About Dana

Hi! I’m a Chemical Biology and Mathematics double major at Case Western Reserve University, and I specialize in tutoring math for middle and early high school students. With a strong academic foundation in math and science, I bring both expertise and a student-centered approach to my teaching. My teaching method is clear, supportive, and highly personalized. I focus on making difficult concepts accessible by using visual tools, real-world examples, and a step-by-step approach that promotes deep understanding rather than memorization. Whether you need help preparing for a test, catching up on classwork, or simply improving your problem-solving skills, I’ll meet you where you are and help you move forward with confidence.

Teaching method: I focus on conceptual understanding, not memorization. I break down problems visually and step-by-step, using real-world examples and guided practice to build confidence. I encourage questions and always adapt my pace to the student's needs. My sessions are interactive, supportive, and focused on long-term mastery—not just short-term homework help. Typical lesson plan: Quick Warm-up (5–10 min) – Review key ideas from last session with a few short problems. Core Concept (20–25 min) – Teach or review the day’s topic (e.g., graphing cube root functions, solving equations), using examples and visual aids. Guided Practice (15–20 min) – Work through practice problems together, increasing difficulty as confidence grows. Wrap-up & Questions (5–10 min) – Summarize key takeaways and assign optional practice problems or study tips. What sets me apart: I’m a college student who recently mastered the same content, so I can explain it in a relatable, student-friendly way. I specialize in visual learning and function analysis, which are core parts of Algebra 1 and often the most challenging. I tailor every session based on the student’s textbook, learning style, and goals—whether that’s improving grades, prepping for tests, or just gaining confidence. Who this is for: 5th–10th grade students Students who learn best with visuals, examples, and patient explanations
