From counting and number sense in kindergarten to derivatives and integrals in college, every student learns math differently. Sessions are built around where your student actually is, not where a textbook says they should be, so gaps get filled and confidence grows alongside skill.
Thorough assessment of current skills and concept gaps before we begin.
Interactive online sessions with real-time problem solving and screen sharing.
Homework help, test prep, and concept-building sessions. Whatever the student needs most.
Flexible scheduling to fit after-school, evening, and weekend routines.

Question 1
Kindergarten · Counting & Cardinality
Maria has 4 apples. She picks 3 more from the tree. How many apples does Maria have now?
Correct Answer: B. Maria starts with 4 apples and picks 3 more: \(4 + 3 = 7\). A great strategy for young learners is to start with the bigger number (4) and count up 3: "5, 6, 7."
Question 2
Grade 1 · Place Value
What is the value of the digit 3 in the number 35?
Correct Answer: C. In the number 35, the digit 3 is in the tens place. That means it represents 3 tens, or 30. The digit 5 is in the ones place and represents 5. Together: \(30 + 5 = 35\).
Question 3
Grade 2 · Addition & Subtraction
A bookstore had 85 books. It sold 47 books on Saturday. How many books are left?
Correct Answer: A. \(85 - 47 = 38\). One strategy: \(85 - 40 = 45\), then \(45 - 7 = 38\). Breaking subtraction into steps makes it easier to manage!
Question 4
Grade 3 · Multiplication
A classroom has 6 rows of desks. Each row has 7 desks. How many desks are in the classroom?
Correct Answer: D. \(6 \times 7 = 42\). Equal groups are the foundation of multiplication: 6 groups of 7 is the same as adding 7 six times: \(7+7+7+7+7+7 = 42\).
Question 5
Grade 3 · Fractions
Which fraction is equivalent to \(\dfrac{1}{2}\)?
Correct Answer: B. Equivalent fractions represent the same amount. \(\dfrac{3}{6}\) simplifies to \(\dfrac{1}{2}\) (divide top and bottom by 3). You can also multiply: \(\dfrac{1 \times 3}{2 \times 3} = \dfrac{3}{6}\). Think of it as cutting a pizza into 6 slices and taking 3 - same as taking 1 out of 2 halves!
Question 6
Grade 4 · Multi-Digit Multiplication
What is \(24 \times 15\)?
Correct Answer: C. One clean strategy: \(24 \times 15 = 24 \times 10 + 24 \times 5 = 240 + 120 = 360\). Breaking multiplication into friendlier parts (the distributive property) is a powerful mental math tool.
Question 7
Grade 5 · Fractions - Adding Unlike Denominators
What is \(\dfrac{1}{3} + \dfrac{1}{4}\)?
Correct Answer: A. To add fractions with different denominators, find a common denominator first. The LCD of 3 and 4 is 12. Convert: \(\dfrac{1}{3} = \dfrac{4}{12}\) and \(\dfrac{1}{4} = \dfrac{3}{12}\). Then add: \(\dfrac{4}{12} + \dfrac{3}{12} = \dfrac{7}{12}\).
Question 8
Grade 5 · Decimals
What is \(3.6 \times 0.4\)?
Correct Answer: D. Multiply as whole numbers first: \(36 \times 4 = 144\). Count total decimal places in both factors: 3.6 has 1, and 0.4 has 1, so that's 2 decimal places total. Place the decimal: \(1.44\).
Question 9
Grade 6 · Ratios & Proportions
A recipe uses 3 cups of flour for every 2 cups of sugar. If you want to use 9 cups of flour, how many cups of sugar do you need?
Correct Answer: B. Set up a proportion: \(\dfrac{3}{2} = \dfrac{9}{x}\). Cross-multiply: \(3x = 18\), so \(x = 6\).
Question 10
Grade 6 · Integers
What is \(-8 + 3\)?
Correct Answer: C. Think of a number line: start at \(-8\) and move 3 steps to the right, landing on \(-5\).
Question 11
Grade 7 · Percentages
A jacket costs $80. It is on sale for 25% off. What is the sale price?
Correct Answer: A. 25% of $80 = \(0.25 \times 80 = \$20\) discount. Sale price = \(\$80 - \$20 = \$60\).
Question 12
Grade 7 · Proportional Relationships
A car travels at a constant speed of 60 miles per hour. How far does it travel in 2.5 hours?
Correct Answer: B. Add 7 to both sides: \(3x = 21\). Divide both sides by 3: \(x = 7\). Check: \(3(7) - 7 = 14\). ✓
Question 14
Grade 8 · Pythagorean Theorem
A right triangle has legs of length 6 and 8. What is the length of the hypotenuse?
Correct Answer: C. Use \(a^2 + b^2 = c^2\): \(6^2 + 8^2 = 36 + 64 = 100\). So \(c = \sqrt{100} = 10\).
Question 15
Grade 8 · Linear Relationships
A plumber charges a $40 flat fee plus $40 per hour. Which equation represents the total cost \(C\) for \(h\) hours of work?
