FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is straightforward on an hourly basis. In the current environment, and because I am doing all tutoring at home, I have reduced my hourly rate to $40 an hour.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Different process for test prep vs. classes. With classes I ask the student to bring a current homework assignment or recent test I ask what they are having problems with or ask them to work through problems so I can watch and make suggestions. For test prep I suggest that they work through a sample test before we meet so we can concentrate on the areas of greatest difficulty.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have an undergraduate degree in math and was honored to be selected for Phi Beta Kappa. I hold advanced degrees in statistics. I have taught at the university level. I was head of the training and education department of a Fortune 100 company where I led a staff of more than 100 education professionals. I volunteered for several years at our local grade school where I worked with K-5 children on math and reading and learned the way that grade schools are teaching math today.
