math and science tutoring Ā š©āš«
my teaching philosophy (concept, concept, concept!)
I truly believe that any student can understand math, provided that it is explained in a way that makes sense to them. I aim to help students understand the concept, rather than memorize rules and formulas. I love to spark curiosity through real-life questions/applications and use creative projects to help reinforce concepts for students.

cancellations
Unfortunately, when students cancel a session, it can be difficult for me to schedule another student during that time to make up for the income I would lose. To encourage students to refrain from cancelling, I use the following cancellation policy.
First cancellation = no charge. Things happen and I understand that sometimes sessions need to be cancelled. The first time a student cancels a session, I waive any fees for that session. Subsequent cancellations will result in charges.
Cancellation within 24 hours of a session = full rate for the session
Cancellation with more than 24 hours notice = half rate for the session
Rescheduling = no charge if we reschedule to a new time within the week (Sunday through Saturday of the current week). If we can't find a time to reschedule, then I will assess a charge according to when the request to reschedule was received.
