Vida Tigrani John

Summary

"BTW, she's a rock star math tutor." "Thank you for showing me the divisibility by eleven proof." "I think you are FANTASTIC, I love your style of teaching and I so enjoy your humor." "My student really liked how you showed different ways to approach the problem and he told me multiple times that 'It never occurred to me, until Ms. Vida showed me, that problem can be approached in this way.'" “She proclaims you as the best math teacher ever and even for the first time says she likes math!” "This morning on the way to English he asked 'Mom, when do I get to meet again with Vida?'” “I’ve learned SO MUCH this year, thanks to you. Now some of the problems I thought looked SUPER SUPER hard are actually not as hard as I thought they would be!” "Your tutoring is reaping some awesome results -- not just in the actual tutoring but the pressure from not-us to get things done and not fall behind. Love it. Less nagging = less stressed mom." "Thank you for your enthusiasm and great work with these kids, they love working with you!" "Thanks for being such a fun and knowledgeable math teacher." "Thank you so much for always helping me with math. Without you and your guidance, I wouldn't be where I am today." "I think MathCounts is great and you’re great." "My youngest who isn't a math fan has become a fan of math in working with Vida." "Thank you. T. says you are an amazing teacher." "My daughter's confidence continues to grow as do her opinions about math. I think it is really great how she actually talks about math (no longer avoiding the subject)! Thank you." "Thank you for letting us learn more math through the contest. I have enjoyed solving and learning problems." "Thank you for being my teacher this year. I really appreciate the time and effort you spent teaching me math." "I am starting to realize that J's confidence really comes out when he can talk math with someone who actually understands him. We needed a tutor more than I realized!!" “Thank you so much for all that you’ve done for our mathletes.” "You work magic. Really." I prep students for MathCounts, AMC, and other math contests. I teach math using Art of Problem Solving (AoPS) curriculum exclusively.
