I have noticed that math is not many students favorite subject. I am looking for an opportunity to tutor students having difficulty in some areas related to basic math through Algebra. I understand that the problems are sometimes intimidating, but I like to teach my students that the problem consist of words and numbers; therefore if they understand basic numbers and words, they can solve the problem. I look forward to helping students solve problems, practice and review concepts that need to be reviewed. I like to apply problems to real life situations or use examples from areas that interest the student. I first found my love for math in the 5th grade. My interest in math grew in the 6th grade and continued through high school. In high school is when it was confirmed - math is my favorite subject. I love that math concept build one after another - most of the time. I love the fact that knowing the basics, I can solve the problem without a calculator. Next, I enjoy teaching students and watching them grow. I like learning from the student because sometimes the student knows more than they think they know - they just need someone to point it out for them. I have learned and strongly believe that education and knowledge is one thing that cannot be taken away from an individual; therefore I love to teach my students confidence and encourage them to learn, and share this knowledge with them.
