First of all , I firmly believe that 95 % of the students have enough abilities
to pass High School Math courses.
Students fail in high school because of the lack of prerequisite
knowledge and help.
For some of the students 1 hour per week is enough
to close the gaps in knowledge and get easily 65-75
% even though they failed Math before.
If you come to my classes I will test your knowledge
and tell you how many classes you need in order
to pass or improve. Moreover, after a few classes I can tell you what
term mark you will get if you keep working hard.
As a Mathematician I know that
the key role of success in Math plays a deep
understanding of the logical structure of the math
course. I learned this idea from my wonderful teacher.
And his teaching method brought excellent results
not only in Math, but also in further professions
of all his students.
I always
work on developing the understanding of the course, and not memorizing
the rules and repeating the steps. Memorizing
without understanding does not work in High School because
all the problems are different and require different approach.
In Math it is essential to develop logical, analytical thinking, especially
for kids whose majors will be in computer science, engineering or finances. I always
encourage my students to think for themselves.
I teach how to apply concepts and ideas to a problem.
Students
who need help in Math usually have gaps from previous years,
and first of all bridging the gaps of knowledge is very important
in creating a stable base for further progress, because in Math
everything links to each other.
During my lessons I am not only helping with current assignments but
also striving to eliminate the deficiency of my student's knowledge.
Usually for this purpose I give additional homework - a couple of exercises
to consolidate what a student have learned during the lesson.
I
HAVE ADDITIONAL MATERIALS ON EVERY TOPIC WITH DIFFERENT LEVELS OF DIFFICULTIES.
Also,
there is another group of students who have strong and comprehensive
knowledge but still have problems in Math because of their lack
of confidence or difficulties in creative applying knowledge
to the current problem. For these students, I always try to encourage
them to think for themselves by giving as small hint as possible
and offering different Math problems .
I am running these Math classes because I ENJOY helping people
and seeing their happy faces
when they
get 80-90 % in school.
I
like to see that a student who thought initially that Math is hard and he/
she can not overcome it suddenly realizes that he/she can pass and , moreover,
get 80-90 %. It gives the hope that they can choose any profession
and attend any University or College.
In
addition I can say that my friendly and easygoing nature creates a light
atmosphere during the lessons, which makes it easy for students to overcome
their difficulties.
Come
and see for yourself!
