Pre-Algebra Tutoring
Students from middle school to college take pre-algebra. Looking for help? Select a tutor today. Much of pre-algebra is a review of all previously taught mathematics concepts with the inclusion of upcoming previews algebraic equations and models. Some of the items covered in a pre-algebra course are: Tools of Algebra, Integers, Equations, Factors and Fractions, Rational Numbers, Ratios, Proportion & Percent, Linear Equations & Inequalities, Functions & Graphs, Real Numbers & Right Triangles, Two Dimensional Figures, Three Dimensional Figures, Statistics & Probability, Polynomials & Nonlinear, and Functions. For most students success in pre-algebra comes from regular studying and practicing habits. However, for some, math in general is a foreign language. These students require more assistance than self-study; they need someone who can answer their questions in a way that they can understand. Hiring a professional tutor strong in mathematics to assist in pre-algebra now can make a dramatic difference in a student’s performance and outlook on all future course work.

I prefer a hands on approach to helping students understand concepts. Desire to help students learn how to tackle mathematical concepts on their own rather than just showing them how to do it. Fairly patient as long as I feel a student is trying. While in college I worked as a math grader and test proctor. Also performed tutoring for high school and middle school students.
Passion for helping young students understand and develop love and appreciation for math.
Also passionate about German language and culture. Lived in Germany twice while a college student.
Once as a student at the Goethe Institute in Freiburg, Germany. The second ti

Corrinne P. - Culpeper, VA 22701 (43.6 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $52.50/hr.
I love to incorporate art and sensory experiences into everything I do to really activate the brain. The "Drill and Kill" is very rarely appropriate, so I tailor every approach individually. What works for one student may not work with another. My formal training includes many intervention types and experience with multiple programs and curricula, so I have a large pool from which to draw...then we get creative! My style REALLY aims for those over-arching foundational skills like critical thinking, thought organization, and problem solving. I will also track and provide data to monitor progress and hold myself accountable for effectiveness. Let's start out by saying I am definitely not your average tutor! Fun is vital to motivation, and I live on the stuff! I have been teaching for over fifteen years in a variety of environments, working in inclusive environments with children aged

Leo P - Staunton, VA 24401 (12.5 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $32.50/hr.
The mission of my teaching ministry is to help form competent, ethical and service oriented professionals. One of the most satisfying aspects of my teaching career has been helping students excel in quantitative reasoning and oral and written communication. I have taught finance, economics and quantitative methods at the undergraduate and graduate levels for more than ten years. I have worked in the financial services industry for more than thirty years. My teaching is quantitative in method and interactive in style. I focus on "why" before moving to "how." I am patient and willing to try different learning approaches to achive my student's objectives.

Lester B - Powhatan, VA 23139 (51.7 mi) - Pre-Algebra Tutor - $39.00/hr.
The chance to tutor peers in high school was the initial spark towards considering education as a career. During my undergraduate studies the desire has grown as I was given the opportunity in the role of Teaching Assistant. I found from those experiences that I have an ability to gauge a student’s comprehension of the material during sessions. This allows me to make adjustments on-the-fly and in the process become more effective in accomplishing the objective. In my teaching, I look to engage students through whatever means at my disposal with a primary focus on participation. Learning must become pro-active. My love for teaching comes from a teacher who showed that in everything they do, a true inspiration. For just over a decade I have been involved in some form of peer education or mentoring. As a senior in high school, I tutored students in mathematics and science. As an ACS Certifi
