Hi, I'm Renee! I have over 3 years combined tutoring and study strategies coaching experience. I've tutored a wide range of ages from elementary school math to college calculus. I really enjoy connecting with students and learning what motivates them, so I can figure out the best way to approach teaching a topic. The goal in my tutoring sessions is to make sure the student understands the underlying concept and can successfully complete problems without my help by the end.
My tutoring methods have developed from my experience coaching college students on general study skills and test taking strategies to help them be successful in all their classes, no matter the topic. I love to push the "work smarter not harder" motto that I used throughout college - simple but effective note taking methods, study skills and test taking strategies that combine with knowledge of the material to ensure the greatest chances of success.
When I'm tutoring, I use my experience as a study coach to look at the bigger picture of each student's journey. Most of the time, students aren't struggling in classes simply due to the content. Many factors like missing key pieces of pre-requisite skills, distractions, and test anxiety can knock down a student's confidence and reinforce their beliefs that they'll never succeed in a subject, or school in general. I believe every student has the ability to understand and succeed, once we figure out their needs and which strategies can work best for them.
Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions and I will provide a quick reply. I look forward to helping you gain confidence and skills in math subjects, plus develop strategies for acing classes and tests.
