Experienced Middle and High School Tutor with Specialization in M

Arya Y.

Hi! My name is Arya and I'm currently an undergraduate student at Case Western Reserve University pursuing a B.S. in Mathematics with a secondary major in Finance. I have a strong command of foundational science and math concepts, which I enjoy breaking down into clear, approachable steps for students. My academic background has not only equipped me with subject expertise, but also with the communication and problem-solving skills essential for teaching. I’ve worked extensively with middle and high school students, focusing on creating a supportive, curiosity-driven learning environment that encourages students to engage with challenging material at their own pace.

My tutoring experience spans one-on-one and small group settings, both in-person and online. I’ve helped students understand everything from algebra fundamentals to Newton’s laws of motion, tailoring each session to their unique learning style. I emphasize structured, methodical explanations and always start by building a conceptual understanding before introducing formulas or procedures. I also incorporate guided practice and collaborative problem-solving, allowing students to grow more confident and independent over time. Whether supporting a student who’s struggling to keep up in class or helping one get ahead, I aim to be encouraging, patient, and clear in every session.

In addition to academic instruction, I prioritize relationship-building and open communication with students and families. I know how impactful the right support can be during the middle and high school years, and I strive to be a consistent, approachable resource. I welcome feedback and make sure each student feels seen and heard in our sessions. I’m always eager to work with new students and help them reach their full potential—whether that means acing a test, building confidence in class, or simply enjoying learning a little more.
