Award-Winning Middle School Math Tutors for Students in Cleveland, OH

...Kenyon College, a small liberal arts school an hour out of Columbus, Ohio, majoring in Philosophy. It is difficult to identify a specialty of mine because I have worked with students from 1st grade through high school on topics ranging from elementary science to trigonometry test prep, but my foremost strength is the three sections of the SAT. I have roughly three years of experience tutoring and last year taught a test prep class. My...

...and on their standard tests. I've had particular success with closing the gender gap for my classes. On average, boys do 12% better than girls on their standard tests in science and math, but in my classes, there was no gender gap. All students did significantly higher than their school wide and statewide peers. I attribute this primarily to the ideas of teaching for understanding, using a gradual release of responsibility in solving problems, and...

...endeavor to interest students in any topic (but especially math) by giving them a sense of a larger context. In particular, I love to bring college-level math concepts to students in a way anyone can understand, which often demonstrates WHY the math they're doing matters. It also shows that math can be just plain cool, which I don't think our curricula prioritize enough. Besides teaching, I enjoy practicing parkour and tricking (acrobatic martial arts), playing...

...I began tutoring during my sophomore year, about three years ago. I have had experience tutoring in major core subjects found in most High School curriculums, I am most passionate and confident while teaching Mathematic and Science subjects including Algebra 2, Trigonometry, Geometry, Calculus and Chemistry.

I spent the past year proctoring an Academic Learning Pod in Cleveland, where I worked with students from Kindergarten through tenth grade. I love to...

...Case Western Reserve University for Biomedical Engineering. In high school, I was a member of the Peer Tutoring and Programming Club and enjoy working with students, primarily in math and science. My favorite subjects are physics and chemistry because they are not based on memorization, but rather on the application. My learning philosophy is focused on practice problems. First, one should understand in-depth how and why the problem can be solved. Afterwards, doing more practice...

...University where I majored in Elementary Education. I also received my reading certification at that time and have used my degrees to educate students from Kindergarten through 5th grade. I have worked with students who have a wide range of academic abilities.

...a mathematician and an educator. I believe that everyone should have access to a quality education and that often times our education system does little to prepare students for the real-world, or devalues the material to the point where students ask why they are learning any of the subjects. I believe that a solid understanding of the basic of mathematics improves the quality of life one can experience, and having a solid understanding of the...

...an educator, and I received an excellent public school education through high school. When I entered college, I had earned enough credits (English, Biology, Calculus) to be a sophomore, technically. I used the openings that created to explore some unusual subjects: golf, martial arts, and living in Mexico for a semester. When I continued on to my MS, I had a graduate fellowship with the Political Science department. That gave me my first opportunity to...
