...I like to take a conceptual approach to one-on-one tutoring. If students don't understand the underlying mechanics, then how could they ever truly learn mathematics?

...I will meet at whatever public library is closest to the student. I work with all ages, from lower elementary to adult/GED-type needs and anything in between. I specialize in Algebra and to a lesser extent Geometry, but prefer not to teach trigonometry or calculus (for future purposes). I am excellent at what I do, because it's what I have focused on for years. (read more)
