Do you need help with your virtual or online math course? I can provide support as you go through your coursework and I can make online learning easy.

I am an experienced certified math and science teacher and tutor with 7 years of classroom experience. I graduated from the University of Georgia with a Master’s Degree in Mathematics Education and a Specialist Degree in Educational Psychology & Gifted Education.

This training and experience has taught me how to make math and science more relevant and interesting. As a classroom teacher, I am familiar with the Common Core Standards that teachers use to create their lessons. This allows me to help with current classwork as well as give students a head start with future classroom topics.

My goal is to make math relatable to the student so that they have a greater understanding of the logic and reasoning behind learning math. In addition, I can show how and where much of the math learned in the classroom is used in the real world.

Many students that have come to me for help have gone from failing to passing by the end of the semester. I've also been able to help students who claim to be “bad at math” to gain greater confidence and motivation to persevere and succeed in math and science.

I do this by adjusting my teaching style to meet each student’s individual needs and by utilizing various learning strategies so that it makes sense and connects with what the student already knows.

When needed, I also take advantage of Wyzant’s online platform to provide the same quality lesson online that you would expect from an in-person tutoring session. All you need is an internet connected computer. So physical distance no longer keeps you from getting the best math instruction you need.

I look forward to working with you, online or in person, to provide you with an educational experience that improves your understanding, confidence and proficiency with Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Precalculus, Calculus, Statistics, Chemistry, and Physics.

great teacher, very thorough!

My son has been struggling this semester due to the way the material has been taught. He has gone in early to get extra help. Tony very quickly found his weak area and present them in a way that brought clarity. I will schedule more sessions to get maximize the final grade and help next semester, also.

Math support

Tony is always on time, smiling & ready to support our daughter in Math. She feels so much more confident in her understanding after each lesson she attends. Thanks Tony!

Algebra 2 review lesson

My sophomore had her first lesson with Tony today. She's been struggling a bit so we just wanted to do a general review and hit some topics she was unclear about. Tony was wonderful...very friendly and explained things in a simple, easy to understand way that she understood. She left the lesson quite confident and said she feels like it really helped with some little things she wasn't grasping. We will definitely be doing more sessions with Tony as she encounters lessons or concepts she doesn't understand.

Tony was very helpful in reviewing the problems on polynomial functions for my daughter, my daughter was able to quickly grasp the concept. Tony is a great teacher and I would recommend him to anyone needing a Math tutor.

Great Tutoring Experience

Tony was able to accommodate a short-notice session with my son. He was patient and personable, and made my son feel very comfortable. My son feels like Tony does a better job than his teachers! We plan to stay with Tony throughout the schoolyear, if he's available.

Great algebra and chemistry tutor!

Very thankful for all you did! Highly recommend Tony!! My son learned more from Tony in a couple hours than he did from his teachers in several months. Tony has the patience and hills to teach and communicate complicated problems in an easy and simplistic way. We will definitely be calling him again!
