Hi! I’m Marvette. I’ve always loved tutoring, and my passion for mathematics continues to shape my journey as both an educator and lifelong learner. After earning my Master of Science degree in Mathematics in May 2025, I began doctoral studies in Mathematics Education while working as a University Mathematics Instructor at a Texas university.
My first tutoring assignment was in high school as an Algebra tutor, and I still find joy in helping students of all ages build confidence and succeed in math. After graduating summa cum laude with a BS in Accounting and spending 15 years in accounting-related fields, I returned to education, where I have spent the past eight years providing interpreting, teaching, and tutoring services in public schools and higher education. Through collaboration with experienced educators and instructional coaches, I developed a tutoring approach that helps students strengthen both their skills and confidence.
Most recently, I served as a University Mathematics Instructor, teaching college-level courses including Elementary Algebra and A Survey of Contemporary Mathematics. Using an engaging 360-degree classroom approach, I taught nearly 100 college students while helping them strengthen their mathematical proficiency and problem-solving skills. I also provided substitute instruction for additional university mathematics courses, strengthening my experience teaching diverse learners with varying academic needs.
I have extensive tutoring experience in Pre-Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Financial Accounting, and Managerial Accounting, and I enjoy discovering each student’s unique learning style and finding creative, memorable ways to help concepts click.
Whether you need support catching up, staying ahead, preparing for exams, or overcoming math anxiety, I’m here to help you reach your goals with patience, encouragement, and proven strategies.
Contact me to schedule a lesson. I have great expectations for what we can accomplish together!

Stop right here for an incredible tutor!

Such a great tutor, highly recommended! I was fortunate to be introduced to Wyzant through a friend a couple years ago. My daughter had a few sessions with other tutors upon starting and when she had the session with Marvette it was a great fit. She pushes my daughter to do her best. While nothing is perfect when it comes to academics, Marvette will provide the support your child needs to improve in mathematics. Job well done!

Five Star Tutor!

Miss Marvette has been tutoring my daughter for quite some time and her confidence level in math has soared! When she daughter started in advanced classes this year we knew it would be challenging and Miss Marvette communicates with me every step of the way. We are so lucky to have Miss Marvette. We appreciate her for being a tutor that genuinely cares about the success of the student and goes the extra mile!

Very caring and well prepared

My daughter was in need of a tutor and I got on this site and found Ms. Marvette. My daughter instantly connected with her and was so impressed at how quickly they covered all the confusing math problems. Ms. Marvette asked for her math work in advance, which I liked because it showed me that she was putting thought and preparation into the tutoring session. As a former teacher myself, I look for these little things that tell me a great deal about the instructor/tutor. I highly recommend Marvette's services! She is definitely going to be my go to tutor for my daughter from now on. This gives me an incredible peace of mind. Thank you Marvette!

Was very helpful, will continue to be helped by her. Breaks everything down so there’s nothing you miss, and makes it to were you understand it.

Amazing Tutor!

My daughter really enjoyed her first session! When she was finished I saw a spark in her that I hadn’t seen in a while! She made her feel at ease with math which is usually a subject that makes her anxious. Also, the homework assignment she completed after the session scored an “A.” Marvette has been a real confidence builder and we are grateful for that! We are looking forward to our upcoming sessions.
