Why is Tutoring a Good Option?
Is your student falling behind in math? Do you want to stop seeing C's and D's on their report card? Are you worried that math is going to hold them back from pursuing college? Do you wish that they didn't feel so left behind? These are all questions many parents have asked themselves.
For many students, learning mathematics is a painful struggle. They can feel like they are falling behind in class, that they will never understand math, or that math is a hopeless subject for them.
Mathematics is one of the hardest subjects to learn, often because many students dislike it since it is taught in one way, which doesn't resonate with most students, which leads them to resent the subject, completing the vicious cycle of trying to learn math.
Luckily, this cycle can be broken. By personalizing tutoring sessions for each student's learning style, tutoring is often a great way to get your student back on track in class and leave your math worry behind.
By enrolling your student in private tutoring, you are setting them up for success and helping them embrace math as a challenge to overcome, not a beast to be feared.
I have tutored for two years, been a teaching assistant for another year, and recently begun substitute teaching. I am truly passionate about teaching mathematics and I look forward to helping your student.
What Do I Tutor?
Pre-Algebra and Algebra
Many students find all of the rules in algebra tedious and hard to remember. Part of my work is making algebra intuitive for students.
Geometry
Geometry is full of roadblocks for students, from proofs to logical thinking, my work is to make geometry feel natural for students.
Statistics
To most students, statistics doesn't feel like math, and struggle because of it. My work is to relate statistics to previous materials.
Trigonometry
Most students find memorizing every trig formula impossible. I give geometric intuition to make these easy to remember.
Pre-Calculus and Calculus
Calculus is unlike any other math students have done before, causing much difficulty. I help to simplify these new concepts.
Computer Science
Many students can feel overwhelmed in their first computer science class. I can help to make programming feel more digestible.
