Homework
1-2 hours per week. When homework is assigned, I call it practice. It will only be the same kinds of work we do together during our session. It's only assigned so I can see if the learner can now do the work without my support, so parent help is strongly discouraged. If your learner doesn't understand the homework, or needs help, it's best to let them wait and we'll cover the material again in a different way. Most of the time when I assign practice work it will be a screenshot of the work we did in class, so your learner will have all of his/her notes right there. In order for me to check in before the next scheduled session to see if they are getting it or need further assistance, your learner will have to send me their work either as an image or pdf. I try to respond to messages as soon as I receive them, so guidance from me is often available between sessions as long as it's not abused.Assessment
Assessment is only ever conducted on the request of the parent. If you need a formal assessment for school records, we will arrange that on a per-student basis. Other than that, I monitor growth and progress and will send a monthly note to parents.Class Experience
US Grade 5 - 8
This is an ongoing, one-on-one math tutoring class. It is set up for 4 weeks, but can be extended or ended at anytime, and I have some flexibility to change the day/time as well. So if the available schedules don't work for you, let me know what will. The class can be set up to suit your learner's needs, you have 3 basic options to chose from. Option 1: Basic homework help or homeschool support. This is for students who struggle a bit and just need a little more guided help on their independent math work. Ideal of 5th-7th graders who need a boost of confidence but can typical manage to stay afloat in math. Learners will have to submit the work they want to work on 24 hours prior to their lesson time so I have time to prepare. We will look over the lesson, I'll teach strategies and language to help, and give some practice problems similar to the homework. Then, if requested, the learner can submit their finished work to me to check for accuracy before turning it in. **PLEASE NOTE** we will NOT be completing homework "together" that is not tutoring. Option 2: Getting ahead for advanced learners. This is for students who either love math and/or excel in it, but want to spend more time with it. We play games, solve complicated problems, and apply math to everyday life (or the very out there imagined life). I will still offer feedback on homework if the learner wants it. But the focus of these lessons is to challenge the learner to use the math they already know, and expand their skills. Option 3: Math Recon This is for students who struggle hard with math, maybe they have a learning disability (I hate that word, but that's how the world describes learning differences), or they just missed some basic skills early on. Whatever the reason, these learners are at least a year behind in functioning math skills. Classes for this learner will not include homework at all. Our focus is to go back, as far as we have to, to find the holes. As we fill the learner's holes of knowledge and understanding, we'll fly forward as far as we can (sometimes even past their current grade level) with that skill. When we reach a point of satisfaction, we go back and find another hole. All three of these options are also available in a 2-day a week class, here: https://outschool.com/classes/one-on-one-math-tutoring-twice-a-week-czlZgcrN

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hey Outschool families, I'm so glad you found my little corner of Outschool!
I love to teach middle school math to learners here. I work hard to keep learning fun, engaging, and when possible-challenging.
I've been teaching math for more than 2 decades, as a tutor, homeschool teacher, and homeschool mom. My all time favorite branch of mathematics is Geometry because it's so tangible, we can see it around us every day. But I also love the puzzle nature of Algebra and have a way to pass that on to my students.
I believe that every person can be a math person, even if they don't think they are right now. They just need to experience the challenging topics and skills in a way that makes sense to their unique brain. I see every one of my learners as a Unique Math Mind, and it's a privilege and a pleasure to help them see it too.
While I focus on Math, because that's the subject I love most, I am working on some classes that utilize math but aren't math focused. I love to garden and can my produce, so I'm working on something in that area. I'm also a quilter, and there's a TON of math involved with that sewing skill that I'd love to share. Actually, swing in general may pop up here soon.
I also will be adding some life skills classes very soon. My college degree is the brain based background to how we learn and things that make learning a challenge. I am also a late diagnosed ADHD brain, who struggled with a lot of things and developed a lot of skills and strategies that got me through my school years. So I'll be adding some study skills, planning, and journaling classes that will focus on our unique brains and relieving test and school anxiety.
