Is your learner stuck on a specific math concept, skill, or type of homework problem? Or maybe they're feeling "stuck" in general in math and needing some on-going support to build confidence and discover the joy of math? I can help! In these one-on-one math tutoring sessions I will be able to focus in on the specific question, need, or gap in understanding for the individual student. I will use visuals, real world examples and any of the many tips, tricks, and strategies I have acquired to help the student achieve that "A-ha" math moment! I can also provide suggestions for further practice on the skill through practice problems, activities and games. Once enrolled, please message me the specific concept, skill or problem to be worked on so that I can come to the session fully prepared with visuals, real-life examples and related activities and games. These sessions can also be used by students in any of my multi-day or ongoing courses for a quick review, question or private make-up session for a missed class.
Learning Goals
Tailored to each individual student--please let me know your learning goals prior to the session!

Parental Guidance
We may use some of the third-party websites listed below that provide interactive, fun opportunities for building mastery and fluency of math concepts and skills:
Nearpod: Educational, interactive tool for presenting my own slide-show lessons and activities (such as matching, drag-and-drop, etc.) I will post a direct link in the Zoom chat that will take students directly into the lesson, they only need to enter their first name or nickname so that I know who is who within the lesson. * No account or personal information needed.
Google Jamboard: A great interactive tool for collaborative learning and sharing ideas. I will send a direct link in the Zoom chat that will allow students to enter directly into the specific Jamboard without any kind of sign-up * No account or personal information needed
IXL: This is a great site for practicing specific math skills and concepts. As a teacher, I really like it because I can assign specific sections that line up exactly with the concepts/skills we've covered in class, and be able to see students' progress on that skill. I will provide students with individual usernames and passwords, so no family account or personal information will be needed. Most students find the site fun and motivating, but please let me know if your student finds it stressful--I will find an alternative.
Blooket and Gimkit: Students love playing these fun, fast-paced games with math question banks that I am able to create and tailor to the needs of the class. The report I see after each game serves as a great informal assessment. I will post a direct link in the Zoom chat, students will simply enter their first name of nickname and begin playing the game. *No account or personal information needed
Google Slides: I will usually use Google Slides to present lessons through the screen share function, but may at times give students the link for activities or games that I have created. *No account or personal information needed
Google Forms: Each week's Lesson quiz will be on a Google Form, the link to which will be posted in the classroom *No account or personal information needed
Supply List
Please send me a message prior to the session with the specific math concept, question or skills to be worked on.
