I strive to help students feel confident in any subject, but especially in mathematics. My philosophy is to never give up, and to try and try until we succeed!

Get to the know the student, and address strengths and weaknesses in mathematics.

I have students do practice problems with me and then on their own. This is how they become successful!

I keep them engaged in the lesson by relating it to everyday life. I also help them understand the concept in many different ways. I will keep up with the student and keep them motivated through every aspect of the subject.

This is where an intervention would come in. If the skill or concept is too difficult, I would go back to the basics of the skill that came previously and master that skill. Then, we'd go back to the original skill the student had issues with and master it!

I would let the student chose a book or something they are really interested in and want to know more about through reading.

I want to start off knowing the student's learning habits, and I want to keep them engaged.

For math especially, I'd let them know it may be difficult, but math can be learned, and it will be helpful in everyday situations.

I will constantly assess them with formative and summative assessments.

I keep them motivated and practicing on these skills until they finally master them! Also I tell them that I know they can do it on their own.

I base my assessment on their knowledge in their educational journey of mathematics.

It depends on the student, how much they learn and what type of learner they are. Some students are visual learners, auditory learners, or tactual learners.

Videos, step by step explanations, props, whiteboard, and, if needed, a calculator.
