Samantha

Certified Tutor

I got my bachelors in mathematics form Columbus State University and am currently getting my Masters of Arts in Teaching from Mercer University. I have been a private tutor for the past six years, and I worked as a tutor for my university for 4 and a half years. While I was there, I was part of starting a new program to help students that tested into prealgebra classes. After graduation, I worked as an assistant center director at a Mathnasium for about 8 months, until graduate school led to a time conflict. I tutor almost every type of high school or college math, from algebra to Calculus and differential equations, but I have worked with students as young as first grade, which allows me to help students when they are struggling with concepts that are needed in order to work on their current subject. I love tutoring all types of math. I think that everyone can learn math, and that the key is to get to know the students learning style and to explain concepts in the way that makes the most sense to them. You can tutor five different students over the exact same concept, and each session will be different because how I teach depends on the student. I am an all around nerd, so I love puzzles and reading and things like that. I also love crafting as well as wood working and painting.
