Course concepts
Revisit ideas that were covered too quickly, explained unclearly, or not fully understood the first time.
Academic Math Tutoring
Academic tutoring for the course the student is taking now, from daily assignments and difficult concepts to exam preparation, advanced material, and gaps in foundational skills.
Submitted materials are reviewed in advance, and sessions are planned around the student’s current priorities. Current coursework is addressed while also building the understanding and problem-solving skills needed to work more independently over time.
Areas of support
Revisit ideas that were covered too quickly, explained unclearly, or not fully understood the first time.
Work through current problems with an emphasis on reasoning and method, so the student can apply the same ideas independently.
Identify what to review, practice relevant question types, and prepare for unfamiliar wording and variations.
Strengthen prerequisite skills in algebra, functions, notation, and quantitative reasoning that the current course depends on.
Receive in-depth support for AP and IB courses, IB internal assessments, exam preparation, and advanced high school or college math.
Learn to choose an approach, explain the reasoning, check the result, and try a different method when the first one does not work.
How it works
Tutoring may be ongoing or focused on a specific unit, exam, or demanding period. The schedule and priorities are based on the student’s goals, course demands, and availability.
Provide the course details, current priorities, upcoming dates, scheduling needs, and any concerns you would like to discuss.
Send notes, assignments, study guides, graded work, or upcoming test information so the material can be reviewed before the session.
Kennedy teaches, questions, observes, and adjusts the session around the student’s understanding rather than a generic lesson script.
The focus can change as new topics, assignments, and tests arise, while longer-term gaps and problem-solving skills continue to be addressed.
Choosing a service
Students preparing specifically for the SAT or ACT can choose SAT & ACT Math Preparation as a separate service.
Premium Mathematics Tutoring may focus on academic math, AP/IB preparation, SAT/ACT preparation, or a combination. It begins with an Initial Mathematical Assessment and includes advance planning, ongoing progress analysis, and regular parent reviews with specific recommendations.