Correct Answer: A. The $40/hour is the rate. The flat fee is added on top. So \(C = 40h + 50\).

Question 1
Algebra · Exponential Functions
A bacterial population triples in size every 4 hours. If the initial population at \(t = 0\) is 150, which expression represents the population after \(t\) hours?
Correct Answer: C. Exponential growth follows \(P = I \cdot R^{t/p}\), where \(I = 150\), \(R = 3\), and \(p = 4\). The exponent \(t/4\) counts how many 4-hour periods have passed.
Question 2
Algebra · Systems of Equations
In the \(xy\)-plane, the parabola \(y = x^2 - 6x + 14\) intersects the line \(y = 2x + k\) at exactly one point. What is the value of \(k\)?
Correct Answer: A. Set equal: \(x^2 - 8x + (14 - k) = 0\). For exactly one intersection, discriminant = 0: \(64 - 4(14-k) = 0 \Rightarrow k = -2\).
Question 3
Algebra · Linear Functions
A line passes through the points \((3,\ 11)\) and \((-1,\ -5)\). Which of the following is the equation of this line?
Correct Answer: C. Slope \(m = \dfrac{16}{4} = 4\). Using point-slope: \(y = 4x - 1\).
Question 4
Algebra · Quadratic Equations
The function \(f(x) = x^2 - 10x + 21\) has two zeros. What is the sum of those zeros?
Correct Answer: D. By Vieta's formulas: sum of roots = \(-b/a = 10\). Or factor: \((x-3)(x-7)\) gives roots 3 and 7; \(3 + 7 = 10\).
Question 5
Algebra · Polynomial Expressions
Which expression is equivalent to \((2x^3 - 5x^2 + 3x - 7) - (x^3 + 2x^2 - 6x + 4)\)?
Correct Answer: B. Distribute the negative and combine like terms: \(x^3 - 7x^2 + 9x - 11\).
Question 6
Algebra · Rational Expressions
Which expression is equivalent to \(\dfrac{x^2 - 9}{x^2 - x - 6}\)?
Correct Answer: C. Factor: \(\dfrac{(x+3)(x-3)}{(x-3)(x+2)}\). Cancel \((x-3)\): \(\dfrac{x+3}{x+2}\).
Question 7
Geometry · Area & Volume
A cylindrical water tank has a radius of 6 feet and a height of 10 feet. Water fills the tank at \(9\pi\) cubic feet per minute. How many minutes to fill it completely?
Correct Answer: A. Volume \(= \pi(36)(10) = 360\pi\). Time \(= \dfrac{360\pi}{9\pi} = 40\) minutes.
Question 8
Geometry · Trigonometry
In a right triangle, \(\sin\theta = \dfrac{5}{13}\). What is \(\cos\theta\)?
Correct Answer: B. Adjacent \(= \sqrt{13^2 - 5^2} = 12\). So \(\cos\theta = \dfrac{12}{13}\).
Question 9
Statistics · Measures of Center
A data set of 6 values has a mean of 14. If the value 8 is removed, what is the mean of the remaining 5 values?
Correct Answer: C. Total sum \(= 84\). Remove 8: new sum \(= 76\). New mean \(= \dfrac{76}{5} = 15.2\).
Question 10
Statistics · Probability
A bag contains 4 red marbles, 6 blue marbles, and 2 green marbles. What is the probability of NOT drawing a green marble?
If \(f(x) = 2x^2 + 3\), what is \(f(x + 1) - f(x)\)?
Correct Answer: B. \(f(x+1) = 2x^2 + 4x + 5\). Subtract \(f(x)\): result is \(4x + 2\).
Question 12
Precalculus · Circles
A circle has equation \(x^2 + y^2 - 8x + 6y = 0\). What is the radius?
Correct Answer: D. Complete the square: \((x-4)^2 + (y+3)^2 = 25\). Radius \(= 5\).
Question 13
Calculus · Derivatives
What is the derivative of \(f(x) = 3x^4 - 5x^2 + 7\)?
Correct Answer: A. Power rule: \(12x^3 - 10x\). The constant disappears.
Question 14
Calculus · Integrals
What is \(\displaystyle\int (6x^2 - 4x + 1)\,dx\)?
Correct Answer: C. Reverse power rule: \(2x^3 - 2x^2 + x + C\). Always add \(+ C\) for indefinite integrals.
Question 15
Calculus · Related Rates
A spherical balloon is being inflated so that its volume increases at a rate of \(10\pi\) cubic inches per second. When the radius is 5 inches, how fast is the radius increasing? (Volume of a sphere: \(V = \dfrac{4}{3}\pi r^3\))
Correct Answer: B. \(\dfrac{dV}{dt} = 4\pi r^2 \dfrac{dr}{dt}\). Sub in: \(10\pi = 100\pi\dfrac{dr}{dt}\). So \(\dfrac{dr}{dt} = \dfrac{1}{10}\) in/sec.
