Anyone have a tutor they could recommend for honors precalc?

I don’t other than a service. Make sure the person also tutors Calc because Honors Pre Calc is much more advanced than many realize so don’t use someone who tops out at pre Calc.

I think you can get a list of MCPS teachers who tutor from your kid's math teacher. Just need to find someone outside your school.

I presume you are looking for now? I ask because my son is a college math major looking into tutoring over the summer. He’s not local until May.
If it matters, he aced AP math classes- 5s, and really loves math. He tutored during HS as his NHS service.

At what point do you finally get a tutor?

When you think you don't have a strong teacher and realize the curriculum stucks and/or when your child is struggling/asking for help.

Do they have a shortage of math teachers? Is it AP curriculum? At what letter grade is "struggling"?

In some situations, it is not the student needing a tutor. A teacher is not good at teaching the subject. A few students we knew had a teacher who instead of actually teaching during class, was focused on making unnecessarily difficult questions for a quiz/test, making and or changing test questions up until the last minute before an assessment to make different versions of the test giving students even less time to complete the test, or creating situations where students were forced to come to the teacher practically begging for clarification and questions about a quiz grade afterwards. Even the advanced students. Had the students had a more competent, organized and drama-free teacher, it could have changed the experience for the students wanting to study the subject in the next grade or beyond in college. Who knows, one of them may have majored in Spanish Lit?
