My greatest learning experiences were the result of inquiries by my students. A student must master mathematical operations with: whole numbers, integers, fractions, decimals, and percents before more abstract mathematical concepts such as algebra, geometry; trigonometry, statistics, calculus, etc. can be understood. A good teacher can assess and strengthen the student's ability to comprehend abstract principles of higher order math problems. I integrate mathematical concepts into meaningful contexts that engage the student’s interests whatever they may be i.e. sports, nature, science, finances, entertainment, transportation, etc. It is essential to know your student as an individual.

Mary Ann L - El Rito, NM 87530 (38.7 mi) - Tutor - $38.50/hr.
For the first three years out of the university, I was a school librarian, and was board certified K-12 by the Washington State Board of Education as a result of this experience. From 2006-2008, I have been tutoring writing at Northern New Mexico College, from 4th grade remedial level through college papers in all subjects. I am presently working in an Upward Bound program for 9th graders, to help increase their study skills. I believe that students need to be challenged. When they are highly challenged, they really produce. In my tutoring experience, my students' test scores rose two grade levels in ten weeks because they were challenged. Previously, these students were thought to not be able to speak, read, or write English, and were pre-testing at very low grade levels.
Also Tutors: Computer, Science, Math, Writing, Reading, Grammar, Elementary, Biology, American History, Advertising
