I firmly believe that every student can achieve academic success, especially when they are inspired, so I try to connect students to subjects based on their hobbies and interests. By tapping into their personal passions, I aim to create a vibrant and engaging learning environment that sparks enthusiasm and cultivates a genuine love for the subject matter.

My teaching philosophy revolves around meeting students where they are, providing the necessary support and guidance to unlock their learning capabilities. I try to build relationships with students to help them to relax enough to ask questions and be willing to fail; one of my favorite things to tell students is that “mistakes are welcome here!”

Frequently Asked Questions

What do parents need to know about finding a tutor?

Finding a tutor can be challenging. With independent tutors, word of mouth is crucial. However, opting for an online tutoring company provides the advantage of online reviews, a comprehensive website showcasing available tutors, and a diverse pool of high-quality options. Parents should prioritize a tutor’s years of experience, state certification, expertise, education, and personality. Ultimately, customer reviews offer valuable insights into a tutor’s effectiveness.

Does my child need a tutor?

Being actively involved in your child’s education is the best way to determine if your child needs a tutor. Staying in touch with their teachers, understanding their grades versus their peers, and knowing how satisfied they are with what they are doing in school are the best ways to know if your child needs a little extra help. Additionally, sometimes it may not even be a case of your child being behind, but noticing if they are dissatisfied with their academic performance and want to get ahead. These are several signs you may need to find a tutor.

What should students new to online tutoring expect?

Online learning can be an adjustment for those new to it. Online tutoring sessions involve logging into a virtual classroom where the student and tutor will interact via video chat. Much like an in-person tutoring session, online tutoring companies offer a dedicated space where the student and tutor will discuss concepts, practice problems, and utilize tools like a whiteboard to go over examples.

What advantages do tutoring companies have over independent tutors?

It’s easier to trust a tutoring company that has established itself because it has a reputation to protect, more resources available, and the ability to provide guarantees and resolve customer service issues in favor of the customer. Independent tutors often feel that they have to look out for themselves first and foremost, which may not always result in the best experience. Additionally, tutoring companies are able to better vet their tutors and ensure they are safe for your child.

What does research show about the effectiveness of online tutoring?

It’s natural to wonder if online tutoring can foster the necessary one-on-one connection for a successful learning relationship. It’s an essential question we have asked, too. The research demonstrates that online tutoring is effective in helping students learn new material, improve their test scores, and grow more confident academically. Harvard research and the Fordham Institute concluded that online tutoring can substantially benefit a child’s academic performance, socioeconomic skills, and general sense of well-being.
