CS student teaching mathematics for grades 3-10. Trying to instill intuitive and systematic thinking, and to cultivate motivation and genuine interest in math.

Details

- The diagnostic consultation is mandatory! In the consultation, I'd like to speak to the parents (preferably with the student present) for the first half, and speak just to the student for the second half. We will figure out goals, constraints, and if feeling a compatibility, possible logistics.

- For in-person visits, every session is actually booked as a 1 hour and 30 minutes session, which will count only as one full hour + one quarter of an hour. This is to account for any delays, unproductive time, small breaks during, and the fact that I open every session by having the student solve some questions and then going through them together, before officially starting the lesson.

- I strongly prefer in-person sessions; I don't really believe you can learn math well online. In order to make this easier for parents who'd like to keep their home a family-only space, I'm also able to meet at any public space available, such as study rooms offered by the library (or the student's school), or even in open-air spaces, weather permitting. Feel free to propose any location.

- I am open to being booked for group classes. The upper limit for group classes is 5 students, with the conditions that a) all students must be in the same grade, and preferably in the same class, and b) all students must have a a private 1-on-1 session per a number of group classes, in order to address any individual gaps/needs they might have. This number can be decided during the consultation. Additionally, I can waive this requirement if I feel a specific student doesn't have any additional needs (you will not be charged if it is waived, of course).

- It is much appreciate if you have a whiteboard available in this location. If not, I will bring something to that effect with myself.

- I'm currently crafting an online form that contains most of the questions that I'd need to ask during the consultation; I think it'd be able to jump-start this process. It will be added here once it's done!
