About Huey Ming

Bio

I hold a single subject teaching credential in math. I have taught and tutored students from elementary to high school math subjects. I aim to know my students, set practical goals, engage the students during instruction, have students practice in problem solving, and gauge student learning with assessments. Most students can achieve the goal they set if they truly put their minds to it. I will try to help you arrive at those goals if you will work with me regularly, spend time doing...

I hold a single subject teaching credential in math. I have taught and tutored students from elementary to high school math subjects. I aim to know my students, set practical goals, engage the students during instruction, have students practice in problem solving, and gauge student learning with assessments. Most students can achieve the goal they set if they truly put their minds to it. I will try to help you arrive at those goals if you will work with me regularly, spend time doing practice work and be focused on the goals you set for yourself.

I worked as a database application support specialist for years and before that a computer application programmer. My enthusiasm for math came from my teachers in secondary schools and college despite the fact that I studied computer science as my major in college. I achieved my goals for college and the goal of becoming a credentialed teacher in math. What are your academic goals? I will try to help you achieve those goals by improving your leaning in math.

Setting some practical language learning goals and achieving them while having fun can be exciting for both children and adults.

Algebra 1

I have taught and tutored high school students as well as middle school students in algebra 1. For students to learn to solve real life problems using linear equations and graphs is interesting and challenging. Comprehension of the concepts are essential to success in subsequent subjects, namely, geometry, algebra 2, and advanced higher level math.
Algebra 2,

Algebra 2

I assisted and guest taught Algebra 2 for the entire year at a south bay high school. Besides topics such as Matrices and Logarithm, graphing of polynomials and functions, solving for real and complex zeroes call for a tremendous amount of analysis. I can help the student master these skills with careful examination of the clues and signs.
Geometry,

Geometry

I have taught Geometry to students with different learning styles and needs. I would like to identify the student's learning style and use different learning strategies to generate a dialogue. Re-working the school lesson and finding the point of confusion allow the student to understand the concepts correctly and solve problems with simple guidance.

Learning Prealgebra is like the learning of the roles, functions, and rules of the game pieces of the game of Algebra. I would teach Prealgebra to make it fun and rewarding. The skills learned well in Prealgebra makes playing the Algebra game easier and a lot more interesting.

Dedicated and extremely effective Algebra II Honors Tutor for High School Freshman at Top Private School!

Huey-Ming is an outstanding Algebra tutor. I first started using Huey-Ming to tutor my youngest son in Algebra when he was an eighth grader at Stratford Middle School in Sunnyvale. His overall grade went from a high-C to a high-B in this class at a very competitive middle school. He was able to score in the 99th percentile on the High School Placement Teat (HSPT) and get into Mitty. Now, she is tutoring him in Algebra II honors at Mitty and he is getting A’s again in his tests (up from B’s and C’s). She also keeps him motivated and focused. She just spent 2.5 hours last night tutoring him online for his final exam today, and requested photos from his math book chapter tests to prepare for the lesson. This shows her dedication to her students. The Wyzant online feature is fantastic, and makes it easier for everyone to get help. Thank you to Huey-Ming. I can see using her as a math tutor for my son’s entire high school career.

Great Teacher!!!

My daughter really enjoyed the lesson. They reviewed the rules for converting from mixed numbers to improper fractions and she made it very easy for my daughter to catch on quickly. My daughter is now more confident when it comes to fractions and looking forward to more lessons in the future.

Tracee, 4 lessons with Huey Ming

Knowledgeable and patient

She helped my 8th grader understand, and was knowledgeable and patient. Looking forward to next week! I would recommend. As an English teacher, I am no help with today' math!

Valerie, 23 lessons with Huey Ming

Great tutor

Huey-Ming was very knowledgeable and patient tutor. She thought my daughter Geometry Honors. She made sure she had her materials before the meeting so that she could be prepared and the most efficient. We only had one lesson with her but my daughter said she was very good and she showed her short cuts, She scored %100 on her test next day.

Sebnem, 1 lesson with Huey Ming

Knowledgeable and patient tutor.

Huey-Ming H has taught not only the Algebra 2 of usual content but also parts of Statistics included in the course work. She has worked through the material very well and the student has succeeded in the course. We appreciate her patience and persistence in working with the student.

Noreen, 22 lessons with Huey Ming

Very helpful, encouraging and patient

This was our first experience using a tutor and Huey-Ming was great! She listened to what our middle school son was nervous about and helped him with some foundational issues that should help him continue with his progression in pre-algebra. When I asked my son about the experience, he said he really liked her, she made him feel more confident, and that she went at a really good pace for him.

Susan, 4 lessons with Huey Ming

Great algebra tutor for middle school kids!

My seventh grader looks forward to his algebra tutoring with Huey-Ming every week. He is understanding concepts with greater ease, and his algebra grade is improving. Huey-Ming is focused, attentive to detail, and easily bonded with my son. I highly recommend her.

Caitlin, 3 lessons with Huey Ming

Wonderful geometry tutor

Huey-Ming tutors my freshman daughter who is taking an honors geometry class. She is patient and knowledgeable, and my daughter gets a lot out of the sessions. Huey-Ming takes the time to understand what my daughter is working on and what will help her the most. She will also find extra resources when tackling topics that may not be covered in other geometry classes, which I really appreciate. I highly recommend her!

Michelle, 23 lessons with Huey Ming

Very thorough and patient

My kids liked Huey-Ming because she was very calm and thorough and patient. We're going to continue with her because she knows the material and has taught Algebra and seems to explain things in a manner they can understand.

Cathy, 21 lessons with Huey Ming

Knowledgeable and Patient

Huey-Ming is an excellent tutor. She is very patient and knowledgeable. My daughter took a couple of classes with her and would recommend Ming to anyone who needs help with their math.
