JH Tutoring Services

During our first meeting I find out where the student is in their course and what their issues are.  I then model for the student how to solve the problem.  We then do a problem together on a white board.  Next I ask the student to do the next problem alone and to refer back to white board or example from textbook, if they need to.  We then complete the assignment and preview the next lesson, before the close of the session.

I have a M.A. in Education from Cal State University, as well as teaching Math for Mesa Public Schools for the past decade and a half.  I've also privately tutored for the past 10 years outside of teaching

I charge $40 per hour for all services provided.

Teaching is a second career for me. Prior to teaching I was a project manager for a software company in Silicon Valley, as I have a Master of Arts degree in Organizational Management for the University of Phoenix, as well.

I've tutored students ranging from 2nd grade through forth year college students.

I was preparing one of my favorite students for the SAT and ACT.  This particular student needed to up his scores in order to get into his dream university.  We were able to accomplish this goal and he is awaiting word from several universities that he recently visited back east.  He has no anxiety during this senior year of high school, because he has the grades and aptitude test scores to be accepted at any of these highly acclaimed institutions.

I would advise a student to be open to listening.

Students should be ready to relate where they specifically need guidance.  Many students say I don't get it, but haven't put in the work to know exactly what they don't get.
