Chalkboard Math Tutoring
About
I love math! I love finding ways to help anyone and everyone understand all levels of math. I will break down even the most complex, multi-step problems into bite-size pieces so that you can follow each logical step to a final solution. I can help you fill-in knowledge gaps, review or preview during summer breaks to get you ready for your next school year, help with homework or help you get caught-up after an illness or absence, extend your knowledge to get ahead with coursework, or give study tips for upcoming tests. I also tutor SAT/ACT math!
I enjoy getting to meet new people! Everyone has a story, and I hope that I can help your story have a happy math ending!

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Meet them, and see if there is a connection. You will not learn from someone if you do not like them.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Students should be honest about why they are seeking a tutor, and be able to explain their definition of a successful outcome from the tutoring.
