Experienced High School Math Tutor

Nelli S.

I have master's degrees in Math and Education and 9 years of tutoring experience. I tutor all high school Math courses including AP Calculus and the new AP Precalculus. My sessions are one-on-one, in person or online.

I have a deep knowledge of Math, due to my degree. For me it is a clear and logical subject, and I attempt to make it clear and straightforward for my students as well. With my students I aim for understanding. I know High school math curriculum fairly well, due to my degree in Adolescent Education, Mathematics, and profound tutoring experience. My favorite courses are AP Calculus AB and BC. Last year 2 of my AP Calc BC students got the perfect scores of 5. My tutoring style is friendly and easygoing, and my students often praise my patience.

I grew up in Russia, where I got my bachelor and master’s degree in applied mathematics and worked as an Assistant Professor. I moved to United States with my family more than 20 years ago. Here I obtained my second degree, master in Adolescent Education, Math, from a CUNY college and had a teaching practice in a NYC public school. Due to my family circumstances I didn't take a teacher's position but became a private tutor and never regretted it.
