Matt G.
Matt is a Miami native, software engineer and tutor who loves showing students that math can actually make sense, and can even be fun. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Computer Science from the University of Florida in 2025, where he took Calculus 1 through 3, Statistics and Physics. Today he works full time as a Software Engineer, where breaking big problems into small, solvable steps is part of the job, and it’s exactly how he approaches tutoring. At UF, Matt was a teaching assistant for Programming Fundamentals 2 and a mentor in his fraternity’s mentorship program, and he has tutored elementary, middle and high school students in math and reading. He works with students in middle school math, Algebra, Geometry and introductory Physics. Matt believes most students who feel “bad at math” are just missing a building block or two. He tracks down those gaps, explains the why behind every step, and keeps sessions relaxed and upbeat. His goal is to be a mentor and a friend that students actually look forward to seeing each week, not one more hour of homework they dread. When he’s not tutoring or coding, Matt is building side projects, apps and websites, geeking out over the latest in AI, cheering on the Gators on Saturdays and the Dolphins on Sundays, and spending time with friends, family and his dog, Sid, who loves cuddling and playing fetch.
