Why Does Math Cause Anxiety?

Math anxiety affects up to 30% of students, far more than other subjects. 

Unlike history or English, math requires mastering earlier skills to tackle new topics. Gaps from past classes lead to repeated struggles, making students feel they’re “not good at math.” Each upcoming test feels scarier, their confidence wanes, and they fall further behind.

The real issue is a combination of fear, negative self-image, and knowledge gaps, not ability. Our tutors help students fill these gaps, rebuilding confidence and skills, as our success stories show.

What People Are Saying:

“Stephanie has been a terrific tutor for our seventh grader in math and science. Her patience and understanding built confidence, and she made both subjects fun.

Our daughter discovered that she enjoys both subjects, which has been great to see.

We can’t recommend Stephanie highly enough!”

“Kathleen, the manager, is both super responsive and an excellent listener. She really helps you get set up with the right tutor, based on your child’s needs.

LUCKY for us we were referred to the WONDERFUL Andrea for support with Physics (midway through Senior year, no less). Andrea was super supportive and kind throughout, and an EXCELLENT teacher for my daughter. ”

“This tutoring service is simply the best.

My cynical, high school Freshman has gone from lacking in confidence in math and dreading tutoring, to a self starter who loves the sessions and is showing true skill in the subject.

This is something I truly thought I would never say.“

Emma G.

“We really want to thank you from the bottoms of our hearts for all the great work you’ve done with our daughter this year. She has grown SO much in her confidence in this subject, and her teacher has told us she’s seen a noticeable improvement.

Her last report card showed that she’s now at “above grade level” for math. We are so, so grateful to you for helping her get on track. “
