Crafty Math Tutoring
About
I work with my students on their schedules to best accomadate what they need. I like to incorporate a system with my student that will not only help them master the subjects we are studying, but that will help them succeed through their academic and working career. Whether my students are early birds or noght owls, I am always readily available.
I enjoy teaching and also learning from my students. Engaging with people and learning about who they are and what they want out of life has always been why I can succeed in life and teach others how to do the same. Seeing the growth that my students make from udder confusion to looking at a problem and instantly knowing what to do to solve it is the greatest satisfaction any teacher can want from their profession.

The student should communicate what their current level of understanding is for what subjects they are requesting services. It is also helpful in briefly talking about who the student is as a person.
