I am a former math teacher and I have taught all math subjects through Calculus 1. I have been tutoring for over 20 years with consistent results! I pride myself on keeping up with the latest methods to make math easy. My approach to tutoring is founded on one simple concept - UNDERSTANDING! Showing a student how to work a specific problem is not the answer to mastering the material. I teach the how's and why's of the problem, so they will be able to solve it themselves, and transfer that kn...

My son, who is in college, was having great difficulty with calculus. After working with Pamela for only two sessions he increased his grade from 50s and 60s to a 98!! She has made a huge difference in his understanding of the subject. He really enjoys working with her, saying she is patient and very nice!

Pamela is an outstanding tutor. My 9th grader was struggling with algebra and had his final coming up in a few days. Pamela was easy to reach and willing to schedule several sessions with my son on very short notice. Over 3 sessions she was able to dramatically improve his ability in algebra which led to a dramatic increase in his confidence. With Pamela's help, my son was able to make a high "B" on his final. Pamela is very patient and my son took to her immediately. She is able to explain math in a very easy manner which made all the difference for my son. I cannot recommend her highly enough!

Pam has been so helpful to my daughter. She is patient, flexible and understands how to communicate so that it is clear what she is teaching. I would recommend her to anyone needing help.


Nicol P. from Birmingham, AL

I am pleased to report that my daughter finished the year with an A in advanced Algebra I with Pamela's help. My husband and I are very pleased. My daughter has also regained her confidence with math.


Charlie M. from Trussville, AL

After last year's math, I knew I needed help with precal. I found Pamela and have been meeting with her five weeks now. Pamela is very easy to get in touch with. A couple of times I was able to set an appointment at the last moment. Pamela has been patient and explains the lesson well. At this point I have a "B" average.


Payge C. from Birmingham, AL

Pamela helped my daughter study for her Algebra II test which was the next day. Having someone confirm that she knows the material was a big comfort to my daughter. I wish we had done this sooner.


Heather T. from Mc Calla, AL

Pamela is an amazing tutor and I cannot say enough positive things about her and my tutoring experience. Pamela helped me prepare for the GRE. She had a lot of work to do. I am terrible at math and I thought that I would never be prepared for the Quantitative section. She was patient, kind and when I didn't understand something, she would go above and beyond to break it down for me so that I got a good grasp of the information we were working on. I never left a tutoring session, that I didn't feel accomplished and successful. Thanks to Pamela's help, I was able to bring my Quantitative score up by 10 points from my original practice scores. I truly cannot recommend Pamela enough. She is a joy to work, so patient, and helpful. She works with your schedule and makes herself available through email during the week. She is a gem!

My daughter has met with Pamela twice and will call her again. She was on time and efficient. She explains things well and gave my daughter some confidence.


Joyce R. from Birmingham, AL

My daughter loved her tutor session with Pamela. For the first time she actually said I can't believe Alg. 2 is really that easy, because Pamela was able to really help her understand it! Within an hour, she went from discouraged, to excited about Alg. 2 w/ trig.! Thank you!


Julie S. from Birmingham, AL

Pamela tutors both of my girls in math. One daughter is a 10th grader taking Geometry and the other is a 7th grader in Pre-Algebra. Pamela is always readily available when we need tutoring and responds quickly when I contact her. My girls enjoy their time with her. She is patient and very knowledgeble in all areas of math. We could not be more pleased!


Donna A. from Birmingham, AL

Pamela was able to quickly pinpoint the areas of prealgebra weakness for my son. He was able to use her tips to catch up on several assignments that he did not understand.


Hunter W. from Birmingham, AL

Pamela is a fantastic Calculus tutor. I went to her as I was struggling with calculus and she was immediately able to help improve my grade. After almost two months with her, my last test score has improved by almost two letter grades and I am now feeling confident for my final exam. She is very nice and knows multiple ways to approach and teach certain topics so that if you don't understand or connect with one approach, then you will with the other. I recommend her for anyone needing calculus help


Beverly F. from Birmingham, AL

I have to tell everyone-I cannot stand math in almost any form. I had to take Algebra as a course requirement. I am late in life returning to school to add to the issue. Well, then came Pamela P. I have been able to not only grasp complicated concepts but to actually look forward to working on them! I give Pamela P a five star rating with an exponent of 10! (Yes,now I can make math jokes!) I have excelled in my course work and my grade went up two levels. It is time well spent. Don't struggle alone, get help. Get Pamela P.


LaKisha W. from Birmingham, AL

I thoroughly enjoyed my session with Pamela! She explained every step with patience and encouragement. I am feeling confident that I will overcome my fear of math and score nicely on the GRE. I look forward to my next session.


William B. from Birmingham, AL

Pamela is a wonderful tutor. She is very patient and is great with students. She is always polite and communicates very well. She really knows the material as well. I have been completely satisfied with her efforts with my daughter. Her assistance and tutoring has been vital to my daughters success in advanced math this year! I would recommend her completely! You will be very pleased!


Karlie T. from Trussville, AL

Pam is very kind & patient, and teaches in a way that my daughter can relate to subject matter. She said, "she teaches me different ways to look at specific problems, not just, that's just how it has to be done."


Heather O. from Chelsea, AL

My son was very pleased with the help he received from Pamela. He said she was easy to understand and easy to work with.


Beth H. from Birmingham, AL

Pamela is a very experienced tutor. After struggling a whole 9-weeks. she was able to re-teach all the difficult Algebra 2/Trig. concepts to my child & he was able to make an A on his semester final. AMAZING! This is our first experience with a tutor & I am so thankful we chose Mrs. Pamela from all the choices available to us. She has a talent for teaching talent & knowledge to make very hard concepts attainable!


Deborah R. from Birmingham, AL

Ms Pamela was excellent with my daughter in preparing her for her precalculus exam. My daughter felt confident & very well prepared ! After their meeting she immediately texted me to say "I really like her a lot!"
