About Kristina
Your Way Tutors (yourwaythis website) is a premier tutoring service in Los Angeles. We believe that each and every student is a unique learner, and that instruction should follow suit!
Kristina Gsell (Founder and Lead Tutor), Columbia University School of Engineering Class of 2012, first started tutoring in 2013. She helped students in New York City’s top schools for three years, and in 2015 she relocated to expand her services to Los Angeles.
Since then, she has continued to engage the minds of middle school, high school, and college students here in Los Angeles, advancing her students and helping them achieve their highest potential.
Your Way Tutors offers quality tutoring with Kristina including in-person sessions in Los Angeles County, as well as (discounted) online sessions via Zoom (preferred), Google Hangouts, or FaceTime.
Test preparation specialties include the SAT, ACT, and GRE. Academic coursework support includes Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Algebra, Trigonometry, Geometry, History, English, Environmental Science, and Statistics.
*Note on COVID-19 Safety Protocol: In the case of in-person sessions, all COVID-19 safety measures will be adhered to including vaccination, and (when recommended by public health agencies) masking, and physical distancing.
Bio: Columbia University, 2012, major in Earth and Environmental Engineering, graduated Magna Cum Laude; Member of Tau Beta Pi, Engineering Honor Society; King’s Crown Leadership Award 2010-12; 750 on Chemistry SAT II, Score of 5 on AP exams in U.S History, Chemistry, and BC Calculus.
Kristina’s passion for education was already in evidence when she was a student at North Shore High School in Glen Head, NY. She tutored her peers in Earth Science, Chemistry, and Algebra, working in conjunction with the National Honor Society—a national organization dedicated to honoring and promoting student academic excellence and service—to help them achieve academic success. She excelled in her own academic studies at North Shore, graduating third in her class.
At Columbia, Kristina continued to hone her advanced math and science skills as part of her rigorous engineering training and while tutoring Columbia students in Math and Engineering. Her research and demanding coursework provided invaluable experience in collaboration, organization, and innovative thinking. Adding to her tough academic and tutoring schedule, Kristina joined an a cappella group and served as President of the Columbia University Food Sustainability Project, which helped her become an expert in working efficiently and effectively, managing time for herself and her students.
Kristina connects to her students by conveying advanced subject matter in simple, straightforward terms. She works hard to both identify and address gaps in her students’ comprehension. Her subject areas of expertise include Calculus, Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Algebra, Trigonometry, Geometry, History, English, Environmental Science, and Statistics. She is also trained and experienced in helping students prepare for standardized tests such as the SAT, ACT, and GRE.
While she has a strong work ethic, she is also a fun-loving person and hopes to exude this attitude in all her tutoring lessons. A bit of an over-achiever, Kristina doesn’t have much downtime. But when she does, she can be found gardening, practicing yoga, or cooking with friends.

I am offering free consultations (in-person or online) for new students, so that we can get to know each other and decide if it is the right fit before making any commitments. I will determine the learning style of the student and adjust my teaching methods accordingly. In many cases I will provide multiple problem solving pathways (particularly useful in the case of mathematics) and allow the student to chose what works best for them. Learn it your way with Your Way Tutors!

Review
All of our reviews are collected by us and are 100% reliable. They correspond to a real experience lived by the students of Kristina.
Perfect! My two daughters absolutely loved working with Kristina in their high school Pre-Calc, Calc, Biology and Chemistry classes. Kristina explains concepts in a way that is understandable and she is so personable and accommdating as far as scheduling of sessions. My one daughter had her friends join a group session with Kristina, and after that, they all started using her as their tutor. My college bound daughter, who will be a Biology major, will likely use Kristina for tutoring in her college chemistry classes.

