FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
One-on-one math tutoring in Katy, Texas — the questions parents and students ask most.
What grade levels are available for math tutoring?
I help all students from Junior High Math to College Level Mathematics. Regular subjects include Algebra, Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus AB, SAT math practice, and Texas Teachers TExES Exam Preparation.
Including with the subjects listed above, I have also developed curriculum for the following subjects: Discrete Mathematics, Engineering Math, Linear and Multilinear Algebra, Numerical Analysis, Field theory and Polynomials, Ordinary differential equations, Partial differential equations, Integral equations, Convex and discrete Geometry, Integral transforms, and Operational Calculus.
Will my style of math tutoring conflict with the school's method of teaching math?
No. I have been teaching math for so long that I know different ways to teach each subject. I ask that the student brings me their class room lessons so I can see how the school is teaching it. Then I will adapt my tutoring to fit your needs. If I see that you are having a hard time with the way your school teaches it, we can always try another method that may be more effective to your style of learning.
Where do you meet students?
My Home in Katy, Texas (West Houston). All tutoring sessions are one-on-one and face to face. There are several reasons why I do not meet students at other places other than my home. One main reason is that all my textbooks would be very hard to drag around from place to place!
Are you experienced tutoring adult students?
Yes. I have tutored many undergraduate and graduate students and successfully helped them with their more advanced math courses. In fact, I even tutored several Ph.d's that needed help preparing for the math portion of the GRE exam. Another Common request is for the TExES Math Exam.
Are you willing to tutor multiple students at one time?
No. I have tried multiple-student tutoring sessions and they always devolve into a half-hour session for each student. I noticed efficiency drop-off even when the two students being tutored came from the same class. In order to keep success rate high, I only tutor one student per session.
Will you offer lower-rates for your tutoring services?
No. $75-$85/hour is the going rate for a skilled Math Tutor; my rate is $80/hour for all tutoring. With my level of experience, I could charge more... but want to keep the price reachable for the students that want the best math education that can't always afford an "Elite Math Tutor". However, depending on how market forces affect the tutoring industry, I may offer some sessions at a reduced rate for a period of time. As of now I am getting more business than I can handle offering my current rates. I guess my many years of quality math service speaks for itself!
Home School Rates - Do you offer a discount rate for home school students if you meet with them frequently?
No. Homeschool students are tutored at the same $80/hour rate as every other student. I do not offer discounts, packages, or multi-session contracts.
Homeschool tutoring is always one-on-one: one student per session, starting with 7th grade math, using your family's curriculum. I do not teach homeschool classes or groups. More about homeschool math.
Do you tutor online?
No. All tutoring sessions are one-on-one and face to face at my home in Katy. If needed, we can use Zoom for an initial consultation before the first session.
Do you tutor elementary school students?
No. My primary focus is high school, and I tutor students from 7th grade math and up. If you need Elementary School tutoring, I will be glad to recommend someone.
Do you tutor groups or teach classes?
No. I only offer individual, one-on-one tutoring for all students — including homeschool students. I do not offer group tutoring, group rates, or classes.
How do I pay?
Payment is arranged directly with MrsTutor. There is no online payment on this website, and I do not accept PayPal, Zelle, Venmo, or other online payment apps. Your first session comes with a 100% money back guarantee — see Pricing.
My student's school limits AI or calculators. Can you help?
Yes. We work your student's own problems, by hand, until they can show the work themselves. Read more on AI and calculator limits.
Will you tutor for an exchange of goods or services?
I can't say that I have never done this in the past, but it's very seldom that I allow this. If I have a need for a good or service that you or your company offers to the public, then I would be glad to entertain the possibility of exchanging a good or service for tutoring sessions. I am always open to creative ideas!
Are you currently hiring math tutors?
No. I have never posted a request for employees as I prefer to operate as a "one-woman show." I don't expect to hire any tutors in the foreseeable future, although this situation could change as the tutoring industry continues to grow exponentially.
