About Joanna

I provide personal, 1 to 1 tutoring which is tailored to the speeds and needs of every individual student. The key, I have found, is to let the student reach the answer themselves, just with an extra bit of guidance and help.



I started off by teaching my younger brother his elementary school subjects and was surprised when I discovered how enjoyable and rewarding the process was. Soon, I became a volunteer tutor.





I was a volunteer tutor for 1 year. I have worked mostly with students aged between 5 and 17 years old, as well as a handful of special needs children when I volunteered at a school for Autistic children. I specialise in basic math, statistics and economics tutoring as well as providing general homework help. I was a straight A student in elementary school and high school and am now an Economics major in San Jose State University. I have also been on the recieving end of tutoring numerous times so I know what works and what doesn't!

Typically for new students, I would first give them a short test or quiz to determine their strengths and weaknesses in the subject to figure out which areas to focus more time on. I would then create a timeline from then up until the student's exam dates and construct a tutoring structure to ensure that the classes stay on track. As we progress and have more classes together, I can then modify my teaching style to best fit my students, but keeping it as fun as possible, of course!

Make sure that you can bond well with your teacher because you will be spending quite some time together and you need to feel comfortable enough to voice all your questions. You will also need to have this bond in order to work together with your teacher towards your goal.

Also make sure that the teacher is able to tailor towards your needs and that their teaching style is compatible with your learning style.





I recently moved to San Jose to continue my undergraduate studies and was feeling homesick when my family surprised me with a visit. It was just the remedy I needed to regain my drive!



A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should have a general idea about the goals they want to achieve and what they are expecting to get out of a particular tutoring class.

They should also have an idea about how they study best, in order for the teacher to help them in the most effective and enjoyable way.
