As a master teacher who taught a university course on effective teaching methods, I know that what matters in tutoring is not what content the tutor knows, but how effectively the tutor is able to help each student gain understanding and skills. That is my specialty - high-quality, scientifically-based effective instruction. While I currently work as a school counselor, I am also a CT certified math teacher grades 7- 12, and I taught math as a classroom teacher for 9 years. Additionally, I ... Read more

This is a collaborative process built on mutual trust. I started tutoring in 2004, working with high school and middle school students who needed academic support in math. The objective was to improv... Read more

I have always liked the simplicity and logical nature of Math and try to transmit that feeling to Math learners so they may gain confidence. Without confidence, learning any subject is much more difficult. I enjoy helping students explore their way to the solution with the Socratic method which is me asking questions and the student answering in a way that gets them closer and closer to the answer. I have taught Mathematics at the grade school, high school and college level. I have taught... Read more
