Math Tutoring

I like to start by asking them about what they hope to get out of tutoring, whether it be going through example problems, me explaining concepts, or reviewing past homeworks and tests. I also like getting to know my students and what their previous experiences with math have been. 

I am studying mathematics at Georgia Tech and have previous tutoring experience! I also hope to one day be a high school math teacher and love working with kids and teens. 

I was a teaching assistant for my high school advanced physics class and learned I love teaching! I have also done tutoring with high schoolers for the past year and love it!

I have tutored high schoolers but have also babysat and lead weekly church Sunday school classes for elementary and middle school students.

I would say to not feel pressure to love the first person you work with. It can be diffuclt to find the right match on the first try, and don't be afriad to try two or three tutors before deciding on one to stay with because finding a great match is really helpful!! Also, be sure to find someone who you respect and who respects you and doesn't talk down to you in any way. 

What do you want out of this tutoring? Is this something you are planning on doing long term or just once or twice? How can you supplement the tutoring in your own time?
