Every student learns at their own pace, in their own way. Some students are visual learners, some auditory, some prefer a hands on approach, some need a combination. For each student, certain concepts will be quick to grasp while others may take time. In a classroom these individual needs cannot always be met for every student, and they can begin to struggle. One way to approach this problem is through personalized, one on one tutoring. Focused attention and instant feedback can identify challenges and adapt to the exact support a student needs, so they can build confidence, motivation, and understanding.
Some examples of techniques I use:
- Assess the student's strengths and areas for improvement
- Understand the student’s learning style
- Set clear goals based on where the student is at and where they want to be
- Create a comfortable learning environment
- Adapt the pacing to keep the content both engaging and manageable
- Provide thoughtful feedback that can be utilized for growth
- Incorporate the student’s interests to boost engagement and comprehension
- Use flexible teaching methods
- Continuous assessment and adjustment
- Build confidence by celebrating achievements
The price of in person tutoring ranges from $40-50 per hour, depending on student needs, the amount of necessary preparation before the lesson, etc.
The price of online tutoring ranges from $30-40 dollars per hour.
Price can be negotiated for special circumstances, for example lessons longer than an hour, multiple students scheduled back to back, etc.
