...25 years. Many students feel like they're bad at math, when they're really just missing one or two key concepts. I enjoy one-on-one tutoring because I can talk to a student, identify issues, and help in understanding the concepts and ideas. We'll draw pictures and graphs to illustrate, and explain it all in language the student can understand. Hearing a student say "Is that all?" or "But that's easy!" makes my day.

...work hard to ensure that my students understand the basic concepts of the material as well as real world examples where this math would be valuable.

Besides just being more fun, research shows these methods are the most effective at helping students truly understand what they're studying because they have to think analytically rather than simply memorizing facts and figures. Good thinking skills leads to better problem solving, better test results, and better grades.
