Ashley's Math Tutoring
About
Hey Tutors.com community!
I am Ashley, with Ashley's Math Tutoring!
I am a 2015 Mathematics and Psychology bachelors degree graduate from Fisk University.
I have been tutoring for over 10 years, and have done so in North Carolina, Tennessee, Indiana, Texas, and online.
My passion for tutoring started back when I was struggling as a 9th grader in my Geometry class. My teacher, Mrs. Harper, simply told me you can really do well in this class, and walked away :D.
From there, my scores rose dramatically, and within a couple of years I started tutoring other students and was able to see them improve.
I tutor middle and high school students in math, and I also work with adults who are continuing their education in math, as well.
I look forward to working with you!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
I always do a free consultation to determine what the student's needs are.
It also gives me a chance to get to know them their parents/guardians, find out what their goals are, and ultimately, see if we are all a great fit to work with each other.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Mathematics and Psychology. I have been tutoring for over 10 years.
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
All tutoring sessions must be paid upfront, prior to the session beginning.
For individual tutoring, the hourly rate is $50, depending on the course.
For group tutoring (2-4 children), it is $30 per child, and lasts for 1.5 hours, depending on the course.
