I am a recently retired math instructor with the status of full professor from a community college in CA. Having primarily worked with developmental math students, ages 6-65, I used to wonder why some students "got it" while others did not. This concern prompted me to study research brain theory and learning styles. What I discovered opened a useful and successful teaching method for connecting with math students at every level. I like to determine a student's preferred style of learning...

Well-prepared, personable, and knowledgeable tutor
My daughter had been struggling in Algebra 1 and wasn't particularly thrilled about starting tutoring. Beth F. put my daughter at ease, explained concepts in a way that was easy to understand, and double-checked for understanding. Beth F. clearly has years of experience teaching and working with students. We're very happy she was able to help our daughter.

Beth changed her schedule to accommodate a sudden problem I had. We worked through the Algebra I needed help with and I got the help I needed. She is patient and very knowledgeable.

Knowledgeable and patient
Beth establishes the tutorial relationship by determining your "learning style", which tells her how to adequately teach you. She breaks down the concepts, and provides easy to understand tips. She's awesome, and has helped me greatly improve my grade!

Just what I was looking for.
I knew right off, that Beth was the tutor for my child when I read her work and teaching history. She nailed it when she referred of how a student "gets it". Everyone learns a different way and if the teacher or tutor recognizes that and builds the lessons around a students learning style, they are bound to succeed. I would happily refer Beth to anyone.

Excellent Tutor - highly recommend
Beth began with understanding my daughters learning style and from there was able to teach Algebra, organization skills and goalsetting. She was quick able to figure out where my daughter needed help. I highly recommend Beth. She has really made a difference in my daughters life. In fact, on my daughters first Algebra test she scored an 86%.
