Acme Tutoring
About
I am a graduate of the University of Michigan's top math program and have tutored all levels of math from grade school to graduate school. My specialties include algebra, prealgebra, calculus, precalculus, and linear algebra. I also tutor a variety of other subjects such as French and English.
I have more than ten years experience tutoring, and worked at the official U of M tutoring service for three years. I've also done lots of private tutoring and group sessions in the years since. I've had many happy clients -- references available upon request. I look forward to helping you or your child with any difficulties you may be experiencing. My tutoring style is based on helping the student with the thought process of problem solving using questions.
I enjoy helping people to understand things, acquire new skills, and gain their own unique perspective on things.
