Recommendation for 11th grade math tutor?

[Anonymous]

My DD is struggling in her 11th grade math class and both parents are useless in this area. Any recommendations for a good tutor? My DD is struggling a bit with virtual learning so I would prefer someone willing to tutor in person in NW DC (we would get tested, wear masks, etc.). If not, DD will manage with a getting tutored virtually. Recommendations are greatly appreciated.

Reach out to the Math Department at Georgetown and get a college tutor.

LS Tutors, run by Lori Solovy, a former MCPS teacher, is great. Lori is extremely responsive and her tutors have been top notch.

Have you asked the current math teacher? They may have a suggestion or even be willing to assist. Our county has a tutor list. You could reach out to the guidance counselor and the public library also.

You've had excellent recommendations OP I was going to say the same about approaching schools / existing teachers for names.

Whatever you do, don't try any on wyzant. We went this route to great cost and all of their 5 star tutors were terrible, made mistakes, used completely different forms of math and didn't know anything about the MCPS curriculum.

for half their price we have a HS Math teacher working with our kids from MCPS.

Interesting! I was just about to recommend Wyzant. We've had great luck there with multiple tutors in different disciplines. Also, it is great to get non-DC rates on tutors.

Also, "All of their 5 star tutors"? How many math tutors did you try?
