Lucas J.
The Ohio State University
Need help with math, language, logic, science, or technology? I'm here for you!
Aloha, friend! My name is Lucas Jarrett, and I’m an online tutor! If I had to characterize my approach to helping people learn in simple terms, I would say that I believe education is a matter of teaching adaptability. The ability to adapt, or the capacity to change, is the fundamental skill of learning all things. We must always be prepared to adopt new ways of being. When we study life, we study the infinite; and when we study the infinite, our mindsets must be similar, or else we will not see everything that we could have seen. To realize that learning is the art of changing is to begin learning everything more easily. My primary goal is to help my students see and apply this awareness when studying anything they hope to do well. I have professional experience teaching many subjects, including arithmetic, algebra, trigonometry, geometry, philosophy, biology, history, psychology, music, billiards, writing, research, literature, English, Java, Python, HTML, CSS, SQL, and more. Furthermore, I’m happy to offer insight into cognitive habits that often bring academic trouble, such as perfectionism, motivation, inattention, depression, and anxiety. I do not limit my educational strategies to any single methodology; I believe that every individual has a unique path in life, and I therefore work to be responsive to the specific, immediate needs of my students. Context is everything. If I'm trying to help a student become a better reader and writer, I may recommend that we explore good literature together; if I am helping someone prepare for a test in geometry, good practice problems and instructional resources will likely be part of the process. I tutor many subjects not listed here, so feel free to ask about anything! If I know how to help in a reasonable timeframe, I will help! 🙂 Note: I offer discounts to people who have financial need or pay in bulk. Please feel free to contact me directly to discuss options if my posted rate is beyond your budget!

Promise C.
University of North Texas, University of North Texas
Efficient Mathematics Tutor with 20 years experience in all high school and most college level math courses, including Multivariable Calculus, Matrix Algebra, and Differential Equations
Since I am new to the TutorOcean platform, I am running a great sale for the first students: All lessons are currently only $15/hr. I have degrees in Mathematics (B.S. Cum Laude) and Physics (B.A. Cum Laude) and I have been tutoring college level and high school math subjects since 2006. I currently tutor all levels of Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus (high school; I and II; AP AB, and AP BC), Multivariable Calculus (i.e. Calculus 3), and Linear Algebra. I also occasionally tutor Ordinary Differential Equations, Probability, and Statistics. I received the Outstanding Service Award as Supplemental Instructor at the University of North Texas in 2007 and I won the military's "Who's your Favorite Tutor" contest in 2013 with another tutoring service. I know all the ins and outs of math problems. I love working with people and knowing that I've helped someone achieve real understanding of a subject. Oftentimes, students might struggle with an entire subject because they are missing prerequisite information on only a handful of topics, or even on only one concept; I can help you identity what's causing the problem and how to achieve mastery of that topic as easily and as efficiently as possible. I'll break down any math topic, problem, or solution method into its component parts, explain and describe how each part works, and help you work through examples and guide you step-by-step through the concepts and processes so that at the end of the lesson, you not only have the work completed, but have a solid understanding of the concepts and how to solve problems of this type in the future. I tutor exclusively online, and my schedule varies from week to week, but I am typically available most weeks M - Sa. Feel free to message me any time if you have any further questions or if you would like to schedule an online lesson.

Julissa F.
Towson University, Rutgers University, Union County College, San Agustin National University
I work with children, teenagers, young adults, adults, elders and people with learning disabilities. I am Bachelor in Arts and Sciences- Psychology. I apply excellent Constructivist teaching methods.
I enjoy when I see my students making progress. When that happens I usually see this particular expression on their faces that says: "I am conquering the world!" They usually tell me "NOW IT MAKES SENSE". I feel very good when they are able to solve problems they thought they will never do! All my students are unique! I have a lot of experience teaching people with learning disabilities. By doing this, I was able to find different ways to explain difficult subjects in a very understandable way. I always have successful results. I love when my students succeed.

Kevin K.
University of Mount Union, University of Akron
Experienced teacher and tutor with MS in Mathematics
Perspective on Education: I have devoted my entire professional career to working with students both in and out of the classroom. From tutoring my peers throughout my Bachelor’s and Master’s degree in Mathematics, to teaching college courses of all levels, to mentoring high school students, I have had the privilege of working with students of all ages, from various backgrounds, and from around the globe. With over 15 years of experience, I have developed an approach to teaching that is centered around developing the core of a successful student. I work to build a solid fundamental base, but more importantly I seek to impart the ability, confidence, and passion to seek out knowledge for the sake of personal growth. Regardless of your background or what topic you are learning, I bring an approachable, adaptable style to my work that develops a rapport with students that ultimately brings out their best. Math Specific Background: Despite never really being “into” math at a young age, I always excelled in the subject. By high school I accepted my fate as the resident math help and aided the school with peer tutoring and even joined the traveling math team for competitions. At university, I was inducted into the honorary mathematics fraternity, Pi Mu Epsilon. During my final two years as an undergraduate, I traveled to multiple mathematics conferences and gave talks on topics including, but not limited to, the mathematics of toilet paper. My senior year I received the Wilbur and Burdella Stuckey Carl Mathematics Prize for outstanding achievement in mathematics. After receiving my BS in Mathematics, I was offered a scholarship at the University of Akron to continue my education and teach simultaneously. In 2010 I earned an MS in theoretical mathematics and I have been teaching at universities while tutoring individuals ever since.

