On Point Math Tutoring
About
I am very passionate about helping others succeed in their educational goals and really just life in general. I will give 100% in trying to find a solution that will help you understand the task you are struggling with. Together, we will find a way!!
I started tutoring when I was in middle school and continued throughout college. Even now, I homeschool my children and I like to call that tutoring as well. Ha ha
I would say what makes me qualified for this job would be the grades I received in each subject. I have always been a straight A student. My GPA in college was a 4.0. My three children that I homeschool (5th grade, 4th grade, Kindergarten) are straight A students. Each of my children are unique in how they learn, how they study, etc and I have worked WITH them and developed different ways for each of them to understand their work so that they succeed. Another qualification would be that I am an extremely patient person. Patience is key in tutoring, in my opinion and experience.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
The first step in the process would be to have a conversation with the student (or parent of the student) to see what areas they need my help in. I usually ask a series of questions such as: How do you usually study? Would you be open to trying new ways of studying? Is there a certain area of the subject that you feel you need more help with? After speaking with them, I usually try to come up with a few different approaches and try each one as needed.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have two Associates Degrees. I have studied Advanced Mathematics in college, mostly as electives, because I just have an affinity for the subject. My GPA in college was a 4.0. I have always been straight A student and I took all AP & Honors classes my junior and senior year in high school.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
Not quite yet. I'm working on this now.
How did you get started teaching?
It first began when kids in my classes noticed that I was getting good grades and they would ask for my help. In college, I started getting paid to tutor. I stopped after college for awhile because I had my children, but I've never lost the love for it and desire to do it.
