Wyncote, PA Basic Math Tutors

Any level K-12,

From the introductory to the advanced level- I can simplify the complex topics to make it easy to understand.

I will teach you math concepts so that you will be able to handle math problems. I have a college degree: Bachelors in Science. I have a good following for math subjects, and I can help you.

Able to provide lessons in number form (standard, expanded), decimals, fractions, adding/subtracting of both types, word problems. Solving addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division problems. Also, can provide strategies for times tables (multiplication facts). I able to assist with exponents, absolute value, evaluating radical expressions, and order of operations (PEMDAS).

I'm a DC licensed Special Education Teacher with a Master's of Arts in Teaching for Special Education. For the past 5 years I've helped elementary students grades 1-6 to overcome the most difficult of academic challenges to perform on grade level. Before that I worked for 2 years as a high school teacher's aide for students with learning disabilities. Prior to that, I worked as a substitute teacher, and as a tutor for various tutoring agencies and after-school programs. I'm also trained in Montessori Math materials for lower and upper elementary. Hablo Espanol tambien. :-) I hope to work with you soon!

While in college, I tutored students in various Math course ranging from Calculus to Linear Algebra. My students went on to get a deep understanding of the subject material and did very well in the classes I tutored them in. I believe for a student to learn, it takes effort on both the student's part and the teacher's. I take my time to fully understand what the student's weaknesses are and how to approach them while instilling confidence in the student.

From understanding basic numbers for Pre-K students to studying for the ACT and ACT, I help explain math in everyday language.

With a background in Meteorology I have a unique talent for finding real world applications for math and science.

I've always had a passion for education since I was a little girl. Math, in particular, has always come naturally to me. As result, I've always been able to offer a helping hand break down math problems in a way that is simple and easy to understand. I have over 2 years of experience putting my teaching method into practice and I've seen its success. My lessons are customized and catered to the needs of each student. Not only will you be achieving the grades you want in no time, but you will be building a strong foundation of numbers and operations, algebra, geometry and measurement, data analysis, statistics, probability and more. Let's get started!

I LOVE teaching math, and my passion shows. I especially enjoy teaching students to explore math through inquiry and hands-on exploration. Those moments when my students reach deep understanding and can finally apply it to solving difficult problems motivate me every day!

Rest assured, also, that my teaching methods for math are always based on recent research on how the human brain learns. In order to earn my teaching certification, I needed to pass a rigorous MTEL exam through Massachusetts on PreK-8 math concepts, as well as take multiple courses in elementary and middle school math methods aligned to the Common Core standards, including "Core Math: Numbers and Operations, Function, Geometry and Algebra" and "Math Methods in the Elementary School." I received a 780 on my math SAT when I took it in high school. Though most of my courses have focused on teaching younger students, I have mastery over high school curriculum, as well, and have been able to apply the central theories of
