Got Math?
Hello to all my new neighbors in Cedar Rapids! My wife, 3 kids, and I recently moved to Marion from the Portland, Oregon area because she was offered a great job at a local hospital.

I have also helped many students prepare for SAT, ACT, GRE, GMAT and ASVAB tests. I have a BS in Mathematics from Grand View in Des... Read more

Todd
Retired Junior/Senior High Math Teacher
I began my career in education as a math tutor. This was followed by more than 10 years of teaching math at both the junior high and high school levels. I have experience in everything from pre-algebra to pre-calculus. One of the lessons I've learned over those years is that each student develops at their own pace. As an example, not all kids are ready for algebra at the age of 13 or 14. I emphasize the problem solving aspect of math. We will not be memorizing facts and formulas, ... Read more

Kristine
Encouraging and Effective Tutor for Math, ACT Prep, Reading
I love tutoring. As a WyzAnt tutor for more than seven years, I thoroughly enjoy the process of encouraging students of all ages to reach beyond what they thought they knew. My desire is for all students to become "life-long learners", seeing their current school subjects as just the beginning in their journey of learning. My tutoring methods differ, depending on the felt needs of each student. Sometimes I tutor by asking questions, hopefully encouraging the student to realize the answer or c... Read more