Kristina is such an amazing teacher and is incredibly patient and kind. She is so knowledgeable and is able to break down complex topics into digestible pieces. I would absolutely recommend her as a tutor!
Kristina has be an excellent tutor that we have worked with for two years. My daughter met with her both in person and online for biology and online for Honors Calculus. Kristina was an excellent at breaking down tough concepts, utilizing the time wisely, and partnering to improve so my daughter could reach her goals. You will be in good hands with Kristina!!!
Kristina has been the most outstanding tutor I’ve ever had. She is consistently supportive, highly knowledgeable, and has a remarkable ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and relatable way. Math has always been a challenging subject for me, but with her expert guidance, I was able to improve my understanding significantly and raise my grade from a C to an A. an achievement I once thought was out of reach. Kristina not only helped me succeed academically but also made learning math an enjoyable and rewarding experience.
We’ve had the pleasure of working with Kristina as a tutor for our son for the last two years and we truly couldn’t be more grateful for the experience. Kristian brings a remarkable level of expertise in AP-level high school courses. Her depth of knowledge and ability to break down complex concepts has made a world of difference in Leo’s academic confidence and performance.
What sets Kristina apart even more is her incredible patience and understanding when working with teenagers. She creates a supportive and motivating environment that meets students where they are, while still gently pushing them to reach their potential.
Kristina is also wonderfully flexible with her scheduling. She’s always been accommodating of our family's needs, and her willingness to adjust sessions as needed has made the tutoring process stress-free and seamless.
Equally important is her communication style. As parents, we’ve felt consistently informed and engaged thanks to her thoughtful updates and insights. She strikes the perfect balance of involving us without overwhelming us, making sure we’re part of the journey every step of the way.
We wholeheartedly recommend her to any family seeking expert academic support with a personal touch. She has truly been an invaluable partner in Leo’s educational journey.Finding Kristina was a blessing. My daughter was tutored all junior year in several subjects, and the results are great. Her support helped her gain confidence, improving test results, grades and overall outlook on school. Can't ask for a better, sweeter or more considerate tutor.
Kristina is an amazing tutor! She’s super kind and very smart. She helped me in two of my classes last year those being physics and math which are tough subjects for lots of students and she’ll most likely be helping me next year too. Within a 30 minute session with her she taught me more than my actual math teacher could in an hour and 30 and worked at my pace so I could really understand it. She even offers extra practice questions if we have left over time that really help! Overall she’s a truly amazing tutor and i’m so grateful for her help in my academic journey!
Your Way Tutors is the best!! Kristina has tutored my son through two classes in such a supportive and positive way. She truly has a gift for figuring out what my son is not understanding and guiding him to understanding. My son has the great grade results to prove it. We have done in-person and Zoom sessions. Gracious and upbeat, intuitive and knows the subject matter inside and out. Highly, highly recommend!
Working with Kristina for MCAT tutoring was amazing! We would go over practice test questions and she always came with great explanations and ideas of how I could improve. She was very encouraging and really helped me with my overall confidence. We focused on chemistry & physics, which ended up being my highest score on the exam! My MCAT score improved by 11 points after working with her. I am now a second year medical student and very grateful for all of her help and support!
My high school was rather advanced when it came to academics ... math—was particularly difficult for me. Kristina, said tutor, and I hit off the sessions really well and got along nicely, which made the tutoring even more productive. She always made sure to create a lesson plan, which was based off of materials that my teacher would provide to her via email. Each session would cover the homework assigned as well as the content for the next class. Thus, I had a very solid understanding of the material ahead of time and was able to really utilize that knowledge during class and understand the material on a deeper level.
After a while of tutoring, I started to notice how my grades were beginning to improve. This visible progress inspired more enthusiasm and confidence, which allowed me to appreciate calculus, more than I was before. By the end of the year, I scored a 100 on the final exam given to the class—a feat that was definitely not possible without Kristina's amazing support.
Kristina definitely is one of the best tutors I’ve had or seen. In my opinion, a great deal of her effectiveness as a teacher comes from her ability to adjust her teaching style to her individual students' needs. I would recommend her to anyone who needs help with classes in her area of expertise, as she is a great teacher and great person!Asking for help sometimes can be difficult. I was welcomed with open arms to Kristina's tutoring services. No question I asked was a stupid question. For problems that I needed extra help with she was able to explain it to me as many times as necessary, even up to five times, with zero frustration and complete consideration of the difficulties I was having. Kristina was able to assist me with college-level General Chemistry, particularly in fine-tuning my problem solving and test taking skills to get those simple extra points! Learning can be easy with a great teacher. She makes it very easy for video chatting tutoring and is very understandable of your schedule. Bottom line, tutoring doesn't get any better than this!
I have worked with a few tutors in the past and I can honestly say that Kristina was by far the best. Kristina really has a passion for learning and she is able to share her passion with her students. Moreover, she truly has a deep understanding for the subjects she teaches allowing her to efficiently teach. She is able to break down the material and make it extremely easy to understand. Kristina helped me prepare for the AP Calculus exam and she helped me pinpoint my weaknesses and strengths. She helped me become familiar with the test, which ultimately led to my success on the exam. Most importantly, Kristina truly cares about her students and she is really able to connect with them. Each and every one of my lessons with Kristina were enjoyable. She is an amazing tutor!!!
