Award-Winning Elementary Math Tutors in Cary, NC

...a great tutor is one who is able to 'work himself out of a job,' and that is a philosophy I personally believe in. I am not the kind of tutor who will just give you the answer to the problem and move on. My goal is to develop the student's understanding to the point where they will not need to ask me for help because I will have taught them well enough to use...

As cliche as it sounds, I love learning! I also love watching a student's face when that light bulb goes off and they just "get it." That's why I teach (and why I tutor) - to give students the most chances to have their light bulbs go off so that they can become the best students they can be!... I use a first session to get to know the student, let them get to know me, set expectations, and have them work through a couple of problems to see where they need extra help.

...academic performance, family friends and members of my local church would often ask me to tutor their children, a request I would grant as much as my schedule allowed. My professional experience with tutoring only began in college, when I was hired as a teaching assistant for the Duke TIP summer program. After graduation, I worked for an international test prep company for two years. In addition to teaching classes on the SAT, ACT, and...

...love teaching and making a difference in students lives. I love knowing that I made a difference to someone, even if it's just one person. My favorite moment is the lightbulb moment; when someone gets what you have been trying to explain! I have been a long term substitute and will begin teaching in the fall. I am a certified elementary teacher. I have worked with students of all ages, but love working with elementary...

...am a lover of learning, especially mathematics. I believe students learn best from people they like, so I always make it a point to build relationships with students and treating them with respect and dignity. I also believe that students learn through different means, so I differentiate instruction to meet the needs of the students. I look forward to meeting all of the wonderful students who want to learn math in exciting way and engaging...

...(now) husband. We now have two young boys and I have left teaching (at least temporarily) to stay at home with them. I'm really excited to tutor students, while being able to keep staying home most of the time with my kids. When I am not teaching or tutoring students, I love spending time with my family and friends. I enjoy being outside hiking, camping, boating, etc. I also love crafts and scrapbooking.

...certification in grades K-12. Teaching is and has always been my passion. However, school systems sometimes make it very difficult for me to meet the true needs of my students. Classrooms are most times overcrowded and we are mandated to serve students with a one size fits all curriculum.I truly believe that as I work with students, they begin to create their own curriculum based on their needs. I love tutoring because it gives me...

...year and we are enjoying it. I had some tutoring experience before but nothing formal. I helped some students in high school level in the mathematics and physics subject. Cause these are the subject I feel more comfortable with. I have a very visual and interactive approach with regards to tutoring. Cause I strongly believe that, for someone to really understand a concept, formula, law or theory, he/she must be able to visualize it of...

...All of my role models, including my mother, have been teachers since I was born, and I was thrust very early into the world of teaching myself. This made me want to continue the legacy and help others the way my family always had. For that reason, I started tutoring as early as I could. I truly feel a part of something greater when I can help others to understand, even if only a small...

I'm Grant! I'm a fourth year medical student in Norfolk, VA with a passion for teaching and seeing other succeed. I'm excited to be able to be a part of your education and work towards your success in whatever you hope to achieve. I've been involved in tutoring since middle school and am excited to have time to work with people interested in learning. ... Explore a little of the student's interests and figure out what they hope to achieve. I'd like to learn more about their learning style and what they're looking for in a tutor, while also explaining to them my expectations for them to make sure they are as successful as possible.
