Abigail - Know your tutor
Hi! I’m Abigail, a Bachelors-educated math tutor with over 5 years of experience helping students build confidence and improve their skills in math. I’ve worked with learners from middle school through college-level courses, covering everything from Pre-Algebra to Calculus II. I know math can be frustrating sometimes, so I focus on breaking things down into simple steps and using real-life examples that make sense. Every student learns differently, so I tailor each lesson to match their learning style and pace. Whether you’re catching up on missed topics, trying to boost your grades, or just want extra practice, I’m here to support you. My goal is to help you feel comfortable with math and actually enjoy the learning process. You don’t have to figure it out alone. Let’s work together to make math easier and more manageable for you.

Class overview
My teaching style is supportive, flexible, and student-centered. I take time to understand how each student learns best, whether it's through visual aids, step-by-step examples, real-world applications, or guided practice. I focus on creating a comfortable space where students feel safe asking questions, making mistakes, and learning at their own pace. I don’t rush through lessons. Instead, I adapt to what the student needs in the moment and build on their strengths. I regularly check in to make sure they are truly understanding the material and gaining confidence. I aim to make math feel more manageable by simplifying complex ideas and showing how math connects to everyday life. With consistent support, encouragement, and clear explanations, I help students become more confident problem-solvers who feel capable and empowered in their learning.

Mathematics concepts taught by Abigail
The Tutor and Student worked through identifying the amplitude, period, phase shift, and vertical shift of trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent) from both equations and graphs. They practiced factoring equations to determine phase shifts accurately and discussed the formulas for calculating the period for different trigonometric functions.
Trigonometric Function Properties from Graphs
Interpreting Trigonometric Equations
Key Differences: Sine/Cosine vs. Tangent
The Tutor and Student reviewed and practiced rules of exponents, including evaluating powers with integer and fractional bases. They worked on problems involving fractional exponents and the addition of fractions within exponential expressions, with the Student successfully applying the concept of common denominators.
Understanding Exponents
Operations with Fractions and Exponents
The student and tutor reviewed decimal division techniques, focusing on adjusting divisors and dividends by moving decimal points to ensure accurate calculations. They practiced solving several division problems, with the tutor providing guidance on error correction and proper procedure. The student plans to continue practicing division problems to achieve mastery.
Decimal Division: Adjusting the Divisor
Decimal Division: Placing the Decimal Point
Division Terminology and Setup
