Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I offer a free 30 minutes "interview" working session for student and me to get to know each other. We can then decide if we are suitable for each other or not.
I do expect a student to be "prepared" for the "interview" session and all sessions we will work together. It means "know what you don't know" or " know what you want to know".
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a PH.D. in mathematics and I am used to be a university math professor. I have taught college math for many years. Helping students to learn math better has always been my focus.
Now I am an e-learning expert working on online learning systems. I own an online math learning system used by colleges and schools that has helped tens of thousands of students doing math better. Besides individual tutoring sessions, my students can use the online system for additional personalized help.
How did you get started teaching?
I started teaching as a teaching assistant when I was a graduate student. Then I was a university math professor for many years and was a tenured professor before leaving academics to online learning technology.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have taught thousands of college students. Tutored many college and high school students. I also tutored some younger students from grade 4 and up.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
The best teachers are always the ones who love what they are teaching and enjoy their students' success.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Just bring in questions and difficulties to the teacher, as specific as you can. For example, it can be a concept, a formula, an example, a problem, or a solution, that you don't understand, don't know how to start with, how to get the correct answer, or don't feel comfortable with. Good teachers can guide the student to resolve these issues and identify the root cause of the student's weakness. And then help students to improve on the weakness.
