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.

Abigail worked with Myagmarsuren on converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages, including simplifying fractions before conversion. Myagmarsuren practiced converting in both directions and worked on reducing fractions to their simplest form. Abigail suggested bringing any difficult questions to the next session for further practice.
Rounding Decimals
Simplifying Fractions
Converting Fractions to Decimals & Percentages
Converting Decimals to Fractions
Abigail worked with Casey on decomposing numbers in different ways, focusing on place value and using subtraction to find missing values in number decompositions. Casey practiced with numbers like 245, 315, 562, and 473. Abigail assigned further practice on decomposition for the next session to solidify Casey's understanding.

Abigail Edwards reviewed exponents and roots with a student from Fort Lauderdale, focusing on simplifying expressions and applying exponent and root rules. The learner practiced various problems, including those with multiple variables and negative numbers. Abigail assigned no specific homework but encouraged them to come prepared with questions for the next lesson.
Exponents Multiplication Rule
Exponents Division Rule
Power of a Power Rule
Simplifying Square Roots
Roots of Negative Numbers
Simplifying Radical Expressions
Abigail provided Asher with a detailed lesson on exponents and roots, covering essential rules and various simplification methods. Asher actively engaged in applying these exponent rules, simplifying expressions that included both numbers and variables under square and cube roots. They are scheduled to continue practicing these mathematical concepts in their next lesson.
Multiplication of Exponents (Same Base)
Division of Exponents (Same Base)
Power of a Power Rule
Anything to the Power of Zero
Square Root of Exponents
Cube Root of Exponents
The learners, residents of Aurora, practiced finding missing angles using properties of vertical, supplementary, interior, corresponding, and alternate angles. They also reviewed polygon angle calculations, including interior and exterior angles, and worked through problems with both regular and irregular polygons. One of them has a quiz on Friday covering these topics.
Complementary Angles
Exterior Angles (Polygons)
Sum of Interior Angles (Polygons)
Interior Angles (Parallel Lines)
Corresponding Angles
Vertical Angles
Supplementary Angles
Abigail and Myagmarsuren reviewed division of decimals and practiced converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers. Myagmarsuren worked through several examples of each, focusing on the correct procedure for long division with decimals and simplifying fractions. Abigail suggested that Myagmarsuren bring any topics she is struggling with to the next session for additional practice.
