1:1 Private Tutoring (K-7th Grade)

Service Description

Does your child struggle with or hate math, science, or reading? Is homework a constant battle? This course will help solve those frustrations. Prior to our scheduled meeting time, students and parents will be able to tell the me what they are struggling with and I will design the tutoring session around those needs. Having taught over 22 years in a full time classroom and hundreds of students, I know how to redirect confusion, stop-out misconceptions, and break down difficult concepts into small manageable pieces. I have worked with students of all levels and ages, and can design our tutoring time together to not only the target a specific skill or concept, but also adapt sessions to the student's best learning style. Some students prefer direct instruction, some like games. During this class, students will receive the tailored and individualized help they need to gain confidence and success in school. Topics for math may include all the mathematical domains including: Numeracy: (place value and number sense) Operations: (Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication, and Division) Algebraic Thinking: (Writing and interpreting equations and relating abstract thinking with concrete modeling and diagrams) Geometry: (Shapes, Angles, Area, Perimeter, Volume) Reading topics can include: Phonics and spelling patterns Prefixes, Suffixes and Root Words Fluency Comprehension Science Topics: Biology Earth Science Physical Science Environmental Science
