30 Minute Math Consult for Parents
25
If your child is struggling with math, has questions that are not being answered in their traditional setting or just wants to learn more, I will discuss their needs with you and make suggestions for alternative materials and/or methods of learning. I can help with all math topics up to and including Algebra II.
As you can see from the photo, I like to use alternative methods of explaining concepts; visual and tactile methods are my favorites. Each child is different and their learning needs are different from every other child. Often just offering kids another way to look at a concept or problem can help make that light bulb click on. In a traditional classroom setting, there is no way for a single teacher to be able to meet each student's individual needs, no matter how noble their intentions. However, if a child learns to look at problems in a way that makes the most sense, they can bring that confidence back to the classroom and increase their own success and happiness.
Training & Qualifications
I have been homeschooling (birth to college) for 14 years and tutoring math for the past decade. I use a wide variety of resources and methods to best meet the needs of each individual child. My goal is for all kids to see the value of math in everyday life and enjoy the journey of problem solving!
Availability & Preferences
I have availability most days, with the time of day depending on the day of the week. I can work around most families' schedules.
