Adam Powell
I am a professional tutor with over four years of teaching and tutoring experience. My specific expertise is TEACHING you the basic math you are working on, from algebra to calculus in an informal, and friendly setting. It's always my goal that my students feel like they are learning math from a friend while still gaining tangible results in their coursework.
I have been tremendously successful in reaching my students, whatever their mathematical capabilities may be. I've received tremendous feedback from both my classroom students and tutoring clients in regard to their subsequent successes in their math coursework.
My personal teaching ideology for mathematics is one of prioritizing contextual understanding above memorization or computation. When you can actually contextualize what you're doing, it all feels much more simple!

"Adam tutored my 3 kids over the summer for pre-algebra and pre-calculus. They have always had a math tutor over the summer to help them get ahead over the summer. Adam is leaps and bounds the kids favorite. They said that he just thinks outside of the box and gives a new perspective on math. They enjoyed their time with him and feel confident going into the school year. We are looking forward to working w him next summer."

"Adam tutored me day in and day out for two months when I was really struggling with my advanced placement algebra 2 class that I was essentially 9 weeks behind in. He was nothing but encouraging and patient with me as he took the time to not only help me with the material that I was struggling with currently, but also taking a step back and helping he really understand the concepts that I had missed previously.
Just in the two months that he tutored me, I went from failing every test with around a 40% to not only passing my first test with a 93% but also elevating me to a passing grade and even getting a B on the SEMESTER exam that covered the entire years worth of material. He was available as much as I was and more, including very late evenings and weekends despite also having a 30+ minute drive each way to and from our home. I cannot recommend Adam enough! He really made sure that I understood everything that we went over and was by far the best teacher I have ever had in any subject."

"He was genuinly interested in getting me to understand the content even if that meant going backwards and explaining things I should have already been thought, but wasnt. Hes kind and just a really genuine person and Id love the opportunity to work with him again"

"Having Powell as a tutor was amazing. From the very beginning, he was attentive and took the time to get to answer any questions I had. His teaching style is clear and concise, and he was able to break down complex mathematical concepts into simple, easy-to-understand steps. I appreciated that he didn't just give me the answers, but rather encouraged me to work through the problems on my own, with guidance and support along the way.
His patience and dedication are what make him such a great teacher. Thanks to him my math grades have improved significantly, and I feel much more comfortable with math. I would highly recommend this tutor."

​"I truly enjoyed Mr. Powell as my math tutor. Hes been one of the best math teachers Ive ever had. Mr. Powell helped me and bunch of other students while we were struggling in Pre-Calculus. His teaching style matched my learning style and he always made sure no student was left behind. Ive always struggled with math but he helped teach me that math is for everyone. I was failing Pre-Calculus before he started tutoring me and after the semester ended, I finished with an A. I highly recommended Mr. Powell, you wont be disappointed."

I used Powell’s math tutoring, and it made everything much clearer. I was very stressed at first, but he explained everything. He made sure I understand, and he made it all connect for me. I highly recommend using Powell math tutoring.
