Does This Sound Familiar?
Both you and your child are struggling with elementary math
Practicing addition facts and times tables is driving you to tears
Your child is frustrated with “school math” and
“a right way” of doing things
Wish you knew someone who could make it all make sense?
I can help.
How Do I Work?
I know that all children (and adults) already have an intuitive sense of math principles gained by interactions with the world.
I strive for a low-demand atmosphere that allows students choice and autonomy. Authentic relationships and trust building are key for learning to happen.
I get to know your kid. I learn how your child sees things and work with them to connect their “kid sense” to more formal mathematics.
I create math tasks that allow kids to solve problems and think for themselves. Not only is this more interesting than worksheets, it’s backed by educational research!
I work with individual students and small groups. I also work with parents who need support preparing for IEP and 504 processes.
My rates are $60 per session for individual students. Rates for small groups vary depending on the number of students and how many sessions are planned. Session times run about 45 to 60 minutes depending on your child’s stamina and the activities we work on.
