Hannah: Westchester tutor

Certified Tutor

I am from Washington State and am currently getting my bachelor degree in mathematics and environmental science at St Olaf College in Northfield, MN. I am a tutor at my college for calculus 1 and 2, and have successfully worked with over 10 students over the course of the semester. While most of my current experience has to do with working with college age students, I have also worked with children from the ages 4 to 17 through gymnastics coaching. In addition, I have worked successfully with students with both ADHD and Autism. Currently I am available to tutor elementary and middle school level math as well as Algebra and Calculus 1, however I am most excited about tutoring for calculus because, while it is difficult, I feel like with some work, it can become fun for almost anybody who is taking the class. My philosophy when it comes to teaching and learning is that with the right kind of help and motivation, a student can master any subject they put their mind to. Hard work, patience, and respect from both the student and the teacher are key to creating a learning environment that can produce tangible results. I would say my tutoring style is adaptable. I tend to teach through examples, but I also pay attention to how a student learns best and try to adapt my teaching so they may take in information in the most effective way possible.
