About Maria
With 10 years of classroom teaching experience, I am passionate about helping students build confidence and success in mathematics. I was selected to remediate math instruction for an entire 4th grade student body and 85 percent of my 5th grade students performed at or above grade level.
As an A student in all my college level math courses, I have tutored College Algebra, Trigonometry, Precalculus, and Calculus. I have developed a strong ability to explain difficult concepts in simple and understandable ways. I have the understanding of what a middle and high school student needs to go forward in their mathematical conceptual understanding, I look forward to helping them get there and providing support to fill any foundational gaps that would be hindering them currently.

Math Tutoring From an Educator who has Experience Making the Complex Simple.
My Approach as a Tutor
I believe every student can succeed in math when concepts are explained clearly, patiently, and step-by-step. This is what I have seen with my own students that I have taught. My goal is not just to help you pass a test, complete homework. I desire to see you thrive and overcome. To help you see why math works. I am very good at detecting gaps in the math foundational skills to assist where needed. I specialize in breaking down difficult concepts into simple, manageable pieces that build confidence and reduce frustration.
As an educator of 10 years, I taught in the elementary school system and saw many of my students overcome their math challenges. Students who said, I can't do this. They became confident and excited about math.
Teaching Methods & Techniques
My tutoring style is interactive, encouraging, and personalized to each learner. I use:
- Step-by-step instruction
- Visual explanations and real-life examples
- Guided practice with support

- Confidence-building encouragement
- Problem-solving strategies students can use independently
- Simple language that makes difficult topics understandable.
Subjects include:

Homework Help & Test Preparation
A Typical Lesson
Each session is designed to help students feel successful and supported.
1. Warm-Up Review
We begin by reviewing previous concepts or identifying where confusion began.
2. Clear instruction
I explain new concepts in simple language using examples, visuals, and step-by-step breakdowns.
3. Guided Practice
Students solve problems with my support while building confidence and understanding.
4. Independent Practice
Students try problems on their own to strengthen mastery and critical thinking.
5. Review & Encouragement
We end by reviewing key concepts and celebrating progress so students leave feeling more confident.
