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 concept taught by Abigail
The lesson covered absolute values, including simplifying expressions and solving equations with variables inside absolute values. The learner, a resident of Cherry Hill, diligently practiced various problems and learned to set up two equations when solving for variables within absolute values. Further practice on absolute value problems is planned for the next lesson.
Sign Rules for Multiplication/Division
Absolute Value Equations (Variables)
Absolute Value Definition
No Solution for Negative Absolute Value
Abigail worked with Claudia on geometric transformations, specifically rotations and translations, reviewing rules for 180-degree rotations and introducing 90-degree rotations. Claudia practiced identifying translations and inverse transformations, and also reviewed finding missing angles in triangles. No specific homework was assigned, but the session prepared Claudia for upcoming work on triangles.
180° Rotation
Translation
Reflection
Sum of Angles in a Triangle
Abigail and Claudia reviewed simplifying equations through expansion and factorization and then transitioned to probability, covering the 'and/or' rule and converting fractions to percentages. Claudia practiced calculating probabilities in different scenarios, including dice rolls. They plan to continue probability exercises next week.
Factorization by Grouping
Fraction to Percentage Conversion
Probability (AND/OR Rules)
Expanding Expressions
Combining Like Terms (Multi-Variable)
Abigail and Claudia reviewed the distributive property and practiced simplifying algebraic expressions, focusing on the correct handling of negative signs. Claudia worked through several examples, and Abigail provided step-by-step guidance to clarify the sign changes during distribution and factoring. They plan to align future sessions with Claudia's school curriculum.
Distributive Property
Distributing a Negative
Multiplying Negative Numbers
Factoring Out a Negative
Abigail and Claudia reviewed factoring algebraic expressions and worked on probability problems. Claudia practiced identifying common factors and simplifying expressions, then calculated probabilities related to dice rolls, card draws, and combined events. They worked through word problems involving combined probabilities and will continue next week.
Commutative Property
Grouping Like Terms
Factoring Expressions
Basic Probability
Combined Probability ('AND')
Abigail and Claudia reviewed mathematical properties including associative, distributive, commutative, and inverse properties. They then practiced factorization of algebraic expressions, identifying common factors and applying the distributive property in reverse. They will continue with factorization in the next session.
