FAQs


What is your typical process for working with a new student?

I ask for any problem sets, worksheets, or tasks that students have trouble with prior to the session so that I can review them and point out common errors on problems that may be similar. I first start with the problems the student already is having issues with, then move on to the rest of their work.  


What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I am currently going into junior year of high school. I have taken advanced math for years, and have worked in volunteering with younger kids at the elementary school I attended, helping them with homework and keeping them company. I work well with kids, I am very patient, and I teach great work ethics and study habits. 


Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

standard pricing is $25/hr, however, I do offer the first half-hour of the first session for free. 


How did you get started teaching?

I started helping peers in my class at the same math level, which eventually progressed into tutoring them off campus and assisting them with any concerns or areas of trouble in precalculus. 


What types of students have you worked with?

I have mainly worked with students from Algebra 1 through Algebra 2. 


Describe a recent event you are fond of.

When a senior in my class was able to increase their GPA with a higher grade in math, helping with college admissions.  


What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?

Look for someone whom you can relate to, is easy to work with, and does not get frustrated or mad at you for making mistakes. It's okay to not understand something, with hard work, effort, and practice everything will become easier. 


What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?

I believe that students should always use their own resources beforehand so that they build independence and problem-solving skills early on. However, there is nothing ever wrong with asking a teacher for help, and hopefully, the teacher can help them understand what they can work on, and what they already have great skill in.
