Howdy! My name is Yinxiao (Agnes) Y., a great Math fan and an experienced tutor, majoring in Math Education at New York University. I have worked with students of various ages and levels for more than 5 years. I enjoy helping students build confidence in manipulating Math while patiently guiding them to progress.

I have experience teaching in 1st, 3rd and 4th grade classrooms as a general practice teacher. In terms of tutoring experience, I tutored Math and Science at Kingsborough College, as well as group tutoring 8th graders. And I am currently tutoring Math at Robert Fulton Middle School for the New York University-America Counts Department. I really enjoy teaching and tutoring.

Based on my experience and what I have learned from my major, I generated some effective tutoring strategies: connecting new/complicated knowledge with prior/simpler knowledge so that students can comprehend better and easier; explaining knowledge with detailed demonstrations; reinforcing students' understanding with related exercise; helping students recognize and avoid common misunderstanding and pitfalls and so on. The effectiveness of these methods has already successfully been proven by my former students' great progress.

You can communicate with me in English, Mandarin Chinese and Cantonese. I am also proficient in reading and writing the language I listed above. Please feel free to contact me if you are interested in having me as your tutor or if you have any further questions. I look forward to working for you and your kids, and am ready to pour every single ounce of my knowledge to help you kids.

Algebra 1

Algebra 1 is one of my favorite and best math courses. I have lots of tactics on solving Algebra problems. Those tactics have helped my students get great improvement.

Algebra 2

Algebra 2 is also one of my favorite and best subjects. Strategies I used to solve Algebra 1 problems work very well on solving Algebra 2 problems, too. This was proven by my former students' progress.

Calculus

I have experience tutoring college Calculus for 2 semesters. My students said that they learned more problem solving strategies from me than from their professors.

Grammar

Grammar is one of the main elements that influence your reading skill, which will eventually affect your comprehension to other subjects. I can help you improve both your grammar and reading level at the same time by comparing and contrasting the difference and similarity of various grammar points, as well as building connections between your prior grammar understanding and new knowledge.

Geometry

I have experience tutoring Geometry in middle and high school classrooms. I have successfully helped my co-teachers polish their demonstrations, so that students could have better understanding on geometric concepts.

Microsoft Word

what people familiar most about Microsoft Word is typing, which is the most commonly used function of Word. If you want to learn more interesting fact and applications of it such as inserting picture PowerPoint to a desired position, commenting on other's word documents, making your paper look more professional and so on, I am sure I can help you because I'm knowledgeable in every single aspect of Microsoft Word.

Microsoft PowerPoint

Do you need to do demonstration in front of a group of people to convey your idea? A great PowerPoint presentation can polish your demonstration and will distinguish you from other competitors. As an Education major student, I have to do a lot of demonstrations. The PowerPoint skill I put on my presentation greatly helps me draw my audiences' attention while making all my points clear to them. If you need help on polishing your PowerPoint skill, I can absolutely give you a hand.

Prealgebra

Prealgebra is the prerequisite of further Algebra courses. I know how to consolidate students' Prealgebra knowledge so that they could have solid foundation to comprehend and master Algebra.

Precalculus

Precalculus is the prerequisite of Calculus courses. At the meanwhile, it is the composite of many other math knowledge such as balancing and solving equations you learned in Algebra, handling circle problems you learned in Geometry, solving trig functions you learned in Trigonometry and so on. As a Math fan, I can easily help you master your Precalculus by guiding you build connections between your prior knowledge and the new knowledge you encounter in Precalculus.

Reading

Reading skill is fundamental to all other academic aspects, so reading skill is very important to a student. Students' vocabulary quantity and grammar level are the main categories that influence their reading skill. Thus, I usually improve my students' reading level by helping them increase their vocabulary quantity and improve grammer knowledge in an interesting way.

Trigonometry

From my learning and tutoring experience, I gathered many the effective methods to understand trig functions such as building connections and using figures.

Statistics

Do you have any wondering on using sample results to estimate population situations, building connections between Confidence Level, Confidence Interval, Significance Level, Z-score, Margine of Error and P-value, reading the Tables in the appendix, calculating the probability and expected value of an event, operating a Hypothesis Test or any other aspects on Statistics? Ask me for help. And all of these questions will become crystal clear.

SAT Math

I always enjoy solving SAT Math problems when I was a high school student. Now, I enjoy helping my students build their confidence and skills manipulating it while they are having fun in it. Also, my eagle eye for common misunderstandings and pitfalls of SAT Math teaches my students how to avoid making mistakes.

Probability

Do you have problems on telling the difference between combination and permutation, solving conditional probability, applying the complementary probability method or anything else you may encounter in probability problems? I can make them crystal clear, nice and easy to you.

ACT Math

I enjoyed solving ACT problems and helping my classmates with it while I was still a student. I'm sure I can give you a hand if you struggle in or like to polish it.

Elementary Math

I have experience teaching in 1st, 3rd and 4th grade classrooms as a practice teacher. I'm quite sure how to help youngsters improve their math knowledge and skills based on their specific levels.

Elementary Science

Helping youngsters build connection between real life and scientific knowledge is an effective way to let them comprehend and be interested in Science. I have helped my young students become manipulative on Science by using this method.
