Expert Math Tutor & Engineer: Real-World Math Made Simple (K-12)

Taylor G.

Hi, I’m your go-to math tutor! I help elementary, middle, and high school students stop memorizing steps and start truly understanding mathematics.
With a deep background spanning engineering, international education, and professional mentoring, I don't just teach math—I show students how it connects to the real world. As a practicing Civil Engineer for the Baltimore County Government, I bring math to life by showing students how the concepts they learn in class are used to solve tangible, real-world problems.
Why Choose Me?
Conceptual & Visual Learning: As a former instructor with the Singapore Maths Club, I emphasize how and why math works. I move students away from frustrating rote memorization and toward deep, conceptual understanding.
Highly Adaptable Teaching: My time as a Teacher in the Peace Corps taught me how to reach students of all backgrounds, resource levels, and learning speeds. If one explanation doesn't click, I pivot instantly to another.
K-12 Classroom Experience: With 3 years of substitute teaching across elementary, middle, and high school classrooms, I know the exact curriculums your student is facing and how to keep them engaged.
Academic Excellence: I hold an Associate degree in Mathematics, a Bachelor's in Civil Engineering, Mathematics, and Business, and a Master's degree in Engineering Management.
My Tutoring Approach
My approach focuses on:
Pinpointing the Root Cause: I meet students where they are, finding exactly where the confusion starts so we can build a rock-solid foundation.
Customized Visuals & Analogies: I break complex problems into bite-sized steps, using visual tools and familiar connections until the "lightbulb moment" happens.
A Safe Space to Learn: Mistakes are just data! I build a warm, supportive environment where students feel completely comfortable asking questions and rebuilding their academic confidence.
