Trigonometry Tutor in Burleson, TX and surrounding areas.

Steve is a private trigonometry tutor in Burleson, TX and surrounding areas serving high school students and college-bound students. He teaches sine, cosine, tangent, the unit circle, identities, graphing, and more.

What does trigonometry tutoring cover?

  • Right-triangle trig: SOH-CAH-TOA (an acronym for remembering trig ratios), special triangles.
  • The unit circle and radian measure.
  • Sine, cosine, tangent, and their reciprocals.
  • Trig identities: Pythagorean, sum and difference, double angle.
  • Graphing trig functions: amplitude, period, phase shift.
  • Inverse trig functions and equations.
  • Law of sines and law of cosines.

Trig as college prep

Trigonometry is the half of pre-calculus most students underestimate. Students who arrive at calculus without solid trig understanding spend most of the first semester playing catch-up. Steve focuses on the building blocks that calculus assumes you already know: the unit circle from memory, comfort with identities, and confidence reading and graphing trig functions.

For a fuller pre-calculus track, see pre-calculus or jump ahead to calculus. The prerequisite is usually Algebra 2 or geometry.

Common trigonometry questions

Is trigonometry the same as pre-calculus?
Not exactly. Trigonometry is a subject of its own that is sometimes folded into Algebra 2 or Pre-Calculus, depending on the school. Pre-Calculus is broader: it includes trig, but also functions, limits, sequences, and series. If your student is taking trig as a standalone class, the focus is on the trig identities, the unit circle, and graphing trig functions.
Will I need trig in college?
If you go into anything STEM or STEM-adjacent (engineering, physics, computer science, architecture, or any quantitative major), yes. Even non-STEM students often hit trig in a math placement test. Solid trig fluency makes calculus easier and saves you from retaking remedial math in college.
