Building rapport with my students is key; if they know I'm dedicated to their success, they'll be more confident in asking questions and trying new approaches, taking an active role in their learning. I keep a stress-free atmosphere of empathy, patience, encouragement and understanding. To match my students' methods of learning I often draw and write my own examples while using other media to spark creativity. I guide students as they work and provide immediate feedback and solutions. In this way, they can build upon their lessons and continually sharpen their skills for success. It is extremely rewarding to see my students improve--I am wholeheartedly invested in making it happen.

My teaching style focuses on teaching students how to find the big picture. If they understand what it is they are trying to do, then showing them how to get there becomes easier. Any student can learn math, and have the capability to understand numbers, this just comes harder for some and easier for others. In my past I have benefited greatly from some math teachers, and fallen behind in classes where I was not getting what the teacher was talking about. Tutors can be a great help in pushing students over a difficult concept or idea. Then, when the student is back on track, they can take their education in their own hands again.
During the last four years, I have spent a large amount of time working with, and around middle school and High school students. I have spent time in the classroom, worked with small groups, and spent one summer working with multiple summer camps up and do ... read more
