Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors for Students in Canton, OH

...community. As a teacher, I hope to motivate students to do their best and extend their own personal limits. In my classroom, students must commit to a level of performance that challenges them to reach their full potential. My expectations of my students are high, and by the end of the school year, students realize they can achieve any goal set before them. This is a valuable lesson that they can apply to their lives...

...enjoy working with students on test prep. My style as a tutor is to guide students through problems and provide advice and explanations rather than presenting the solutions and process immediately. This gives students the chance to learn the material both correctly and efficiently as they are actually working through the material. I also do my best to make my explanations of concepts accessible and explain them in simple ways that allow students to understand...

...received my Master’s Degree in Education. I am currently a sixth grade teacher, and I have worked with students at every learning level, from intervention to honors courses. While I as most passionate about 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...

...experience teaching as a substitute from 1st through 12th grade, including many assignments with students with developmental disabilities, where I was able to work with these students more on an individual basis. I have also taught many undergraduate laboratory classes in physics and biology. 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. I believe...

...graders on a daily basis. This is my third year being in this role. My strategy as a tutor is to guide students through the problems and provide explanations rather than giving the solutions and process immediately.

I enjoy and specialize in teaching math. Currently...

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 also have experience tutoring test prep subjects and focus both on the content material and test taking skills.

I am also available to work on college admittance essays and with public speaking. I teach much the...

...found that engaging a student in dialogue about the question at hand is far more successful than doing all of the talking. There's no better way of ensuring that a student understands the material than getting them to put it in their own words! Beyond my passion for learning and teaching I'm a huge sports fan who rarely misses an Ohio State football or basketball game. I also grew up a die-hard Cincinnati Reds fan,...

...Development. Beyond these classes, I also had a healthy, eclectic interest in a wide range of subject areas including Multivariable Calculus, Physics, and Film. It is also worth noting that I was able to accomplish all of this in three years, rather than four, due to my focus and success on AP tests. As for my specific tutoring experience, I have been teaching students since high school, and volunteering with local children of lower socioeconomic...

...tutoring experience if they are not the primary force behind solving the problems they bring to me, and as a result I consider myself as more of a resource to guide the student to the right solution rather than a solution manual to consult or a teacher to recapitulate a lecture. Of course, if what the student needs is a further explanation of lectured material, I am also happy to provide that, but I find...

...greatest passion lies somewhere between math, computer science, and linguistics. I've enjoyed helping and tutoring others since I was young -- probably influenced by my family of teachers. I find there is an important creative aspect to most academic subjects that often gets overlooked, especially in math. I try to incorporate this into my tutoring because it really seems to help people connect with the concepts. In my free time I enjoy making things and...
