Bio

I tutor AP Statistics exclusively.

I am a retired, NC Certified high school math teacher. I have been teaching and tutoring AP Statistics since 2009 and I was an AP Reader (grader). I have successfully tutored hundreds of students in statistics. Most indicated to me that they improved their scores on quizzes and tests in the classroom and many have indicated that they received 4's or 5's on the AP Exam after following my test prep recommendations.

I tutor AP Statistics exclusively.

I am a retired, NC Certified high school math teacher. I have been teaching and tutoring AP Statistics since 2009 and I was an AP Reader (grader). I have successfully tutored hundreds of students in statistics. Most indicated to me that they improved their scores on quizzes and tests in the classroom and many have indicated that they received 4's or 5's on the AP Exam after following my test prep recommendations. Students often expect AP Statistics to be "an easy AP" since it is not Calculus. AP Statistics is, however, a deceptively difficult course. It is not a typical math course. It is more like a science course that uses math and the concepts are often not intuitive.

I can relate to both struggling and high achieving students. As a classroom teacher and as a private tutor, I have spent hundreds of hours tutoring those students who struggled to get the material in a classroom with 30+ students. In a one-on-one situation, they often flourish. As a high achiever myself - I was Valedictorian of Apex High School in 1968 and a summa cum laude graduate of the University of Michigan School of Engineering - I can relate to the desire to make A's and the stress that arises when one has signed up for too many difficult courses at the same time. I have a talent for uncovering the true needs of individual students and helping them succeed. When tutoring, my focus depends on the student's goals. I am always cognizant of what the student may need to succeed in the class itself. If the student is planning to take the AP Exam, I give extra instruction on the expectations of those grading AP Exams.

Probability

Probability

I taught probability as part of basic math and statistics courses in a large public high school and in North Carolina's Virtual Public School. I am patient with students who often find probability difficult and non-intuitive. I keep my explanations as simple as possible until the student gets the concept.

AP Statistics is an extremely rigorous statistics course. My experience in AP Statistics has prepared me for tutoring all levels of high school statistics and introductory college statistics.

Very effective, great communication

My son said his lesson with Wanda was excellent - she explained concepts in a clear way with good explanations, and she was very prepared ahead of time with sample problems for him to complete. We definitely hope to hire her again.

Thank you, Leigh, for your kind feedback :-).

Knowledgeable teacher

My daughter needs help with her AP statistics class. She took first tutoring class with Mrs. Henke and she said it’s great. She understood how the teacher explains studying materials better than her school teacher. Based on her feedback, we will definitely book more classes.

Thank you Kate for your kind review 😊. I'm glad I am able to help.

Knows her stuff and very patient.

First lesson with Wanda and the very next day my son gets a 100 on a stats test. She’s knowledgeable, patient and structured. I highly recommend her. I don’t want to type the full 160 character as required. So just copy and pasting what I already said

Wanda was an amazing tutor!

Wanda tutored my son in a review lesson for his AP Stats test. My son said Wanda was well organized, extremely knowledgeable on the subject matter, and explained topics in a very easy to understand manner. He said he felt confident going into his test after the tutoring session. I recommend Wanda with no hesitation.

We are very happy to have connected with Wanda, who helps him with a rather challenging AP Stats class. Wanda is always available when we need her, also on a short notice, and is making a real difference in our son's understanding of the subject.
