This is a tutoring class that is small group based. The structure of this class will depend on the needs of the students. A pre-test will be posted in the classroom upon enrollment. This will allow for instruction to be based on student needs. Each class will follow the following format: a general warm-up, an introduction of the day's topic, a time for questions, and one on one instruction as needed. Students will be given videos, notes, and homework after each class. The homework will be reviewed during the next class period in the time for the questions portion. Since this is a tutoring structure the class topics will be determined by the student's pre-test. Calculators will be allowed. Students will need to come to class with cameras on and in a quiet location to take full advantage of the time. The pace will be slow and student-directed. This course will focus on fractions, decimals, percents, ratios, and equations with variables. The exact skills will be determined by the pre test.

I am a non traditional teacher, no lectures here!
Instead my classes focus on being:
*Student Centered- they lead the pace
*Critical Thinking -complex tasks are given that may be a bit unusual but will cause students to think deeply
*Problem Solving- word problems to keep concepts in context
*Focus on discovering patterns- patterns is the basis of the study of algebra and higher levels of math thinking
*Students create their understanding versus being told what to think
I am constantly learning how to become a better math teacher! I have a Master's degree in Math Education but I don't believe that means I know everything. In fact I am constantly reading about the brain, and the best ways to teach math. I also am constantly evaluating my classes and content and making changes based on how learners interact with the material.
I have 13 years of experience in Education, and have taught math at all levels including adults.

In my down time, I love hanging with my husband, and two girls. We love to read books, play games and do math together (of course:)Reviews
