Patrick C. ...My way of teaching is not simply giving answers but leading students to the solutions, teaching them the way of thinking to make the solution intuitive. Not only does this method allow students to better remember what they studied, but it also gives them confidence in solving similar problems. I teach in a friendly, informal atmosphere where there is no pressure to make the correct answer.

Michael S. A strong liberal arts education and a long career in statistical modeling have left me filled with facts and skills that I am motivated to pass on. Most important of these is a strong intuition for rooting out problems in analyses and finding alternative ways to make things work. I believe these are both teachable skills.

Louise A. ...Prealgebra is a very important subject since it is the foundation for a new language, the language of algebra. Since algebra simply imitates your knowledge or how to use and apply numbers, the next step is simply using "x" instead of the number. If you remember this and get a strong foundation, the future challenges will be easier to understand in depth!

Bonnie K. ...I have experience helping students raise their grades, and also targeting specific topics (English, SAT prep, etc.) for high achievers. I am very open to communicating with parents and students about their specific needs, and encourage success through self-belief. I have experience with casual interactions with middle and high school students, having been a leader at my church youth group.
