Carolyn - Mathematics Tutor - Grades K-10
I am a teacher and a tutor with many years of experience. I taught in elementary school, middle school and a community college. I teach using all the basic methods.

I am very patient with all my students. If they do not understand a concept I will repeat it many times until it is understood.... Read more

Enthusiastic astronomy, physics, math tutor
- $150 / h

- Cold Spring , New York ( 10516 )
- 12 miles
I've always enjoyed one-on-one work with students, since this best allows me to pinpoint and address the student's areas of confusion. Every learner is different and I believe it's important for tutors to identify and adapt to the learning styles of their students. I aim to be flexible and creative; since we live in a physical world, I like to use familiar phenomena as examples to discuss physics and astronomy concepts. I have 13 years of experience teaching in both formal and informal e... Read more
