Experienced High School Tutor: Algebra and Database

Fakiha E.

I'm Fakiha! I graduated with a Bachelor's degree in Computer Science . In college, I realized the classes I appreciated most weren't necessarily the topics !| was most interested in. Rather, it was the professors who made the classes enjoyable. These professors were always engaging and comprehensible when teaching the material in the classroom, and willing to go the extra mile when I asked for additional help or clarification. I try to bring this knowledge to my tutoring approach, and do everything I can to make learning a pleasant experience. I use lesson plans in which I usually introduce the topic in a fun and creative way, then explicitly teach the material. Afterwards I always ensure time for students to practice the material on their own. Of course, this method can be adjusted based on the subject and
student's individual needs. I have a year tutoring experience in a ninth grade Algebra 1 classroom. I worked directly with any students who needed additional assistance, but also had a small focus group of 5-10 students in each of my 6 classes. These were the students who needed the most extra help. so I worked with them during class to make sure they didn't fall behind. Additionally, I held tutoring sessions everyday after school where students could come for any homework help. In this setting I tutored
not only in Algebra, but also Geometry, Biology, and English. I want to benefit the students I work with as much as possible, therefore welcome any resources or suggestions students or parents can provide. I am easy to reach and will always provide fast
responses. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson!
