Grow in Confidence.

Pursue your Dreams.

Empowering students in their math journey, one step at a time.

Beyond The Ordinary

  • Focus On The Student

    Unlike traditional tutoring models that rely on a one-size-fits-all curriculum and large group settings, my approach focuses on the unique learning journey of each student. This personalized approach ensures that every lesson is not just taught but tailored, resonating with their specific needs and goals.

  • Tutoring For Advancement

    For students in search of challenges beyond what their schoolwork offers, I craft personalized learning paths that enhance their understanding of concepts, facilitating further growth and development. This tailored approach extends to any student I work with, once they feel stable and confident in their schoolwork, enabling us to further deepen their mastery and confidence.

  • The Coaching Element

    As young adults develop, it's crucial for them to acquire effective self-discipline and study skills. Furthermore, nurturing an initiative for learning and independent research is essential. My objective is to foster autonomy in all my students by guiding them through both mindset shifts and practical skills that prepare them for success beyond the classroom.

What students and parents are saying.

  • "Maria is an amazing tutor!!! She was able to break down the most complicated algebra and make it understandable. The thing I liked the most is her personal interest in how well you understand and how well you do. She is very patient and takes the extra time to make sure you understand. Im so glad I found her!! She is a true gem!"

    Jennifer H. - Student

  • "I think the best thing I can say about Maria is that she has made math enjoyable for me. Decades have passed since I seriously studied math. I always found it laborious, and I wondered if it was too late for me. I will now always wonder how different things would have been if I had someone like Maria to make math approachable. Maria has a gift for calibrating the lessons to meet your abilities, and she makes things tricky enough to feel like a game and not an impossible challenge."
