Our Tutors
David Saldana
Hello! My name is David, and I’m a high school math teacher with over three years of tutoring experience. I graduated from Florida International University with a Bachelor of Science in Mathematical Sciences. From experience, I understand that math can be a challenging subject for many students, but with my passion for math, I understand the subject at a foundational level and encourage this in students to achieve success in their academic careers. As a fierce advocate for equity and social justice, I am dedicated to creating a safe and welcoming learning environment for all my students, understanding of any and all learning barriers that they may face. All this considered, I strive to create the best possible learning experience and facilitate growth, curiosity, and success.

Tiffany Chung
Hello, I'm Tiffany Chung, and I'm passionate about education. With six years of teaching experience under my belt, I've had the privilege of shaping young minds both in middle school and, currently, high school geometry. My journey in education began with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Florida International University, and I further honed my expertise with a master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, specializing in mathematics, from Florida Gulf Coast University. When I'm not in the classroom, you can find me enjoying quality time with my family or immersing myself in the latest films. I'm also a big fan of community events, always on the lookout for exciting happenings in town. I'm committed to empowering students with a strong foundation in mathematics and fostering a love for learning. Let's explore the world of education together and create a brighter future!
Eduardo Evaristo
I am a mechanical (BS from UCF) and biomedical engineer (MS from Politecnico di Milano). For the past 8+ years I have worked with hundreds of students all over the world helping them with all-level math, SAT/ACT/GRE/GMAT/IELTS/TOEFL prep, and foreign languages (Spanish, French, and Italian). I have also worked developing medical devices to treat everyday diseases. I love all racket sports and language learning (working on my 7th now!).
Bryan Gatto
Hello, I’m Bryan Gatto. I received a BS in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Miami and an ME in Biomedical Engineering from the University of Florida. I have a diverse history in education. I worked as a tutor during my undergraduate studies, focusing in math and physics. I worked as a Teaching Assistant in my graduate studies, covering circuit design and building, and I’ve worked as a high school teacher; teaching robotics, computer science, and calculus. Now I’m working as a full-time tutor because I enjoy seeing individual students light up when they understand a new concept that they were unsure of before. In my free time I enjoy motorcycle riding and watching movies.

It was at Florida Atlantic University where I received my Masters degree with a specialty in Mathematics. I have a wide range of experience tutoring elementary subjects, middle school subjects, and high school subjects such as Algebra, English, Writing, test prep and college math. The thing I love the most about tutoring is seeing students succeed and in persevere in the toughest of times!
