Each week we will go over your learners’ questions from their math curriculum or program. Learner will be required to submit what they would like to go over at least 2 hours prior to session. I will pull extra materials, if we do not use all the allotted time, we will go over these extra materials. The extra materials may include problems related to the topics sent by you or your learner, or math concepts that I have assessed need more strengthening. Generally, my teaching style would be described as discovery but in this setting, I am more of an aid to learning. To me this means giving confidence, stopping and show examples when needed but for the most part directing the student to work the questions out on their own. I will ask a lot of questions to help spark memory on the concept. If asked for more resources on a particular concept, I will post videos in the classroom. Objectives for tutoring: Develop reasoning and problem-solving skills Explore setting up problems using appropriate math symbols Understand properties of math and how to apply them to math problems Display perseverance in problem solving Suggested topics for tutoring: Pre-Algebra, Algebra one, Geometry, Algebra two, Clep testing for college mathematics or college Algebra, SAT or ACT testing, Pre-Calculus If you are looking for more of a 1:1 teaching of a topic, please email me. I am willing to cater a curriculum to a students needs but will need more information before doing so. I also require at least two sessions a week to do this.

Teacher expertise and credentials
From August of 2014 till June 2018 I worked as an adjunct math instructor and the program coordinator of the learning lab at Southern WV Community and Technical College. As the program coordinator of the learning labs I saw a lot of student who had been taught to memorize math instead of discover math. My experience not only as a math instructor, but as a radio engineer and data analysts has led me to the belief that math is best learned through skill building, discussion, and discovery.
I decided that I wanted to work with students starting in Pre-algebra, Algebra one, and Geometry. Currently I teach the following classes: (Make sure to scroll to the end to find out about office hours)
Pre-Algebra Year one:
Discovering Pre-Algebra Part one
In this class we will discover the organization and purpose of order of operations. How to perform order of operations with different types of rational numbers (exponents, square roots, decimals, fractions, integers, absolute value).
Discovering Pre-Algebra Part two
In this class we will discover proportional thinking and how it applies to different ideas in math (unit rates, unit conversions problems, discounts, tax, gratuity, markup’s, markdown’s, late fees, similar figures). We will also look at simple interest.
Discovering Pre-algebra Part three
In this class we will discover statistics and how to collect (Mean, median, mode, mid-range), display (box plots, stem and leaf, histograms, circle graph, and more), and interpret data (Venn diagram, tree diagram, Probability, and odds).
Pre-Algebra Year two
Discovering Pre-Algebra Part four
In this class we will discover the basics of Algebra (combining like terms, one and two step equations, one variable inequalities, absolute value equations, basics of exponents and radicals, scientific notation)
Discovering Pre-Algebra part five
In this class we will discover basic geometry skills for 2-d and 3-d shapes.
Discovering Pre-Algebra Part six
In this class we will discover graphing and linear equations.
Algebra one:
Discovering Algebra one: Part 1
Discovering Expression, Equations, Inequalities, linear equations and mathematical reasoning.
Discovering Algebra One Part 2
Shifting and reflecting Linear equations, Function families, domain and range, systems of equations and inequalities.
Discovering Algebra One Part 3
Discover the rules and properties of exponents and radicals. How to apply the Pythagorean Theorem and is converse to real life situation.
Discovering Algebra One Part 4
In the class you will work with polynomials, factoring and quadratic equations.
I love math and I hope that your learner finds my love for math infectious!
******* On Thursday, Friday and Saturday I have another job (well I babysit my grand babies) if you email during one of these days I may not be able to get back to you until Sunday or Monday.
