Welcome to Mathhead Tutoring!

Learning mathematics should be easier.

Even calculus has easy parts and still, the struggle is real and nauseating. So much so that the general public easily proclaims: “I’m not a math person.” It should not be this way!

Well, we are happy to proclaim that math is beautiful. The “beauty of math” is that there are so many patterns that make math easier to learn that 50 or 60 minutes of learning feels like 10 minutes. The patterns are so clear that we can teach second semester calculus to students as young as six years old. Yes, Mathhead did that! Here’s more:

  • The six-year-old calculus student, Madison, finished her junior year in high school with all of her college credits in math complete.
  • Dani was our youngest algebra student at 4 years old, finished high school with all but one of her college math credits complete.
  • Joel had never earned better than a D in any math class but, in his thirties, aced Intermediate and College Algebra.
  • Hannah, our youngest student at 2 1/2, worked with us through 5 years old and scored in the 95th percentile for kids her age in math.
  • In the history of a certain private high school, Brooke earned the highest scored on their entrance exam.

These results may seem extraordinary, but these results are typical for Mathhead students and all anyone needs is the ability to count. There is hope! In addition to better math grades, grades in other subjects improve, too!

Our Specialty: Calculus By and For Young People (a.k.a Math for the Constantly Curious Kid)

We have a great deal of respect for the ability of young people to learn challenging subjects.  We enjoy teaching Calculus By and For Young People to kids while they’re at their highest level of curiosity and willingness to learn. They have refreshing insights and make exciting discoveries while doing lots of arithmetic with integers, fractions, and decimals. As they visualize math, look for patterns, and learn multiple ways to solve problems and write numbers, they will gain confidence and enjoy a deep sense of accomplishment.

None of this would be possible without Our Beloved Mathman”, Don Cohen (1930-2015). It is the same program that Don taught to his students in Champaign, IL, for nearly 40 years. He ever so generously handed the math program to us. We hope to expand your children’s minds for at least as long as he did!
