About Misha
I have always loved doing Mathematics and enjoy helping others to understand it better. I began tutoring around 1985 when I began college. From 1985 to 1988, I tutored at SUNY New Paltz and Dutchess Community College. I helped college students learn Math for Elementary School Teachers, College Algebra, Geometry, Calculus 1, 2, and 3. I graduated in 1988 with an AA in Mathematics. I then was tutoring through the Arlington School District as a Home Teacher until 1994. Students who could not go to school I taught them all their subjects at their homes. The students ranged from 1st to 12th grade. In 1994 I moved to Arizona and was a Private Tutor for Math students in Sedona. In 1995 to 1996 I lived in Alaska. I also did Private tutoring there in Mathematics. One of my students was enrolled at the University of Alaska at Fairbanks. I tutored him in Differential Equations.
When I returned to NY in 1996, I resumed work as a Home Teacher for the Arlington School District for another 2 years plus continued to tutor Mathematics as a Private Tutor. I enjoy helping students understand math better. I try to create problems related to my students' interests to make math easier to relate to and also fun to learn. I especially find it gratifying when I am able to help students increase their math grades.
I was a straight A student in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Calculus 1, Calculus 2, Calculus 3, Differential Equations, and Physics 1 & 2. I earned an Associates of Arts degree in Mathematics from Dutchess Community College in Poughkeepsie, NY with a GPA of 3.93. I also earned a BA in Psychology (minor Anthropology) from State University of New York (SUNY) at New Paltz (Magna Cum Laude Honors).
Currently I am tutoring students in Basic Math (Pre-algebra), Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, Precalculus, and SAT/ACT Prep (Math section only).

My students notice an improvement in their grades and overall comprehension of Mathematics. Each student has a unique learning style and I adapt my lessons to the needs of each student.
Currently I have about 8 middle school students in Prealgebra, 6 high school students in Algebra 1, 4 high school students in Algebra 2, 1 student in Geometry, 1 taking Precalculus/Intro to Calculus and a GED student. Last year before COVID I had many students in SAT and ACT prep but those exams got cancelled because of the pandemic so I have not had any requests for tutoring in SAT or ACT since March 2020.
