Award-Winning Math Tutors for Students in Canton, OH

Emerson said that the secret of education is respecting the student. I have the greatest respect for that part of the human spirit that is curious and wants to learn. I find that if students feel they are listened to and heard, this allows them to feel encouraged. When they begin to understand that learning can be fun, the whole process becomes exciting and joyful. We are all curious and like to learn.

I am a chemical and environmental engineer of long experience who has a knack for explaining science and math concepts in ways that students can understand, helping them to get the concepts. I also help students with their homework in all those areas.

...writing and grammar, I also love to help students in the area of math because, as a middle school student myself, I often felt that math was just “confusing” and “too hard.” I never imagined that I would be a math teacher myself, but my own experience has helped me identify with my struggling students and help them to be CONFIDENT in their math skills! I understand that no matter what topic students are learning,...

These courses provide a great opportunity to work one-on-one with students who need some extra help and to make sure that everyone is comfortable with the topic being examined.

...(8 years), kindergarten, and preschool. I enjoy working with students in all grade levels and have discovered, no matter the student's grade level they all have something special to offer and great potential to learn. I understand that not all students learn the same way and have found success helping students to understand how they learn best. I think it is important to understand how a student learns before you can effectively teach the student.

My end goal is for you to understand the subject better and for you to leave our...

I graduated from San Jose State University with degrees in Philosophy/Religious Studies and Physics/Mathematics. Throughout college I tutored various math subjects, physics, and chemistry. After years in the business world I taught math with Denver Public Schools as a Blue Print Math Fellow. I am passionate about learning and helping others.
