Dakota's Math Tutoring
About
My excitement comes from your accomplishments. I strive to provide the best learning experience while also making sure you are finding the ability to process numbers, expressions, and equations quicker and easier.
Being able to do math at different levels is something I enjoy. It is interesting to not only see the relationship between the different levels of math but also the different methods each student uses to find the solution. Sometimes I even learn something new which is always a joy.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
When looking for an educator in mathematics you want to find someone who is deeply versed in math, is very skilled numerically, and is able to present answers in multiple ways. There is always more than one way to find the answer to a problem it is just finding what works best for the student.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
It is most important to exhaust every possible way they know to get a solution and cross-examine different methods to rationalize problems. If a solution can not be found after that, it is best to ask an educator for assistance.
