Angie's Tutoring
|
|
| Attention to Each Student | Tutoring centers usually assign a teacher to oversee several students at once; time is wasted as a teacher helps others. | As a private tutor, Angie gives complete attention to one student at a time. This helps the student progress faster. |
| Tutor Qualifications | Tutoring centers may hire instructors who are not licensed in math or experienced with math curriculum. | Angie is a licensed teacher and experienced math tutor. She also has extensive curriculum development experience. |
| Understanding Students' Thinking | Many tutors teach based on the way they learned the topic, and do not understand "new math" approaches that a student might be trying to use. | Angie has extensive experience with both traditional and new math instruction techniques, so she can easily diagnose and correct misconceptions. |
| Retention of Concepts | Many tutors teach students recipes and tricks, without helping students see why methods work. Tricks may be forgotten quickly. | Angie helps students learn the conceptual basis for math methods and techniques, which leads to better recall and thinking skills. |
| Teaching Materials | Tutoring centers often use one-size-fits-all worksheets and curriculum materials. | Angie chooses curriculum materials and activities from her extensive collection, based on a student's needs. |
| Telling Answers | Tutors often "help" by showing students the work for a problem. For most math improvement, students need to do the work! | Instead of telling the answers, Angie uses questioning techniques to relate new content to what the student already knows. Students learn to figure out the answers! |
