About Heather


Bio

I have been tutoring for over 10 years for students ranging in age from middle school to adult. I tutor most types of math with a particular strength in algebra, trigonometry, and pre-calculus. My goal in tutoring is to help a student feel more confident with the material and perform better in the course as a result. I love helping my students understand math problems at a deeper level so that they aren't just going through the motions to get the answer. I ask questions during sessions...

I have been tutoring for over 10 years for students ranging in age from middle school to adult. I tutor most types of math with a particular strength in algebra, trigonometry, and pre-calculus. My goal in tutoring is to help a student feel more confident with the material and perform better in the course as a result. I love helping my students understand math problems at a deeper level so that they aren't just going through the motions to get the answer. I ask questions during sessions frequently to gauge whether my student fully understands the concepts behind what they are doing -- not just what to do, but why.

I am proud to be a double husky, meaning that I have two degrees from Northeastern University. I completed my undergraduate degree in Chemical Engineering in 2017. I worked as a manufacturing process engineer for 4 years before discovering that my true passion was data analytics. I returned to Northeastern to get my masters degree in Analytics, and now work at the MBTA as an operations data analyst.

I started out tutoring chemistry and math in high school in 2012, then tutored Organic Chemistry throughout college. Nowadays, I focus more on math and data analytics tutoring. I can tutor the following subjects:
Pre-algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-calculus, Statistics, SAT Math, R programming, SQL (structured query language), Microsoft Excel

I prefer to meet with students in person, at their home or a public place like a library or coffee shop. I live in Littleton, MA and am willing to travel up to 15 minutes for no additional charge. If longer than 15 minutes, I may charge a reduced hourly rate for travel time. I am also happy to tutor online -- this is something I started doing during the pandemic and never stopped doing.

Please reach out if you are interested in my tutoring services! I am happy to talk on the phone to get to know you or your child a bit first so you can make sure I am the right fit. Looking forward to hearing from you!

Knowledgeable helpful and responsive tutor

Heather taught Trignometric equations and was very good in helping me understand and solve problems. We tackled some of the difficult problems in the book. Her way of asking questions to make me respond and understand better is very good.
