About
My tutoring stands out from the rest by the different catergories that I could help my students with. I could not only teach Chinese for the ones who want to learn, but I could also help with SAT math and other math subjects such as algebra, algebra 2, and pre-calculus. I love helping people understand the subjects that they are struggling with, and I am extremely positive and patient when my students face difficulties in their learning. I can guarantee that my students will have fun during my tutoring session. Some things you should know about me are that I am bilingual in Chinese and English. I received a 4 on my Chinese AP test and a 790 on SAT math test. To conclude, I am very passionate about learning math and teaching others how to advance their skills.
The parts of tutoring that I enjoy are helping others become successful in the areas that they are struggling with. Also, I like using my knowledge to help kids build their confidence.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
A typical process for when I work with a new student is to get to know the student's name and age before I start working with them. I prepare myself with the subjects that I need to tutor them in so the student gets the most out of the tutoring sessions. Next, I will ask the students how many days they need tutoring for and organize my schedule accordingly. I will provide my contact informations for the students to get in touch with me when needed. I will finally recommend any necessary materials the student should have on hand during the session.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Since I was born in Taiwan, I have 13 years of experience speaking in fluent Chinese. Because of this, I am equipped to tutor students in Chinese, whether, it's in writing or speaking. In additon, I have a lot experience with the SAT tests for example, I scored a 790 out of 800 on my SAT exam. Because I have great knowledge in different subjects of math, it is very easy for me to teach other students advanced math.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
The advice I would give a student who is looking to hire a tutor, is to find a teacher who is well knowledgable in the subjects they need help with also I will make sure that the tutor is kind and patient when helping students. Finally, I will the student who is looking for a tutor to find a techer who is flexible with their time.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Students should think about what they don't understand and ask their tutors to help them in that certain area. In addition, students should think about how they can prepare before each session. For example, I like to start my classes right away, so I personally help my students what to have avaliable before class.
