Award-Winning Finite Mathematics Tutors for Students in Norfolk, VA

...That is more reason why I should tutor others. I have a deeper understanding why students struggle in their subjects. I know where the roadblocks are and how to overcome them. I no longer have trouble hearing ever since I undergone ear surgery and changed my life dramatically. I still feel like I am playing catch up, but that seems not to be the case in all areas. Everyone is playing catch up in at...

...new every day and I encourage all of my students to do the same. I know that some subjects are not the most interesting to every student, but I do my best to make each topic applicable to real life. I also make sure it is fun- because if you're going to learn something it may as well be enjoyable. I know that all students learn differently, so I incorporate a number of different teaching...

As an English teacher, creating a sense of excitement in reading and writing is what I wanted students to always strive for in their academic lives. Literature and composition played an essential role in my life, and I hope students will feel the same as they explore their imagination and curiosity. When a student tells me they just read ".........." and loved it, I feel inspired by them and encourage them to continue learning forever.

I enjoy tutoring more than any other work I've had, because students come to me with a great desire to do better academically. All teachers need to remember that nobody wants to be left behind in their education. My primary goal is to help students find confidence in private, so they can be more confident in public.... I help students find their own way to make sense of Math, and then I show them how to...

I graduated from VCU in May 2015 with Magna Cum Laude and Honors distinction. In Fall of 2015 I started school at the University of Virginia School of Medicine.

...tutor for Huntington Learning Center. I am particularly interested in tutoring mathematics from high school through college level. My goal in teaching is to empower students to become leaders and have successful careers. My philosophy to tutoring promotes critical thinking, problem solving, collaboration, communication skills and most importantly creativity. Because student/mentor relationships are extremely important to student development, I like to encourage students as early as elementary school to enjoy Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics...

I will make it the ultimate goal of every student I tutor to understand absolutely everything that they have trouble with. I aim to help with critical thinking and inquiry so that the student not only solves the problem, but understands the concepts and where they need to be used.

I am a retired CPA with 35 years experience managing tax departments for bank trust departments. My most fulfilling experiences involved teaching, coaching and mentoring staff, associates and clients. I hope to do more of this as a tutor.

...people. A true "kid at heart," I am blessed with a good sense of humor that resonates with young folks. Experience has taught me how to effectively solve students' learning problems. I listen carefully to students and parents from session to session, find out how an individual best learns (visual, auditory, kinesthetic preference), observe as s(he) does problems to see why mistakes are being made, correct and give follow-up practice, all the while building the...

I heard someone say that everyone starts out liking math. But they meet that one math teacher or class or even a problem that intimidates them, possibly embarrasses them. And they build a wall and find it hard to continue liking math. I want to show them an easier way to understand the concepts; I want people to like math.

I'm a devoted mathematics teacher and find great purpose in enriching knowledge through mathematics. My passion for the discipline is exhibited through my thorough and structured methods of instructions.

...be enjoyed. I believe that while knowing the formulas and procedures is important, memorizing mathematical formulas without appreciating the concepts is akin to memorizing the lines of a Shakespeare play without paying attention to the underlying prose. My strongest subjects are linear algebra and pre-calculus though I am proficient at tutoring all high school and college underclassmen mathematical subjects. I hope that my passion is contagious and that all of my students leave me not only...

...working toward the third exam, studying advanced calculus and probability theory. I began tutoring in 2013 while working on my bachelor's degree, and have been doing so ever since.

Math is a life skill that can be very joyous, and this viewpoint is my ultimate goal when tutoring...

...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 find me playing or teaching piano, doing jigsaw puzzles, watching TED talks, running, or trying a new food or cooking technique.... A first session...

...or problem can be broken down into small steps and tackled bit by bit. This makes hard problems far less scary and produces steady reward for the solver. My role in your study will be to help you find the small components in a problem and tackle each one, and provide a patient voice of encouragement for you. If you practice solving any kind of problem this way, eventually you won't believe that you ever...

...patience and listening skills. Everybody learns at a different pace, so I think it's important to be open and adaptable to best serve each student's unique needs. I encourage students to ask questions, and see wrong answers as an opportunity for constructive feedback. Ultimately, I want tutoring to be something exciting and engaging for students instead of a chore. In my free time I love drawing, painting, and spending time in nature.
