Award-Winning Math Tutors for Students in Milwaukee, WI

...family of teachers. I find there is an important creative aspect to most academic subjects that often gets overlooked, especially in math. I try to incorporate this into my tutoring because it really seems to help people connect with the concepts. In my free time I enjoy making things and exploring what others have made, whether in music, programming, writing, games, or art. I received my BA in Mathematics from Arizona State University, and subsequently...

...at the University of St. Thomas, and I am double majoring in Biology and Data Analytics. Consequently, my interests lie in life sciences and math: I am passionate tutoring biology, chemistry, and math related subjects. Outside of class, I love singing (I am in choir) and being outside, as well as spending time with friends and family. We all must learn how to learn, and that is what education should teach first.

...and work as an adjunct faculty member at two local universities because I enjoy precepting new nurses and teaching students. I love to watch the light bulbs turn on and see students make connections between what they learn in class and their practice in real healthcare settings! I believe that a strong foundational knowledge of pathophysiology, theory, and evidence-based practice is important to help students and new nurses make the best decisions in the clinical...

...of Education in Instructional Technology from Cardinal Stritch University. I have taught at St. Thomas More High School in Milwaukee for 16 years. I enjoy working with students of all ages and abilities. I particularly enjoy tutoring because learning goals are more easily realized in a low student to teacher ratio. When I am not teaching, I love spending time with my family. I also enjoy running, biking, obstacle racing, and adventure racing.

...and in small groups. My favorite areas to teach are: READING (K-8) including but not limited to vocabulary, word recognition and comprehension and WRITING (K-8) including but not limited to spelling, beginning writing and writing assignments. These are my favorite subjects because I believe there is a lot of overlap in reading and writing and that success in these areas creates a strong foundation for what lies ahead in and out of school. Strengthening these...

...Rockford College (now Rockford University), graduating cum laude with honors in liberal art. I became a licensed educator after completing the Post-Baccalaureate Teacher Preparation program with Western Governors University. My tutoring focus is Elementary Reading, Phonics, and Elementary Math.

I worked for the Boys and Girls Club part-time in an after school enrichment program that emphasized improving reading and math...

...to pursue a PhD starting this fall, where I plan to focus on Cancer Immunology. But beyond research, I've always enjoyed teaching. I've tutored high school students in Chemistry, Geometry, and Precalculus; college students in Genetics and Chemistry; and younger learners in elementary-level reading, math, and general studies through summer school programs. No matter the age or subject, I believe learning is most effective when it's interactive, engaging, and tailored to each student. I focus...

...students. Therefore, I like to know a bit about a student's life, both in and outside the classroom. It is essential for creating a unique learning plan. I teach students "how" to think, rather than just "what" to think. This, I believe, is the cornerstone of effective problem solving and innovation. Asking Google or Alexa for an answer is not permitted with my students UNLESS the student has a solid grasp of the subject matter...

...education and life experiences as a guide to living in general and in my personal interactions with others. In teaching, I combine my extensive educational background with related professional experience. I am willing to go an extra mile for all students who are willing to make a serious commitment to learning. It is my personal opinion, the use of common sense, will lead to rational and logical life decisions. Often this leads an individual to...

...we hold great responsibility to bring equity to a wide range of students and build personal relationships to help them grow. It takes many unique skills and experience to be able to teach today's youth, as well as adapting which is something that really motivates me to continue to keep teaching. I have always been inspired by my teachers, and have wanted to make the same impact on the lives of others.

...found that I have a real passion for it. Beyond the classroom, I've also taught snowboarding lessons and instructed lifeguard and CPR/AED certification courses through the American Red Cross. Those experiences have exposed me to a wide range of learners, from teaching a 4-year-old how to snowboard to teaching a 70-year-old how to do CPR. This has taught me how to adjust a lesson to meet individual needs and how to encourage people to do...

...a class in which which I traveled to a local elementary school to teach underprivileged children and excite them about the STEM field (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics). In dental school, I have volunteered at a local after-school program, tutoring and mentoring children, specifically in math and english. It has always been a joy of mine to ignite a passion for the STEM field in students who never thought they could be a part of...

...experience tutoring experience is with Math, and I have tutored from Pre-Algebra through Calculus 2. Through high school I also had the opportunity to work with 4th and 5th grade students.

I am an avid believer of having a strong math based foundation, and quick mental math skills,...

...builds student confidence to be able to obtain paid internships or entry-level positions upon graduation. My strength as an Instructor/Tutor comes from being able to relate to students. I had experiences in college with coding instructors who were great coders but not great at translating that knowledge into concepts I could break down and understand as a student. I strive to start small and work up to greater complexity because of this. I believe that...

I thoroughly enjoy assisting students with a wide range of abilities on academic work and life skills....

...education. The methods I employ are based on a system used in Japan called "zensho itashimasu", which not only shares the concepts used in Blooms Taxonomy and Kolbs Learning Styles, but also expands and complements implementation of lessons in math that might otherwise be intractable due to situations dealing with, say, math anxiety. As one colleague put it: Zensho itashimasu is to western education as a game of 'go' is to chess.... Essentially, it is my...
