginia Tech and am a CRLA Level II Certified Tutor. My academic background has given me a strong foundation in mathematics, including algebra, trigonometry, calculus, and other quantitative subjects, while my tutoring experience has taught me how to adapt my approach to different students and their individual needs. I enjoy helping students understand not only how to solve a problem, but why the solution works.

My tutoring approach is patient, supportive, and focused on building confidence and independent problem-solving skills. I first work with students to identify the concepts they find challenging and then break those concepts into smaller, more manageable steps. Rather than simply providing answers, I guide students through problems and encourage them to explain their reasoning so they can develop a deeper understanding of the material. Whether a high school student is preparing for an exam, a college student is working through a difficult math course, or a student wants to strengthen their overall math foundation, my goal is to create a comfortable environment where they feel encouraged to ask questions, learn from mistakes, and make meaningful progress.
