Math Subjects We Tutor

From building number sense in Pre-Algebra to mastering derivatives and integrals, tutoring is matched to your course, your pace, and your next test.

🔢

Pre-Algebra

Middle school and early high school

Fractions, ratios and proportions, integers, order of operations, one- and two-step equations, and an introduction to graphing. The goal is a solid base so Algebra 1 feels familiar, not overwhelming.

Fractions & ratiosIntegersEquationsGraphing basics
✖️

Algebra 1

Grades 8 to 9

Linear equations and inequalities, systems, exponents, polynomials, factoring, and quadratics. Sessions focus on why each method works so students can solve problems they have not seen before.

Linear equationsSystemsPolynomialsFactoringQuadratics
📐

Geometry

Grades 9 to 10

Angles, congruence and similarity, triangles, circles, area and volume, coordinate geometry, and proofs. Students learn to build a proof step by step instead of memorizing templates.

ProofsTrianglesCirclesArea & volumeTrigonometry basics
📈

Algebra 2

Grades 10 to 11

Functions and transformations, quadratics, polynomials, rational and radical expressions, exponentials and logarithms, sequences, and an introduction to trigonometry and statistics.

FunctionsLogarithmsRational expressionsSequencesTrig intro
📊

Precalculus

Grades 11 to 12

Polynomial, rational, exponential, logarithmic, and trigonometric functions, identities, vectors, conics, and limits. Prepares students for a confident start in AP Calculus.

Trig functionsIdentitiesVectorsConicsLimits
∫

Calculus

High school and college

Limits, derivatives, integrals, and their applications, taught from the ground up. Covers AP Calculus AB and BC as well as standard high school and first-year college calculus.

LimitsDerivativesIntegralsApplications

AP Calculus AB & BC Prep

Both AP Calculus exams are on Monday, May 10, 2027 (morning session), with late testing on Thursday, May 20. Start early; calculus rewards steady practice over cramming.

📝

2027 Exam Format

Multiple choice: 42 questions  ·  1 hr 40 min  ·  50% of score

Free response: 6 questions  ·  1 hr 30 min  ·  50% of score

Each section has a calculator part and a no-calculator part. The format was updated starting with the May 2027 exams; the course content did not change.

🅰️

AP Calculus AB

Limits, derivatives, integrals, and differential equations, with applications. Roughly equivalent to a first-semester college calculus course.

Limits & ContinuityDifferentiation: Definition & PropertiesDifferentiation: Composite, Implicit & InverseContextual Applications of DifferentiationAnalytical Applications of DifferentiationIntegration & Accumulation of ChangeDifferential EquationsApplications of Integration
🅱️

AP Calculus BC

Everything in AB, plus two more units. Moves faster and goes deeper; roughly equivalent to two semesters of college calculus.

All AB units Parametric, Polar & Vector Functions Infinite Sequences & Series
⚠️

Where Students Struggle

Algebra and trig gaps surface fast in calculus. Tutoring finds the weak prerequisite skill, fixes it, and then builds up to the AP free-response style.

Strong algebra and precalculus are the best predictor of calculus success.
