Assessment
The teacher will frequently check for understanding, leading the student when needed, and encouraging to solve problems after providing instruction. The teacher will give students the opportunity to solve problems on their own, and then we will review together.Class Experience
US Grade 5 - 8
This individual tutoring session is designed to support learners with completing and understanding their homework as needed throughout the school year. Your student will bring homework problems for completion, and together we will proceed at your child's pace. My teaching style is very interactive, engaging, encouraging, and fun. I will instruct your learner as needed and guide them through any issues, encouraging growth, confidence, and fun! If homework is completed before the session is finished, I will check and reinforce your learner's understanding with additional similar problems. I also offer WEEKLY sessions under another class listing in which students may enroll for eight sessions at a time. Don't see a time that works for you? Please send me your request! Note: This session could also be used to prepare your child to enter into the next grade. If you would like to use this session as summer prep, please let me know; in that case, I will provide the necessary material, and will instruct your child at their pace. Please also let me know the grade they would like to prepare for.
Learning Goals
Students will improve their understanding of all concepts assigned in homework problems, and become more confident in math.

Supply List
Students will need their assigned homework problems. Students will also need pencil, paper, and a good eraser! If calculators are permitted in class, then students will also want to have a calculator. If graphing is part of the assignment, students will also need graph paper. Protractors and compasses will be needed if we are measuring or constructing angles and/or bisecting lines. Colored pencils or markers can also make it more fun.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Master's Degree from University of Michigan
As an engineer and someone who has tutored 1st, 3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 7th, 8th grade math, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, ACT Math Prep, Pre-calculus, and Calculus, I have a wonderful, unique perspective on the importance of a solid foundation in math, especially pre-algebra; it is essential for all math classes that follow.
I am an industrial engineer who always wanted to be a math teacher. I had fun helping my kids with math homework while they were in school, and when they started college four years ago, I began tutoring math at our local middle school as well as tutoring privately (all grades).
I am able to work with students of all different learning styles and abilities and will work at your child's pace.
I love all math, and I make it fun for kids! Even our cat Charlie loves to do math homework - - we just can't tear her away from it!
