Experience Summary
My name is Alla and I have been teaching and tutoring in the area of mathematics for the past fourteen years. I am a former math teacher from KCHS and have tutored for three years for the students of the Chesapeake College and have done private tutoring for high school students over the past four years. I have tutored in subjects such as remedial math, College Algebra, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Statistics, Algebra, and Algebra 2 and prepared clients for GRE, SAT and GMAT tests. This spring I started tutoring online using unique software called "White Board" so you don't need to travel anywhere to meet me. We both can be at home and have a tutoring session.
Teaching Style
I love to teach, and have a keen ability in finding what is hindering a student from moving forward. I teach by first seeing where the student is in their understanding, then try my best to fix the cracks in the foundation of the students understanding of mathematical concepts. I have found that most students have problems with higher math classes because they lack the understanding that is needed to enter the class. My hope is to help a student get to a place where they no longer need a math tutor to keep them from failing, but can have the confidence to move forward on their own, knowing they have the capability of getting an A.
