I absolutely love working with students. I believe each student is unique. Every child learns in a different way, and I try my hardest to have them succeed in their own learning way. I plan to work with each student as an individual. Each and every student is unique in their learning styles. It is about adapting work to meet their style, to explain things in ways that will make sense. Children are our future and we need to prepare them :) I'm currently a certified special education (K-12),... Read more

Hello, I might be the tutor you are looking for. Currently, I'm working with a number of students preparing for SAT and ACT math. My approach is personal, patient and empiric.

My objective is to make a positive difference in the lives of my students. I think I manage to do that more often than not. My approach to tutoring is simple: I try to understand how a student is thinking. This can be done by sharing how I am thinking and invite the student to do the same. This is a collaborative process built on mutual trust. I started tutoring in 2004, working with high school and middle school students who needed academic support in math. The objective was to improv... Read more
