Private Tutoring by Steve

Geometry Tutor in Burleson, TX.

Steve is a private geometry tutor in Burleson, TX who works one-on-one with high school students. He covers proofs, theorems, angles, triangles, circles, area, volume, and the visual reasoning that makes geometry click.

What does geometry tutoring cover?

  • Points, lines, planes, and angle relationships.
  • Triangle congruence and similarity.
  • Two-column and paragraph proofs.
  • Quadrilaterals and other polygons.
  • Circles: arcs, chords, tangents, and inscribed angles.
  • Area, surface area, and volume of 2D and 3D figures.
  • Coordinate geometry and basic transformations.

Why geometry feels different from algebra

Algebra rewards procedural fluency. Geometry rewards a different skill: the ability to look at a figure, name what is true about it, and chain those facts into a proof. Plenty of strong algebra students stumble on geometry not because they got worse at math but because the game changed. Tutoring closes that gap by teaching the structure of geometric thinking explicitly.

How Steve teaches proofs

Slowly, out loud, with the diagram in front of both of you. Steve says what the given information is, what is being asked, and which theorems and postulates are available. Then together you choose the next step and write it down. Once a student watches a few proofs assembled this way, they can usually do them on their own.

The next steps after geometry are usually Algebra 2 (in some sequences) and trigonometry.

Common geometry questions

Why is my child good at algebra, but bad at geometry?
Geometry asks for a different kind of thinking. Algebra is symbolic and procedural. Geometry is visual and proof-based. A student who is fine with equations can still struggle when the homework is a two-column proof or a problem about angle relationships in a circle. The fix is usually to slow down on the proof structure and the diagrams.
How do you teach geometry proofs?
Steve treats proofs the way they actually work: as a chain of justifications. He starts with the given information, what is being asked, and which theorems are on the table. Then he builds the steps out loud with the student so they see how to choose which postulate or theorem to apply. Most students stop fearing proofs once they see the structure clearly.
