"Hello! My name is Heather and I have been tutoring math and SAT/ACT test prep on Wyzant for over ten years. I love math and I love explaining it to others!

I have a conversational focus to my tutoring. Solving the problem is really secondary to understanding the concept. I prefer to talk about the concept first and review different ways to solve the problem before we choose the best attack. When you feel panicky or pressured during a test, being able to go over multiple options will help you to make the best choice.

You'll see my availability is weeknights and weekends. I'm a lab scientist and I work during the day. I will always reply as quick as I can and I aim to be as flexible as possible with scheduling; so, if you have a tricky schedule or you need short-notice changes, just let me know! I'm happy to work with you :)

If you would like to inquire about science tutoring: while I feel math can be effectively taught in-person or online, in my experience, the diagrams and cycles that are so prevalent in biological science are better taught in-person and so I do not teach science online." less...
