Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I like to find out what there goals are and the jump right in!
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I grew up in a family of mathematicians and have been doing math of all kinds for years. I also worked as an actuary at a major consulting firm for several years.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge by the hour. My hourly rate includes brief assistance when we're not meeting. If a student is stuck on a problem or has a quick question, there’s no need to wait until we meet again, just send a quick message and I'll respond asap!
How did you get started teaching?
My friends in high school & college asked for assistance. It turned out I was really good at making the math easy for everyone.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with every kind of student from every kind of background. From quite young to surprisingly old.
Describe a recent event you are fond of.
Just this week, a previously struggling student received a 101% on a major exam. It was her first A on a test ever!
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
I think the best math tutors don't seem like mathematicians, just normal folks that like to help and can explain things simply.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
It is helpful if a student knows their immediate and longer-range goals., but sometimes a math student can be rather "lost" and just needs some help to get started on the process.
