My AP Calculus AB tutoring provides students with the insight and encouragement they need while helping them through their homework and other assignments. Students who work with me have a solid understanding of algebra and trigonometry, but they need support and guidance. They are motivated and determined to conquer the trials of their calculus courses and ace the rigorous AP exam when it comes around. My decades-long experience in test prep helps them become fully prepared for the AP exam itself. The greatest reward is seeing my students succeed and move on to even more advanced math classes with self-assurance and confidence.
Over the years, when I asked my math students what they thought about studying calculus, a few words bubbled to the surface — “scary,” “terrifying,” “too hard” — as if this branch of math were a horror movie! Calculus can be challenging and different, but so is anything new. What sets it apart from other math levels is that it is the sum of all parts. Algebra, geometry, trigonometry: it all makes sense because of calculus.
What’s Included in Lessons
Complete Interactive Support
My lessons go above and beyond the call of duty. I help students with their homework, but we also work on additional exercises and do remedial math review as needed. Whiteboards with advanced tools are ready for lessons so we spend all of our tutoring time on what’s important: staying on track (and even getting ahead)!
Homework Exercises
I always recommend extra worksheets and resources that students can work on outside of lessons. This way, they can keep practicing after lessons are over for the week. Then I check back with them about completed homework during our next lesson, to answer any questions and make sure they are progressing. We also do extensive AP exam prep by working through retired AP exam questions.
Tutoring includes:
Lesson notes (PDF format)
Access to free online resources with practice exercises
Regular weekly feedback on student progress and study recommendations
Student Reviews
“Kylea really enjoyed her session and said you made understanding the material MUCH easier than her teacher. We really appreciate it. Looking forward to future sessions!”
— Kim G.
“My son has been struggling with math for a very long time and after meeting with Natalie he was able to understand his lessons better. He said Natalie’s method for figuring out the equations made math more understandable and easier for him.”
