1-1 Tutors

I follow a studied and effectively proven 3 Step System during our initial consultation. They are as follows: 

1) I review your past academic performance and handwritten notes to see where the "disconnect" is. More commomly, it may stem from a lack of proper instruction in the classroom setting or the substitution of "handouts" in place of formal notes. These are only two of many "disconnects" possible. 

2) I create custom made lesson plans for each of your sessions that specifically target these "disconnections" and enchance your understanding of the subject. 

3) As we progress together, I monitor your understanding of the subject; observing your strengths and weaknesses with the goal of getting you to the highest grade mark for the term.

All of my training stems from hands-on experience in the education field. Having tutored countless students ranging from pre-k to the college level with constantantly positive results, I am confident that I can serve as your tutor and assist you in getting where you need (or want) to be. Whether it be learning your ABC's to SAT Test Prep, there is always a path I can create to guarantee your success!

60 minutes: $50-$60 (most recommended)

90 minutess: $75-$90 (best value)

Variables in price range depend on level of instruction, distance traveled, and frequency of lessons.

I started teaching when a friend of mine had a younger sister who needed help with her Algebra I homework. Being a high school Junior at the time, she was my first student at the tutoring center. Her teacher empathized that math was just "memorization and you-get-it-or-you-don't" concepts. Through teaching her to not only break down, but to analyze mathematical problems from their fundamental roots, she began to understand how Algebra worked and how numbers functioned and correlated with one-another.

I have worked with adolescent students (2nd - 10th grade). I have tutored basic concepts in math such as how to add, subtract, etc. to high school leveled algebra problems and even college level statistics. In science, I have tutored basic conceps such as what are solids, liquids, and gases to more advanced topics such as high school biology and anatomy/physiology.

The best piece of advice I could ever give is that school material being hard is NOT your fault! Math and science are both extremely cumulative, and if you don't know the fundamental roots of a topic, it proven impossible to understand new information. It's like running; if you are still crawling and you can't walk, how are you supposed to run?

Through hiring me, I will get to examine what you already DO understand and analyze that with you to create further understanding of more advanced topics.

1) What's the best way you learn (visual, coordinated, or audial..refer to the question, "What is your typical process for working with a new student". 

2) What are some fundamentals of math/science you ALREADY understand

3) Where do you see yourself struggling

4) Why do you think you are struggling
