Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
First, we identify which part of the class a student needs the most help with. Is it a certain topic? Study skills? Just needs practice? Then, I help students come up with a plan to make sure they get what they need from our sessions.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am actually a licensed teacher! I am licensed to teach life sciences grades 6-12 and math grades 5-9, so I've worked students of many ages. I also worked as a math tutor in high school/college on higher level math courses like algebra and geometry.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I start at $30-$40 per hour. There are variations dependent on the intensity of the subject and distance travelled.
How did you get started teaching?
I completed a teaching apprenticeship program in Indianapolis after my undergraduate study at Northwestern University.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students in 6th through 12th grade in the classroom, small groups, and individual sessions. I have also worked with college-age students in individual lessons.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Look for someone who can help you grow as a scholar, not just someone who will drill the material into your head for the exam. There's a big difference between just memorizing and actually learning.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
How can I get the most out of these sessions?
