About Us
Our Story
In Fall 2024, a shared vision between Dr. Liu, Aaron Nelson, and Lucas Baum gave birth to Plus Math. Their goal? To revolutionize the way students experience mathematics through accessible, no-cost tutoring.
What started as a conversation about making mathematics more approachable has blossomed into a vibrant community of learners and tutors, all united under one mission: to make quality math education available to every K-12 student.
Our Mission
Plus Math is more than just a tutoring service - it's a movement to transform mathematics from a barrier into a bridge. We believe that every student deserves access to quality math support, completely free of charge. Whether you're learning addition or tackling calculus, our community is here to help you succeed.
