A Little Bit About Me...

Well everyone, I would like to mention that I am attending MSUB and I am working towards obtaining a math degree. I also tutor at the college where I help students with various levels of college math. My experiences vary from tutoring to being an aide at my local high school. The job where I was an aide I worked with two middle school students with special needs. Lastly, I would like to say I have worked with many students on all different levels, and I feel I have the experience and knowledge to help no matter what the occasion

I believe that students truly understand ideas and processes when they discover them independently; rote memorization does not instill thinking skills. To be a well-rounded academic, students must learn to use critical thinking and problem solving skills to work through problems and issues based on broad concepts and rules. Pupils must learn and memorize certain rules and concepts as a matter of course, but it is the ability to take these ideas and apply them to many topics, often with help and guidance, that makes a true critical thinker. I strive to intercede and guide students when necessary to push them through the barriers to fully realizing how concepts apply to different problems and situations.

More About This Tutor...

I have educated both college and middle school students, and through these experiences I learned that the key to effectively teaching others is patience. I guide my students but do not do the work for them. Most students have the ability to learn the material being instructed to them. By being patient, I give the students the opportunity to problem solve on their own, which ultimately builds confidence. With more confidence, students seem to learn better. I believe this is the key to mastering any academic subject.

More About This Tutor...

I recently retired from teaching but have a love of math and working with students. Presently that makes accessible to tutor students any time day or night. I believe that my patience is my biggest strength in working with students having difficulties in math. My experiences over the years has taught me that not every student learns the same way so that same material must be presented in variety of ways until the student gets it. It is my goal to provide a positive learning experience to all students I work with.
I have 34 years of middle school and high school math teaching experience of which the last 24 have been at LHS in Laurel, MT.
