About

I have been doing this for many years and have worked with many other tutors as well, learning their tricks. Many times, too many to count, students have told me I make it so easy to learn, that I have said things just the right way.

There is no greater thing than seeing the light come on in a student's eyes when they had previously been confused and often stressed and upset at their lack of understanding. I love watching a student go from this'll never work, I'm broken, to okay then, I'm actually starting to like this a bit.

Frequently asked questions

First sessions are about getting to know the student and getting a handle on their learning style so as to adapt the tutoring to it.
Tutoring since middle school and teaching since the 90s. Science degree, business degree, education degree
I try to be affordable and always less than the going rate. I also only charge by the session and not the hour. I find most sessions last from an hour to two. It really depends on the attention span/age/stamina of the student.
I worked in a tutor lab when getting started in college. We had so many students needing help in math that we were overwhelmed. Since all of the math courses had set syllabi, we started doing teaching sessions on the topics of the week in the various classes. That way we were able to help many more of the students in need.
I have worked with students of all ages. I have also had extensive experience and training working with students with various learning and physical disabilities. I have also taught adaptive technologies, Dragon Dictate for example.
The most awesome thing about teaching and tutoring is the thrill of getting to see the light of understanding come on in someone's eyes as connections are being made.
Find someone you can have a conversation with, someone who doesn't intimidate you. Preferably find someone who comes recommended by someone you trust.
Tutoring sessions can only be but so long, so the best thing to do is accomplish as much beforehand as possible leaving only the parts of your work that you're really stuck on for sharing with the tutor.
