Introduction
I am a Harvard graduate with a degree in mathematics and a GPA of 3.93 and I have been teaching and tutoring math for over 19 years. I specialize in Calculus (AP Calculus AB/BC) and have helped hundreds of student master these subjects with clarity and confidence. Whether you are aiming for a perfect AP score, prepare for college entrance exams, or building a strong foundation in earlier math courses, I tailor every session to meet your unique goals and learning style. I offer expert instruction in: Algebra 1 and 2, Geometry, Precalculus, AP Calc AB/BC , SAT and ACT math, with nearly 2 decades of experience I have worked with students of all levels, from those struggling to keep up, to high achievers aiming for top tier colleges. My approach combines deep subject knowledge, patience, improving strategies to help students build real understanding, instead of just memorizing formulas. If you are looking for results driven, supportive tutor with an Ivy League credential and a passion for teaching math, I will love to help you succeed!

We hired Tutor Graciela to help my daughter with precalculus credit recovery, and she’s been amazing! She’s very responsive and provides detailed notes after each session. My daughter really enjoys her teaching style and feels much more confident in math now. The homework she assigns helps reinforce the material, and we’ve already seen great progress. Highly recommend!

Gra has been amazing for my son! From a child who “hated” math, and after a couple of weeks of tutoring, he said “I like math”. Gra challenges her students to think and work through mistakes. She is encouraging and patient and very easy to get along with instantly! My son says “ she is very patient, will only move on when the concept is mastered, easy to understand, super nice. Very knowledgeable as well and open to questions.”

In just one hour of working with Gra, she gave me the hope that I didn’t have of passing my calculus class. She broke down the basic details that made every part of the homework understandable and easy. I would recommend her as a tutor anytime.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly a pleasure working with you Emmanuella! Your attentiveness and willingness to listen made our sessions so productive. I’m proud of your progress and can’t wait to see how far you go—you’ve got so much potential!

Simply the BEST! My son had had 4 tutoring sessions. He actually LEARNS with Tutor Gra (better than his teacher). My son's teacher believes in NOT teaching prior to students completing HW on their own. Does not work for my son at all. After almost a full semester of struggling, I reached out to Tutor Gra. During the final week of the 2nd quarter, she met with him 3x. Reviewed the entire chapter with him to prepare for his test. He achieved 105% (best in class), and brought grade up to 'A'. She solved our problem. She knows her math, communicates effectively, and connects with her students. As an engineer myself, I could teach my son his Honors Alg2/Trig. However, with Tutor Gra -- it removes all the stress 😉. Worth every penny...
