Experience
I am a tutor available in Oakland, Michigan. I enjoy tutoring students and being there when they finally begin to understand a subject that we have been working on. Nothing feels better than when I get to see the "light bulb" light up for my tutoring clients.I can work with students in a variety of topics, from elementary and middle school mathematics to social studies, geography, and grammar and mechanics. I can work with students on study skills, organization, and even test preparation, whether they are working to prepare for the SSAT at the elementary or middle levels or the ISEE. I always set out with the goal of helping my students gain in confidence and self-esteem as they learn.I start by getting to know my students, keeping a positive attitude, and developing a positive relationship. I make sure to talk with parents and guardians frequently, honestly giving them my opinion on their student's progress.When it comes to students, I work hard to prepare lessons that are right for each student; every student has a different learning style and I want to support each of my student's differences.During my free time, I enjoy reading for pleasure, gardening, spending time boating, and traveling.
