Experienced All-Levels Mathematics and ACT/SAT Prep Tutor

Noah M.

I obtained a Bachelor of Science with Honors in Mathematical Sciences from the University of Memphis in 2024, along with several awards such as the L.D. Bond Fellowship, the Chi Beta Phi Award in Math, the Honors College Director’s Award for Outstanding Achievement in an Honors Curriculum, and the Dean’s Academic Award for the College of Arts and Sciences.

In 2025, I obtained a Master of Science in Mathematical Sciences from the University of Memphis, and I am currently a Graduate Assistant in the same department pursuing a PhD in Mathematics.

In addition to teaching courses such as College Algebra and Linear Algebra as an Instructor of Record at the University, I have also gained many hours of experience as a one-on-one tutor both independently and in association with local organizations like Peer Power and Bowie Tutoring. I have tutored students of all levels from elementary school to college, and at each level, those who sought help catching up as well as those looking to get ahead. In each case, I take great care to guide students to their own understanding and intuition about mathematics, rather than rote recitation of procedures.

Throughout my time tutoring, I have had great success working with students on their ACT/SAT test prep. While some students have come to me simply needing their foundations reinforced, which I am happy and well-equipped to do, I find that a great deal of students have issues with their confidence, not the material. For these students, I spend time forming a bond while we work through practice tests so that they believe and accept my encouragement of their capabilities. Many times these students leave with ACT scores raised 4 points or higher simply because they have become at ease with the test. The act of teaching is one that brings me great joy, and working with these students is all the more fulfilling.
