Better in Math

When tutoring students in math, I help them to know the methodology and to understand the reasoning behind it. So they have a better chance to be able to solve the current problems, to build a better math foundation, and yet to have fun with it as well. I work with the students around their class materials and assignments. Also, if it is needed, I could pick a few additional problems to enhance what they've learned. This connects their school work and would fill the gaps around the subjects... Read more
