Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
The first objective with a new student is to establish the problem they are experiencing if any. Then the problem should be solved effectively and quickly. Once any problems are solved a student can learn how to improve and truly excel.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I worked at Kumon, a tutoring company for 9 months. The learning centers Kumon has are focused on reading and math and the improvement of already excelling students most from the ages 5-13. I also have many volunteer hours for my school and National Honors Society that include tutoring other homeschoolers.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Around $15 per hour (negotiable).

My formal teaching stared working at Kumon Learning Center. At Kumon, I worked with children most aged 5-13 teaching math and English.
In addition, I have always been teaching since I started school. As a high achieving student, I was often asked for help in class. I also have a young brother that I try to each as much as possible from my mistakes.
What types of students have you worked with?
Ages 5-18; I have also worked with a couple of students that have Autism, however, this is not my expertise.
