AP Calc AB feels hard because of the algebra underneath it. Let’s fix that.
You don’t learn Shakespeare by opening the plays cold — you learn the language first, and then they read like English. Calculus is the same. Most students who struggle in AP Calc aren’t bad at calculus; they’re tripping over the algebra, functions, and trig inside every problem. I find those exact gaps, fix them, and coach you through this week’s class at the same time.

Just got a test back you didn’t expect
You studied, it still went badly, and you’re not sure why.
Homework takes forever
Every problem turns into an hour of Googling the algebra inside it.
Aiming for a 5 in May
You want to turn “keeping up” into “staying ahead” before the exam.
This semester, pick your version
Same student. Same class. Two completely different semesters.
Leaving the gaps alone
- ✕ Every new topic leans on algebra that isn’t solid, so each week gets harder.
- ✕ Homework drags past midnight; you’re Googling every other problem.
- ✕ Test grades slip, and “not a math person” starts to sound true.
- ✕ May arrives and you’re cramming a year you never really learned.
Fixing the foundation now
- ✓ The gaps underneath get found and fixed — and the calculus starts making sense.
- ✓ Homework gets quicker, because the algebra inside it is automatic.
- ✓ Tests stop being surprises: you’ve already taken one just like it.
- ✓ You reach the exam building on mastery — not scrambling to catch up.

“Why would I hire a 22-year-old instead of a licensed teacher?”
Fair question. Here’s the honest answer.
Hi — I’m Ryan. I just graduated from Villanova University with a degree in applied quantitative finance and a minor in mathematics, and I now work full-time in a job where this math is literally what I do all day. I’m not building this company because I need to — I’m building it because I’ve tutored since high school, I was an AP Calculus AB teaching assistant, and walking a student from “I don’t get it” to “wait, that’s actually easy” is the thing I’d miss most. That’s also why I’m starting with scholarships: I want to prove it works before I charge for it.
A licensed teacher is trained to run a classroom of thirty. That’s not what this is. This is 1-on-1 coaching in the exact subjects I’ve gone deepest on — years of tutoring high-school algebra, geometry, and precalc (the exact foundation AP Calc is built on), then TA-ing AP Calc AB and watching, up close, precisely where students fall off the cliff. And I took this class recently enough to remember what it feels like to not get it — I teach the way I wish it had been explained to me, not the way it reads in a textbook.
Villanova grad
Applied quantitative finance, math minor — working in a career built on this exact math.
AP Calc AB TA
I’ve coached real students through this exact course and know where every one of them gets stuck.
Years of tutoring
Algebra, geometry, and precalc since high school — the exact foundation the Repair Track fixes.
Here because I love it
Full-time job, tutoring by choice — which is why spots are capped.
You’re not hiring a credential. You’re hiring the person who just walked the path your student is walking now — and who’s obsessed enough with math to spend his evenings helping them walk it faster.
Questions, answered
What’s the Founding Scholarship, and why is it free?
I’m launching, and real results from real students are worth more to me right now than 4 tuitions. Scholars get 8 weeks of the program — the diagnostic, two private sessions, the Foundation Repair Track, Test Sprints, and the video vault — free. In return, they do the work and give honest feedback I can share, always labeled as coming from a free scholarship.
How does the $100 deposit work?
Selected students put down $100 before the kickoff session. Attend both sessions and finish the assigned practice on time for all 8 weeks, and I refund the full $100. It’s there so every spot goes to a student who’ll actually use it.
Who gets picked, and when will I hear back?
Applications close Friday, October 2. I read every one and pick the 4 students I think I can help most — in AP Calc AB now, struggling or anxious, with a parent in the loop. Everyone hears back within a few days. Taking the free Readiness Check gets you priority.
What happens after the 8 weeks?
Scholars get first access to The 16-Week AP Calc Turnaround when paid enrollment opens in January 2027 — before the waitlist.
My student is already behind. Is it too late?
No. Most students who struggle in AP Calc are missing algebra, functions, or trig underneath it — and those gaps are fixable mid-semester. Sooner is better, though: the first marking period closes in a few weeks in most districts.
What does the full Turnaround cost, and when does it open?
$1,497, or 4 payments of $397, for 16 weeks. Paid enrollment opens in January 2027, capped at 6 students. It comes with a 14-day no-questions refund and a Do-the-Work Guarantee: attend every session and finish every assigned practice set on time, and if the class grade hasn’t risen at least one letter (or reached a B) by week 16, I keep coaching for free until it does (through the end of the school year).
Is it online or in person?
100% online. Live coaching over video, plus your own dashboard with practice, solution videos, and progress tracking.
