Join me for a summer session, or plan now for fall tutoring while there are still openings available! Please pay close attention to dates. 

This class is a weekly ongoing private tutoring session for students in 5th, 6th, 7th, or 8th grade math through pre-algebra. The class time will be spent tutoring in the area of concern, and parents may communicate that are to me prior to class if they wish. If students need more support, you are welcome to schedule multiple weekly classes, or you can take advantage of my one-time tutoring sessions for occasional extra support.  My classroom is relaxed and low-key, yet focused intently on accomplishing the goal. I can tutor to specific concepts the student is learning, or I can offer homework help on particular assignments. 

I want students to enjoy the class; even more than that, I want them to find success in their studies, thereby building their confidence and imparting a love and joy for learning. I will work patiently with your student to ascertain the difficulty they are having and to provide strategies and solutions so that the student learns and understands the material. Interaction will be through direct instruction, examples, modeling of the concepts, and props when appropriate for the lesson. 

It is useful to know in advance what areas of concern need to be addressed. Please communicate the subject area and topic in advance of class, as this allows me to adequately prepare for your child's class. If there is a particular homework assignment your student needs help with, please upload it prior to class if possible so that I can have a copy handy (sometimes it is difficult to see a studen'ts screen when they are sharing).

I do ask that all students come prepared with, at minimum, paper and pencil, and preferably with a markerboard and marker if possible. If there is a particular assignment they need to work on, the student should be prepared to share their screen or in some other way allow me to see the problems they need help with.
