Kiki’s Math Tutoring
About
I have been amateurly tutoring for close to 10 years now and would like to start doing it professionally. I am a college freshman and biology major who has taken math up to honors pre calculus. Once I have my degree, I'd like to use it to be a professor because I am really good at explaining difficult concepts in a way that is easy to understand.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I let them explain to me what class they are taking, what they are learning about, and what they have trouble with. I find it is easier for both me and the student if they are in charge of what they are learning
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I graduated high school in 2019 and have years of tutoring as my training.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I would like to make at least $10 an hour.
How did you get started teaching?
I am a big sister and I grew up helping my brother with his homework. One of my teachers realized I was really good at it and I became an after school tutor at that teachers recommendation.
What types of students have you worked with?
I've worked with elementary school age to college age kids
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Not every tutor is perfect for every student and that's okay. Someone can be the best tutor and you can still have trouble understanding them. You have to find the person you fit best with.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
I know sometimes it is hard to put your finger on what you don't understand. It can be helpful to tell your tutor what you do understand and have them fill in the blanks. It can also be helpful to know how you learn. I'm a very auditory learner, I learn best when someone explains things with words. Other people need pictures to understand. It's okay to ask for those things.
