How Ibee teaches
With Ibee, solving a problem is a conversation. He asks students to explain how they are thinking, works through the sticking points with them and then has them try the method themselves.
- Use the baseline and homework review to decide what needs attention next.
- Break difficult ideas into manageable steps, using familiar examples when terminology gets in the way.
- Ask students to walk back through a solution in their own words before moving on.
Who he works well with
- Students who like to talk through their reasoning, then try a problem for themselves.
- Students building their foundations or working toward a demanding test-score goal.
- Younger students looking for support in school subjects, as well as high school students preparing for entrance exams.

More about Ibee
Since 2015, Ibee Feddy has spent more than 7,000 hours tutoring over 400 students. His experience spans school subjects and entrance exams, including the ACT, SAT®, PSAT, SSAT, ISEE and HSPT.
His sessions are built around a running conversation. He starts by getting to know the student and their goals, then uses the baseline to decide where to focus. Later sessions begin with a look at the student’s practice between meetings. They work through problems together before the student takes the lead.
Math is a particular strength. Ibee breaks complicated questions into smaller steps and looks for examples that make the underlying idea easier to grasp. To explain why order matters in a permutation, for instance, he has used the idea of a password. He asks students to walk back through their reasoning, giving them a chance to check their understanding and him a chance to catch what still needs work.
His students have ranged from younger learners building foundations to high achievers pursuing ambitious test scores. He earned his B.S. in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the University of Maryland, Baltimore County, in 2015.
Away from tutoring, Ibee is a sports fan whose teams include Chelsea Football Club, the Philadelphia 76ers, the Baltimore Ravens and the Baltimore Orioles. He also shares his home with two dogs and a cat. His favorite meal is Nigerian jollof rice and chicken.
