Individual Math, Latin, or Science Tutoring - Full Hour

This is private tutoring in either elementary school math, beginning Latin, or science enrichment/challenge. (Writing is another area I tutor; feel free to inquire about that.) I will first assess your child's needs and level of learning/prior mastery, as well topics of interest if applicable, and then build onto that. In time, I can also tailor to individual learning styles. Parents often provide me with these types of background information. The skills, content, and concepts will depend on the needs of the learners and the objectives upon which the parents and I agree. 

Children enjoy tutoring with me more than what is typical, as they appreciate my age-appropriate sense of humor. (Some have remarked that I am the funniest teacher they have ever had!) Using Annotation in vibrant colors, I create visuals including drawings; and for math I incorporate tools for students to use such as coordinate planes, other grids, and number lines.

Please note that if my current availability would not fit your learner's schedule, I welcome requests for different time slots/days.

The instruction could involve at least one of (but not restricted to) the following features:

MATH:

1) Important skills/concepts related to Common Core standards or topics of the learner's/parent's choosing; areas where the learner is struggling or needs extension/challenge.

2) Determining the learner's "cutting edge" and providing the next step(s) in learning.

LATIN:

1) The acquisition of Latin language fundamentals using classical pronunciation; following the same grammar, vocabulary, word roots in English, and approach that I use in my group Latin classes.

2) Either starting from the beginning for the learner, or building onto what the student has previously learned in my Latin classes (at whichever level completed: my Level 1, 2, 3, or 4).

SCIENCE:

1) Answering the multitude of science-related questions (primarily about astronomy/space exploration and weather) the child may have.

2) Pointing the learner into the right direction to discover additional answers. 

3) Devising or recommending science activities (and perhaps doing those activities with the learner) that should foster discovery of fulfilling answers.
