Scappoose, OR Math Tutors

I can assist with a variety of math lessons from pre-k through middle school. I can help with homework and studying for tests. I have several aids and extra practice sheets to match what you are doing in school.

I have always been fascinated with mathematics and all of it's related branches. As a chemical engineer major with over four years of tutoring, I have both the expertise and experience to teach anyone mathematics in a fun and interactive learning environment. I can explain complex concepts using easy-to-understand terms and relevant examples. My goal is to connect students with foundational knowledge and problem solving methods so that they can tackle any math problem by themselves. I believe that having a strong core in mathematics will not only increase a student's grades but will also boost their confidence, motivation, and interest in the subject as well.

I like to approach math topics in multiple ways so the student can not only understand the topic but also start to develop their own methods to approach new topics with confidence.

I taught Math at CPS and in the North Suburbs of Chicago. I believe, my strengths are patience and the ability to explain material in a clear, simple way.

Math doesn't need to be hard, you can understand it and even have fun with it! Math is my favorite subject and one that I have been tutoring for several years. While I aim for comprehension over scores, grades typically improve with comprehension. In each tutoring session, you can choose to receive homework help, test preparation, or extra practice that I can supply.

I have taught or tutored math for decades. My approach is different than other math teachers in that I have students first write the words for all of the steps. This method helps students see why they are they doing a step and why can they do a step. Most math teachers work example after example and expect the student to learn inductively. I teach deductively and students, especially ones who have struggled in math, do very well with this new method.

If you're stuck on concepts or just feeling totally overwhelmed by math in general, let's work together to find a way for these concepts to make sense and feel relevant for YOU. Once they click, they click, and I think you'll find that understanding and solidifying some foundational concepts will make the rest of your coursework much more manageable.

During high school, I was given the title "Teacher Brie" because of the energetic and cheesy way I taught the information.

Much of my tutoring experience stems from helping my classmates understand information. When taking AP Calculus, my teacher left for half the year on maternity leave. With the lack of an actual math substitute teacher, I essentially taught the class and lead myself, and my classmates, to all A's and B's.

After graduating, I began officially tutoring younger students in pre-algebra, algebra, trigonometry, pre-calculus and calculus. I am currently working with a high school student on Algebra 2 and an elementary school student.
