Hi, I’m Vickie Barone (she/her). Math has been a focus of mine since I was a small child, and was always my favorite subject in school. I have a Bachelor’s in Mathematics from the University of Notre Dame and a Master's in Mathematics from Fairfield University. My extensive education makes me qualified, but it's my deep understanding of concepts and my ability to relate to people that have my students sticking with me for years.

During my twenty years as a math tutor, I've worked with students of all ages, from young children to adults. The majority of my clients are high school students, working on Algebra, Geometry, Precalculus, Calculus, and Statistics. I also help with ACT and SAT preparation.

My goal is to support students as they build their confidence, explaining even the toughest concepts in accessible ways. I believe that everyone is capable of learning math; yet, I know that each student is unique. I carefully consider my students’ needs and learning styles as we work together. I especially love to help students manage common issues like math anxiety and the tendency to make simple technical errors.

Working with me will improve grades and test scores, deepen a student’s understanding of mathematical concepts, and make math less of a struggle. Together we can overcome math anxiety and ensure students perform at their highest possible level! 

My services are LGBTQIA+ and homeschool/unschool friendly! Happy to meet students where they are, at any step along their journey to math understanding, without judgment!
