About

In this series, we will strengthen your pre-algebra skills, which form the foundation for success in higher-level math and on the SAT. We will cover the key concepts and then practice them with real SAT-style questions.

No advanced experience is needed, just a comfortable understanding of basic arithmetic

During the sessions, you can expect to:

📝 Solve problems step by step together
❓ Bring your own challenging questions (or send them in advance so I can prepare slides)
💡 Engage actively by explaining your reasoning, asking questions, and trying out different strategies

While the main focus is on pre-algebra, I can also provide support with Algebra 2, Geometry, and broader SAT math preparation if you would like extra help! 🦙💛

Hi, I’m Majo! I’m a high school and IB Diploma graduate, so I understand the challenges of balancing rigorous academics with personal interests. I tutor in Math and SAT preparation, and my IB background also allows me to help with study strategies, essay writing, and time management 🌟 I don’t expect students to always have the right answer or know everything right away; I’m here to guide them, support their process, and learn alongside them. My goal is to create a safe, encouraging space where mistakes are part of growth and learning feels less intimidating : ) Outside of academics, I’m passionate about the arts: I sing, draw, and play the ukulele/keyboard. I also volunteer regularly, which has taught me patience and how to create a supportive learning environment where students feel confident and motivated!
