"The most important thing I've learned from tutoring is that energy, empathy and character make a great teacher, far above and beyond mastery of the topics and skills that need teaching. Somewhere down the road I gained a genuine interest in seeing my students succeed- not just at getting the grades they were after, but in gaining the kind of perspective and motivation that helps them do what they really want to do, long after our last session or their last final.

"I adapt the tutoring approach to the needs of the student and am patient. I enjoy working with students of all levels. I explain the concepts in ways that are easy to understand. In mathematics often if you are having problems, you missed something earlier on, so I try to identify what basic areas you need work in, and help you understand the fundamentals first and move on to the more difficult problems you are working on currently."

"Hello! My name is Andrea and I have been tutoring students for as long as I can remember. I started with peer tutoring in high school, worked for a tutoring company in college, and continued tutoring individual students after college. I think that the one-on-one attention that tutoring provides students can definitely make the difference between passing and failing. When I tutor, my main goal is to break down convoluted topics to the major concept."
