Engineering student offering math tutoring and standardized test preparation in Nashville and online to motivated learners around the world!
Methodology
For my classroom mathematics tutoring, I typically utilize classwork, homework, quizzes, and tests for lessons. I have current clients that range from the 8th grade through 12th grade, and I have experience tutoring at all age and skill ranges from the 6th grade through sophomores in college.
For my standardized test preparation tutoring of the math sections, I utilize a diagnostic test in conjunction with a self-written test prep guide with over 200 questions and answers.
For my English and Writing students, I take an individual approach based on the needs of the specific client. I do not have one single approach for these students as the students' needs vary drastically in this section as compared to my other services.
Background
I am an engineering student at Vanderbilt University with 2.5 years of experience and many satisfied clients. I have taught over a dozen clients, most of whom worked with me for a year or longer as I love to work with clients and fuel their growth in their chosen subject matter. All of my clients have achieved A's in their classes or seen improved scores on their standardized tests.
Rates
Details
My standardized test preparation tutoring is $60/hour.