Jonathan R.
Bob Jones University, Liberty University
Experienced Math, Test Prep (SAT, ACT, ASVAB, GED, GRE), and Writing Tutor
After securing my M.Ed. in Secondary Education in 2011 and working as a math teacher and a substitute teacher, I ventured onto a different career path in 2015 when my tutoring work unexpectedly became my full-time job. During my time as a self-employed tutor, I have accumulated close to 20,000 hours with well over 1000 students while maintaining a five-star rating. My areas of expertise are math, test prep, and writing. Math may seem like some mysterious subject that only a few can comprehend, but that’s just not the case. I can help students unlock the mystery of mathematics and get them on the road to comprehension. In my time as a tutor and a teacher, I have instructed students at all stages of life and mathematical development—from third graders to adults in their 60's, from elementary math to college-level calculus. Test preparation is where most of my tutoring hours come from, as the years of prepping for tests can stretch well into a person’s adult years. Improving one's score not only means being familiar with the subject material, but also requires the right pacing, problem-solving strategies, and test-taking skills. In over a decade as a professional tutor, I have helped more than 800 students prepare for the SAT, ACT, ASVAB, GED, and GRE. Writing is another area where I can provide assistance. For students working on their college essays, I can offer guidance on selecting a prompt, constructing a response, and editing the final draft. If you’re writing a paper, I can walk you through the entire process, from brainstorming to constructing a thesis to finding and citing references to editing. I’ll help you understand the rules of grammar, punctuation, and format, and I'm familiar with the MLA, APA, and Chicago schools of style.

Alvin G.
University of Kansas
Expert calculus AB/BC tutor specializing in high school math
I’m A.J.! I am a chemical engineering graduate from University of Kansas. In addition, I have taken and excelled in college classes like calculus, organic chemistry, and fluid mechanics to name a few. In high school, I graduated with sigma cum Laude honors and had a 3.9 GPA on a 4.0 scale. I graduated in the top 10% of my class. Also, I scored 5’s on my AP calc AB, AP micro, and AP macro exams. I have had years of previous tutoring experience on tutor.com. On that platform I tutored mainly algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus. My approach to tutoring is simple and easy. I must say, many students enjoy my approach because it makes the answer very apparent to them. My method is to break the problem down and solve parts of the problem. Then put these parts together like an easy four piece puzzle. I ask questions to check the understanding of the student so that I know where to start. This is because math often requires you to understand many small concepts in order to solve a problem. I have previously tutored students ranging in ages from late elementary to college. Most of my sessions have been one on one. With a mix of online and in-person depending on the student’s preferences. I always have enjoyed helping students and nothing compares to when a student has that ah ha moment. Lastly, I’m always open to suggestions or feedback from students or parents regarding my tutoring.

Nhat Phuong T.
University of California, Riverside, California Baptist University
Mathematics Tutor with Teaching Experience
Hello, my name is Nhat, and I am excited to introduce myself as a dedicated educator with a strong foundation in mathematics and a passion for teaching. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Mathematics from the University of California, Riverside (UCR), where I honed my analytical and problem-solving skills. Building upon this foundation, I furthered my education by obtaining a Master's degree in Education from California Baptist University (CBU), where I gained valuable insights into effective teaching methods and pedagogical techniques. I have learned that each student will have a different learning style, and I am prepared to adjust to meet the student’s needs. In addition to my academic achievements, I have half a year of teaching experience in a ninth-grade Integrated Math 1 classroom and half a year in a twelfth-grade calculus classroom. I taught the whole class, but I also worked directly with students 1-on-1, offering them additional assistance as they worked on their assignments. Additionally, I held tutoring sessions every Tuesday and Thursday after school for any students to come for homework help or stay caught up. I was able to tutor students in algebra, geometry, trigonometry, and even calculus. This hands-on experience has allowed me to apply my mathematical expertise in a real-world setting and develop the necessary skills to convey complex concepts to students effectively. I am committed to fostering an engaging and supportive learning environment where students can thrive academically and develop a deep appreciation for mathematics.
