Alissa A.

Private tutor in Farmington, MI

Education

I have a B. A. in Secondary Education from the University of Michigan (with teaching certifications in English, mathematics, and psychology) and a M. A. in Educational Technology from Michigan State University.

Experience

I have over seven years of teaching experience at the high school level. I have taught Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, and American Literature for a wide range of learners with varying ability levels. I have spent hundreds of hours over the years individually tutoring my students as well as running a math tutoring program at my place of employment. I truly enjoy helping students learn and gain confidence in math. I believe in teaching students multiple approaches to problems and giving them the freedom to use methods that support his or her self-efficacy. I am very patient and kind and adjust my teaching to the pace an individual student needs.

Hobbies

In my free time I enjoy trying out new hobbies in the fitness realm such as cardio kickboxing, zumba, pilates, cycling, and "Insanity" workouts. I also downhill ski to make use of the Michigan winters. Additionally, I miss being on the ice and dance floor, as I was a figure skater and dancer for 13 years; I try to find ways to do these hobbies with friends. I also enjoy relaxing- I am a movie buff and love watching movies and making use of Netflix!
