Introduction
I have tutored and taught math (i.e. algebra, geometry, GCSE, SAT and MCAS) professionally for 9 years and informally for an additional 4. In Boston I have taught at Chelsea High School and Madison Park, and have tutored for several companies. I taught iGCSE math (algebra, geometry, trig, vectors) in South Africa for 3 years. My strength in tutoring is catering to individual needs by adopting my teaching method to meet my student's best learning. There are many ways to explain math- and if you or your child is struggling with one, we try another! I love working with individuals to achieve math understanding, and I am extremely dedicated to my students' learning. Je parle français et j'ai aussi enseigné les mathématiques en français. Estoy estudiando español.

Sarah is the BEST. We could truly have never found a better math tutor for our foster son. Her kindness, humor, ability to meet him where he is, her professionalism, responsiveness, and total awareness of a lot of pieces of the puzzle are so impressive. My husband and I have marveled at the great relationship she's already established with our foster son, and he really looks forward to his sessions with Sarah. He loves math, but he had missed a fair bit in 5th grade - he is now in 6th grade. Sarah is catching him up and encouraging him every step of the way. We are so incredibly grateful for her. She is just awesome. We love to hear him both laughing from the other room and getting the right answer- and then we hear Sarah cheering him on and encouraging him to try even harder problems. We're super grateful to her!

Sarah at Math Tutoring was excellent and professional. She was able to explain the math I was working on in a way that made sense to be. She was patient and kind and that helped as well. I feel extremely confident in my math skills now especially in my new career. I'm forever grateful!

I cannot recommend Sarah highly enough as a math tutor! She was an absolute game-changer for me throughout middle and high school. Her approach was incredibly thorough—she took the time to go over every chapter and class notes with me, ensuring that I truly understood the material. What set her apart was her ability to explain concepts in new and creative ways that made even the most challenging topics feel approachable. Sarah also knew exactly how to push me to improve. She would challenge me to solve problems on the spot, which built my confidence and problem-solving skills. On top of that, she had an incredible talent for simplifying complex ideas and helping me develop clever tricks to tackle problems efficiently. Thanks to her support and dedication, I not only improved my math skills but also gained a deeper appreciation for the subject. If you're looking for a tutor who is patient, knowledgeable, and truly invested in your success, Sarah is truly the best there is!

I learned so much from Ms. Brown. Anytime we had a meeting together, I would no longer be confused about what I struggled with in class. My math grade would have suffered without her support.

FAQs

  • What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?

    I would prefer to start at a lower price and have you increase it once I've proven my value. I normally charge $85/h but it's more important to me that students at any income get the help they need. So please just ask if you need my help.
