William
Enthusiastic Mathematics Tutor
- $40 / h
- Harrisburg , Pennsylvania ( 17103 )
- 5 miles
I've tutored students in mathematics on occasion in my undergraduate career. I was a classroom assistant for a precalculus course in which I also tutored students. From this experience, I've crafted a tutoring approach of learning by example. That is, I show how a similar problem or equation is solved, that way we can go through the steps together to see what areas need the most focus. The approach of "practice makes perfect" is also a tactic I'll use. I recently tutored someone in college al... Read more

I recently graduated from a small four year university with a degree in biology. In school, I had a peer tutoring job and absolutely loved it. My peers would come confused, lacking confidence, and stressed. They would leave with a better understanding of a complex subject, more confident, and with tips for better study habits. I absolutely loved getting to see that kind of progress. I also used my gift for teaching at a summer camp where I worked. I could get small groups of campers (and co-w... Read more
