My comments on tutoring Algebra : Tutoring for 28 years

My teaching style is to listen to the student and let them try to work the problem out. If they can't figure the problem out, I give them a similar example to follow and let them use that problem as a model. There is normally a protocol or steps to follow in math. I lead them through the steps using that example. Then they go back to their original problem and normally can do it better. Other subjects require reading like history or economics. I ask them to go back and look more carefully at their reading if they can't get the answers to their questions. In English, I teach them grammar rules and the structure of the 5 paragraph essay.

A Little Bit About Me...

I love teaching and working with all ages. I believe that every student can achieve their full potential if given the needed encouragement, skills, and time.

I graduated with a 3.9 from Whitworth College in 1979. I taught a 1st/2nd grade class for three years. My teaching certificate is not current. I home schooled my 4 children- the oldest through 8th grade. My second son had a learning disability. I spent many hours researching the best methods of teaching him to read. He made the deans list his first quarter in college! I recently taught adults how to do enumeration for the 2010 Census Bureau. I lead a club for middle school students. I am responsible for planning an ... read more
