Reviews on Bottom
I've always enjoyed helping those who wish to understand subjects and material which they struggle with. I have been a tutor for over 10 years and have two students I have helped with from grade school all the way to graduate school. I make my goal to personally get to know the student and exactly what issues they are struggling with. I have worked with 8 year olds to 50 year olds including professionals who need refreshers. I have certifications in 27 subjects through varsity tutors and am negotiable on pricing.
I also find it's important to have the parents involved and understand what is going on with open communication.
Once I understand what the student is needing, I create a lesson plan specifically targeting the goals that they wish to achieve. I then find the best way to communicate with the student to effectively teach them the material. I take whatever time is needed to ensure that goals are reached and that the student is fully comprehending the subject matter.
I have owned a small tutoring business in the past and currently have a master's in criminology and a bachelor's in criminal justice.

Additional Comment: I feel so much better about finding resources and not having to use all of my valuable time reading what is not helpful to my end goal. the tips I learned from David are sooooo valuable to me. He is intuitive and picks up on the blocks that I have to succeed, in the little time available in my busy life. I feel that I can write smarter, much smarter now.

We are looking foward to working with you and supporting your efforts in any way we can. Thanks again and see you on Tuesday. Mark parents....7th grader

Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I work with the families I work as hard as I can to make the students succeed. Typically if you pay 15 for one hour session but I allow families to pay lower costs if we create a written contract where they buy say 10 sessions. No taxes. I work with the family one on one to understand what they want and how because each family is different. Pricing is always negotiable and based on parent and student ability.

What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Find someone your comfortable with and is willing to work with what learning style works best for you. Try someone once if you don't feel comfortable then you always have the choice to move on or communicate with the tutor what the issue is. Communication is big no matter how old you may be and can be effective in every aspect of your life no matter if your 5 or 50.
