About Maya
I recently graduated from Rice University with a degree in Business Finance and a minor in Entrepreneurship. During my time in college, I developed a strong analytical foundation and a structured approach to problem-solving, which I now bring into my tutoring.
I have prior experience working with students both in-person at Kumon in Paramus and online through a volunteer tutoring organization called Million Reasons. These experiences helped me learn how to adapt my teaching style to different learning needs, whether a student benefits from step-by-step guidance, extra repetition, or alternative explanations. I have also been a camp counselor multiple times and I am passionate about working with and teaching kids.
In terms of academic background, I have studied advanced mathematics including Linear Algebra and Differential Equations, which has given me a strong grasp of mathematical thinking and logic. This allows me to confidently teach subjects such as Algebra, Pre-Algebra, and elementary math while breaking down complex ideas into clear, understandable steps.

My teaching approach is relaxed, patient, and personalized to each student. I focus on making math feel less intimidating by breaking concepts into simple, manageable steps and encouraging students to ask questions comfortably. I believe students learn best when they understand why something works rather than just memorizing formulas.
A typical lesson starts with reviewing any homework questions or topics the student is struggling with. Then, I explain the concept step-by-step, work through practice problems together, and gradually let the student solve problems independently while I guide them when needed. I also adapt lessons based on the student’s pace and learning style. I like to demonstrate with games to make for a more fun, engaging session and repeat problems until the student understands the concept.
I try my best to create a low-pressure environment where students can build confidence without feeling judged. I aim to make lessons interactive, supportive, and easy to follow, especially for students who may feel anxious or frustrated with math.
My lessons are for pre-elementary, elementary, middle school, and high school students, including those taking elementary arithmetic, pre-algebra, and algebra courses. I especially enjoy helping students who want extra support, need help catching up in class, or want to strengthen their math foundations.

Maya tutored my daughter during summer break in various math topics to get her ready for 4th grade. She was patient and really organized her lessons to be fun and engaging. My daughter WANTED to go to teach tutoring session -- something we've never experienced before. She'd ask us, "When can we go to tutoring again?"
Maya has been tutoring my 12-year old son, Robbie, in math for the last year. She has been amazing and I have to say Robbie has thrived under her guidance. He is also less shy to ask questions in his math classes when he does not understand a problem or when his teacher is moving too fast. I highly recommend Maya to anyone looking for a fantastic tutor. - Barbara
