Franklin's Math Tutoring

About this tutor
I am a high school math teacher in my fifteenth year of teaching. I work with each student based upon his/her level and what level she/he needs to attain. I meet students where they are and then fill in the gaps to get them to where they need to be. Once a student is comfortable with their math ability, their anxiety in math classes is greatly reduced. I am currently a math teacher at Democracy Prep High School - Agassi Campus, Las Vegas. However, I am comfortable working with children and adults of all ages.
I love math, so I love it when the light bulb lights up and my students have the slightest smile when they realize that they understand how to do a certain problem.

Ms. Franklin has been a God send. I had my daughter at another tutoring facility and they were not able to help her with the classroom curriculum, they were only following their curriculum. Ms. Franklin comes to your home takes the students where they are and builds their skills. She does this all while making learning fun and easy. If you are looking for someone who loves teaching and helping students learn you have found the right person. I give her my highest recommendation.

FAQs
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
For younger students, I will initially work with the parent to assess what the parent feels their student is struggling with. However, no matter what the age, I will eventually have conversations with the student on what that particular student feels he/she does or does not understand. My philosophy is that I am there to help the student and I want to make sure the student realizes that I want them to succeed. In order for the student to succeed, there has to a level of comfort and trust that is achieved by getting to know one another.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Bachelors of Science in Mathematics and Secondary Education. I have taught for the past 14 years in multi-cultural environments, including both a suburban and urban settings. Even prior to obtaining my degree, I tutored in both the private sector and at a tutoring program I started at our church.

Currently, my base pricing is $50 per hour within a 15-radius. Anything outside of the 15-mile radius starts at $60 per hour.
How did you get started teaching?
As a math teacher, I watch the struggles of those students who are having trouble grasping the concepts of math. Since childhood, I have always been the one who played teacher and it seemed natural that any degree I would get while in college would include teaching.

I have worked with every type of student, from suburban to urban, gifted to the diverse learner. In addition, my experience also includes adult learners.
