About Madeleine


Bio

I believe students should be confident in their math skills. Every problem has two parts: the first is recognizing the type (e.g. quadratic equation) and the second is knowing which tools to use (e.g. quadratic formula, factoring). We keep it simple and fun! By getting good grades in school, their paths in life are kept open. I have given students confidence in their math skills which has transferred into overall confidence in themselves. I have a BA in Mathematics from Cal State...

Approved Subjects

ACT Math

ACT Math

We will prepare for the ACT by studying the following subjects: Pre-Algebra, Elementary Algebra, Intermediate Algebra, Coordinate Geometry, Plane Geometry, and Trigonometry. We will also cover matrices. In addition, we will put together a weekly study program to increase the score.
Algebra 1

Algebra 1

We will study topics such as factoring, solving and graphing linear equations, and solving a system of equations. And, I really enjoy connecting with the student to break down word problems by translating them into workable math problems, and thus decreasing the student's anxiety and fear. We will keep it simple and fun!
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

We will study concepts including advanced factoring, function transformations, sequences, and series. We will learn the relationship between exponential and log functions. I also enjoy connecting with the student to demonstrate how synthetic division, long division, factoring, finding the zeros, graphing a polynomial, and evaluating a polynomial are all related. We will keep it simple and fun!
Calculus

Calculus

We will study calculus concepts such as limits and continuity; derivatives and integrals of algebraic, trigonometric, exponential, and logarithmic functions; related rates; and optimization problems. In addition, we will study applications of integration, such as volume. We will keep it simple and fun!
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

We will study elementary math concepts including: whole numbers, measurement units, and interpreting graphs. In addition, we will cover fractions, decimals, percentages, and proportions. We will keep it simple and fun!
Geometry

Geometry

We will study angles, parallel lines, right triangles using the Pythagorean Theorem and SOHCAHTOA, and special right triangles. We will also learn about congruent triangles and similar triangles. We keep it simple and fun!
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

We will study prealgebra concepts including: integers, fractions, decimals, PEMDAS, and prime factoring. We will also cover square roots, powers, and the coordinate plane. We will keep it simple and fun!
Precalculus

Precalculus

Precalculus is a catchall of topics that need to be in place before going on to calculus. Included among these topics are the unit circle, trigonometry, conic sections, polar coordinates, vectors, and matrices. We keep it simple and fun!
SAT Math

SAT Math

We will cover subjects including: right triangles, congruent triangles, similar triangles, surface area, volume, circles, linear equations, word problems, and interpreting graphs. Also, we will put together a weekly study plan to increase the score. We will keep it simple and fun!
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

We have fun with topics including the unit circle, SOHCAHTOA, the Law of Sines, and the Law of Cosines. I show the student how to use easy, logical, and intuitive formulas for finding the arc length of a circle and the area of a sector. We derive and work with trig formulas such as the sin and cos of a sum or difference, half angle, and double angle. And, I show the student quick and easy ways to graph all of the six trig functions.

Best AP Calculus Tutor

Madeleine is honestly the best AP Calculus tutor out there. She has an amazing way of explaining all topics and goes out of her way to make sure that you understand material by providing extra notes, worksheets, and videos for concepts. I highly recommend!

Joey, 24 lessons with Madeleine

Patient and explains very well

Madeleine helped put my daughter at ease and was very patient with any questions she had. My daughter was able to feel confident enough to explain a problem to another classmate! Would definitely use her again and recommend to others! Thank you Madeleine!!

Interest and percentages

Excellent instruction. Very helpful and explained concepts clearly. The hour lesson helped my 13-year old daughter understand the concepts and methods to solve problems. My daughter is looking forward to her next session.

Olivia, 1 lesson with Madeleine

Ms. Madeleine is super awesome!!!

I have used Ms. Madeleine's assistance for quite a few sessions to help my daughter in 9th & 10th grade math. In 9th grade, my daughter was getting a D in math as she was completely stuck on some subjects and fell behind. We enrolled Ms. Madeleine's help and within a few sessions, we noticed the progress. She ended the year getting an A in math! This would NOT have been possible without Ms. Madeleine's help, I know that for a fact! She is now helping my daughter with Geometry in 10th grade. My daughter was stuck on something and Ms. Madeleine helped her understand it in one session. A++++++++++++++++++++ tutor

Fabulous Tutor

Madeleine is a Fabulous tutor!! She is thorough and also very kind. I scheduled my daughter with her for a last minute Algebra II lesson before her final and Madeleine did a great job. She helped with study guide questions. Her explanations were clear and understandable. My daughter is so happy and feels prepared for her final. So glad we found her!

Georgann, 1 lesson with Madeleine

Excellent

When asked if my son would like to continue with Madeleine he said absolutely after just one lesson. They went through his homework and almost completed all of it.

Dana, 5 lessons with Madeleine

Knowledgeable

Madeleine is very knowledgeable. There are a lot of teacher that are knowledgeable but she has the ability to teach the student and make them understand the information she is teaching them. This is a gift. She is an awesome teacher.

Suneet, 22 lessons with Madeleine

Energetic and Patient

Madeleine worked with my 14 year-old daughter on her algebra homework, focusing on factoring and polynomials. Madeleine is energetic and patient at the same time. She really took her time dissecting problems to make sure my daughter understand the concepts.

Angela, 1 lesson with Madeleine

Great tutor!

Madeleine is great at helping my daughter understand geometry so she gets the concepts! She has helped my daughter improve her grades. Definitely recommend her!

Rana, 43 lessons with Madeleine

Focused and cares

Madeline is helping me with Precalc and trig and she is very patient and really cares that you get the explanation. She is always on time and makes sure to understand your goals and teaches in depth so you get the problem
