Westminster Math Tutoring in Atlanta

Personalized, in-home math tutoring for students at The Westminster Schools. AnyThink identifies the gaps beneath a student’s current struggles, rebuilds their mathematical foundation step by step, and teaches them to approach unfamiliar problems independently.

Serving Westminster families in Buckhead, Chastain Park, Sandy Springs, and surrounding Atlanta communities.

Math Support for Westminster’s Rigorous Coursework

Westminster students are expected to engage deeply with challenging material, and advanced math courses can move quickly. When an earlier concept has not been fully understood, even a capable student may struggle as new material builds on top of it.

AnyThink does more than help students finish the next assignment. We determine where their understanding first broke down, reinforce the concepts underneath their current course, and help them develop methods they can carry into future mathematics classes.

Advanced Math Tutoring:

We provide tutoring across all high school and college-level mathematics, including the advanced courses offered at The Westminster Schools. Our team includes tutors with mathematics degrees and experience supporting some of Westminster’s most demanding courses, including Honors Precalculus & Introduction to Calculus, AP Calculus BC, and Honors Multivariable Calculus, as well as Georgia Tech dual-enrollment courses such as Combinatorics and Differential Equations.

Many families come to us after working with tutors who were unable to support these higher-level courses. We have taught Westminster students and understand not only how to solve the problems they encounter, but how to teach the underlying material. Our teaching methods extend well beyond high school coursework into upper-level college mathematics.

Westminster Parent and Student Testimonials

Mother of Elizabeth Reid

“We tried four Precalculus tutors before a friend introduced us to Jacob. All of the tutors before Jacob tried to teach to the AP exam, but Westminster doesn’t offer AP Precalculus, so its teachers aren’t teaching toward an exam. Pace students are in the same boat. Therefore, you need someone who can take the concepts the teacher has taught thus far and help your child not only learn them, but truly understand them so they can apply them in different scenarios on tests. Jacob is the best!”

“My entire life, I’ve had the mindset that I’m just bad at math and nothing could change that. That all changed sophmore year when Jake started tutoring me. I was a solid C plus/B minus math student who struggled with concepts that I felt as though I should have been understanding and that was so frustrating for me.

Meeting with Jake once a week changed how I felt about math for the better. I turned into an A/A+ math student and I even started to enjoy math, which was something I never thought was possible for me. As Jake got to know me and my learning style, he found the perfect way to teach me math in a way that made sense to me.

I’m forever grateful for the help Jake gave me through the past few years and I would recommend his tutoring services to anyone and everyone! The skills he taught me carried onto taking the ACT and now into college. I feel more confident than ever when doing any type of math and I wouldn’t be where I am without Jake!”

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Sessions begin with the material the student is currently learning. As we review the student’s work and listen to their reasoning, we identify earlier concepts that may be interfering with the new material. Those gaps are addressed alongside the current course so the student does not continue encountering the same difficulty in different forms.

  • When it’s necessary, yes. Homework assignments are often easier than tests. We present our students with problems significantly more complex than the ones they are used to seeing to ensure a complete understanding of each concept. Oftentimes, assignments may not include enough repetition for a student to truly grasp the unit, making it difficult to isolate what they aren’t understanding. Our tutors provide additional problem sets, written by Jacob Busby, when a concept needs to be more closely examined.

  • AnyThink supports students throughout Westminster’s mathematics curriculum, from foundational high school courses through Honors Precalculus & Introduction to Calculus, AP Calculus BC, and Honors Multivariable Calculus. Our tutors also work with Westminster students taking Georgia Tech courses such as Combinatorics and Differential Equations. These courses require significantly more understanding than standard high school mathematics.

  • The amount and pace of improvement depend on the student’s starting grade, the extent of the underlying gaps, how often we meet consistently, and how many graded assignments remain in the course. Many AnyThink students have improved by one or two letter grades over the course of a semester, with some making more substantial turnarounds. A student may begin demonstrating stronger understanding within the first few sessions, but the course average usually takes longer to change because it includes work completed before tutoring began. After several sessions, we can give the family a more informed assessment of what improvement is realistic and how long it may take.

  • Students meet at the same reserved time once a week. A consistent schedule allows us to identify issues before they surface and anticipate which concepts may cause difficulty based on the student’s strengths and weaknesses. Students with substantial gaps or an immediate course concern may meet more frequently for a short period of time.

  • We provide in-home tutoring for Westminster families throughout Buckhead, Vinings, Sandy Springs, and surrounding Atlanta communities. Meeting at home allows the student to work on their course materials without adding another commute to the school day.

  • Our first session introduces foundational concepts to assist in what the student is already learning. During this initial session, we learn what concepts are strong and what concepts might be holding a student back. These deficits are addressed in tandem with the current course.
