Award-Winning Intermediate Algebra Tutors serving McKinney, TX

...recall. Students were engaged from bell to bell in Math, Reading, Science, and Social Studies. It is important to present information in the best way that students learn. Every learner has different modes of learning and has a propensity to certain multiple intelligences. It is the responsibility of the educator to expose the learner to as many modes and MIs as possible to guide the student towards mastery of content. My students enjoyed a variety...

I believe that all students can be successful. Allowing students to explore content in a variety of ways makes way for that success. It is my mission to not only help students achieve their academic goals but also develop the confidence needed to trust themselves through the learning process.

...teaching with Richland College. I am qualified and experienced teaching and tutoring grammar, reading, and writing, however, my passion is teaching Math! My teaching goals are as follows: 1. Improve student understanding of math and grades, 2. Increase Self Esteem, and 3. Gain Math confidence and an attitude that Math can be and is Fun ! I frequently use hands on Math Manipulatives, such as fraction circles, base ten blocks, coins, tens trays, and various...

I am a Senior computer science and statistics student at SMU. I am motivated by helping others, as well as earning money to pay for graduate school.

I am a graduate of The University of Texas at Dallas. I received my Bachelor of Science in Computer Science. While I tutor a broad range of subjects, I am most passionate about Math and Computer Programming. I believe education is important in building the future generation and making the world a better place. In my spare time, I enjoy reading books.

Hello awesome learners! My name is Lacey. I am a longtime tutor and teacher. I received my BS in Business from UTD, followed by my Teaching Certificate. I specialize in Math and English (pre-K through adults). That's children through Algebra (for now). With me, you'll pass, and we'll still have fun!

...students to learn. As part of this training, I paid several visits to high schools where I performed student observation, taught lessons in mathematics and computer science, communicated with students and their parents, supervised students outside the classroom, and counseled students for college and careers. I benefited greatly from these experiences; they helped me to improve my teaching skills, my ability to interact with students, their parents, and my colleagues, and they gave me confidence...

...supplement their education in school. From my experience so far, my teaching philosophy is to guide the student to the answer and not to force information on them. I try my best to provide them with a comfortable atmosphere where they have the confidence and curiosity to find the answer to problems themselves. I try to ask stimulating questions and provide relevant information and resources to help the students get where they need to be....

...to lead students to the answer rather than simply delivering it. This instills the logic behind the answer and the process, and helps them think independently and analytically. Where appropriate, I employ the Suzuki method and have found that to be very effective. I mostly tutor math, reading, and writing courses. I am very experienced with test preparation subjects such as SSAT/SAT and ACT. Please see my profile for a full list of subjects. In...

I like to help individuals feel better about their learning and confident that they can learn new things in a fun and exciting way.

...I graduated from Plano East Senior High in 2020. I tutor a broad range of subjects including math, science, and history. I became a mechanical engineering major because I love math and physics and learning to apply it. My love for learning does not stop at STEM and includes other fields such as history. I enjoy working one on one with students to help them achieve their goals and overcome any obstacles.

...the board room, my favorite hobbies involve sports, movies, and my friends and family. Football, basketball, tennis and soccer are my favorite sports, both to play and watch. Having grown up in the mountains of West Virginia, I am an avid skier and am excited to tackle the West Coast slopes. I'm a big fan of movies; recent favorites include Lincoln, The Hobbit trilogy, and Interstellar. I also enjoy working with the Joshua R. Zontek...

...getting lost in a good book or feeling the thrill of excitement at finally solving a difficult math problem, I feel that learning should be fun and viewed as a challenge, not a chore. Throughout my academic career, I have been a well-rounded student, excelling in math as well as language and literature. I am a notoriously good test-taker, a skill developed from solid study habits that I hope to pass on to future students....

...premed track pursuing a double major in computer science and biology. Early on in high school (Maggie L. Walker Governor's School graduate), I discovered a passion for helping others and I now have had hundreds of hours of tutoring experience in a wide range of subjects including chess, computer programming, math, and SAT prep. In addition to the subjects previously listed, I would also tutor Spanish and chemistry as they are subjects I am comfortable...

...student can surprise themselves with their own abilities is the best thing a tutor can ask for. For mathematics, I've taken up to Calculus BC in high school, and Multivariable Calculus at UCR. I understand the concepts, but I can also explain them using applicable examples. Really, math is like a language; you need to know the basics before you get speaking fluently. Math can be difficult, but it can be even more fun once...

...Organic Chemistry at Harvard. Outside of the classroom, I'm a part of Georgetown's club rugby team and also participate in GUMSHOE, a club that teaches math and science to inner city students. I also enjoy going for runs to the monuments in DC and playing in pickup soccer games! For me, I especially enjoy tutoring mathematics because I think it serves as a foundation for a number of other subjects and also enhances problem solving...

...excel on assignments and tests for more than five years. I strive to not only prepare students to exceed academic standards but also to be critical thinkers and curious, well-informed human beings. I recently completed a dual degree at Indiana University and moved to New York to take a gap year before beginning graduate school. As a scholarship student at IU, I majored in economics, cognitive science, and piano performance. Outside of tutoring, you can...

...me stand out as a tutor is my patience and ability to make students feel comfortable. Patience goes a long way when teaching a frustrated student. Being understanding of a student who is having difficulty picking up a concept, not displaying signs of frustration, and a willingness to repeat an explanation or finding a new way to explain a topic are key elements to being a good tutor. Helping others learn makes me feel as...

...started to understand the material. I strongly believe that understanding concepts is just as important as being able to work out technical problems, and that all students (regardless of perceived mathematical intelligence) have the ability to do so. I also understand how mathematics functions to gatekeep some students from certain majors and jobs later in life, and it is my hope that I can help provide access to these majors and jobs for the students...

...SAT score. Right now I'm a web developer! My academic success is linked to the amount I studied; however, I owe the majority of it to the wonderful professors and tutors I've had in my life. They've shown me that everyone has the potential to become a top student. I've been tutoring for over 4 years now and in that time, I've learned a ton of effective teaching methods. I've also learned many that don't...
