Math

In addition to teaching full classes, I have tutored math students ages 9-14 for the past 2 years. I am certified to teach math, and I taught at the middle school level for 20 years. All tutoring sessions are completed via zoom. Each zoom session is scheduled separately.

How do you sign up for tutoring? That’s easy. Pay for your session, and email me at bcwriter16@gmail.com to schedule your time.

Following is the most recent feedback from parents.

As a parent with little understanding of math, Miss Commins seems to have the rare ability to recognize when my daughter is struggling and can help her until the concept clicks. She is a friendly and understanding person with excellent communication skills with her students. She was very patient and kind toward my daughter and has genuinely helped her. I am so grateful that we have found somebody dedicated to teaching and who knows how to explain such challenging concepts to a thirteen-year-old. As a mother, I feel that Miss Commins is extremely trustworthy, and I feel safe having her virtually in my home and around my daughter. If anybody needed help with math, I would first direct them to Miss Commins.

I have previously reviewed Ms. Commins but I felt the need to leave a new review because this instructor was such a lifesaver for my child during this past school year.  My daughter was in her last quarter of school and she needed a minimum grade of 70/C to pass in math but she was struggling with the concepts. She took one of the quizzes that would lead up to the final exam and ended up making a failing grade. She was already receiving tutoring from her math teacher at school twice a week and it STILL WASN'T STICKING. I reached out to Ms. Commins and let her know this situation and that ny daughter could possibly not pass for the school year if she couldn't make at least a C on her upcoming exam. Ms. Commins worked with her for almost an hour that day, reteaching the concepts. The next day my daughter tested on the subject and made a perfect score of 100/A!!!! She even completed the one hour exam in a little over 30 minutes!! My daughter suffers with ADHD so for her to make a perfect score is an absolute miracle!! Thank you Ms. Commins for all of your amazing support and assistance! I can't recommend this instructor more than this! She is amazing!!!

Ms Commins is very professional and knowledgeable but above all very patient. She is a great motivator for our daughter to build her academic skills and confidence.

This instructor is one of the best ones for my daughter. My daughter has used different math tutors, but she always asks me to see if Ms. Commins is available before she tries using a different tutor. My daughter has ADHD so she struggles a bit more than other kids to grasp certain math concepts. But in a 25 minute session Ms. Commins will often break the concept down and be able to help her grasp the concept way faster than I ever could do on my own. I completely recommend this instructor!!

I am very grateful to Ms. Cummins. I felt very stuck on trying to help my son with some 4th grade math. Ms. Cummins has a gentle, kind, patient demeanor and spent time with my son going through each question. I seriously felt a weight lift getting through that section and am very glad I picked her session!

Ms. Commins was able to squeeze us in on short notice.  She helped my daughter with a difficult new math concept by going over the steps patiently and slowly. Further, she gave us a few extra minutes at the end of our session!

Ms Commins accepted our request on short notice. She is extremely knowledgeable and was able to keep my son engaged and motivated. She has complete mastery of math and algebra. She is cheerful and able to break down complicated equations in a simple format that my son understood.

My daughter has specifically requested that I sign her up for private tutoring with Ms. Commins on several occasions when she didn't quite understand her math homework. She is very patient with her and takes the time to work through the problems until she gets a full understanding of the homework. It's amazing how much they are able to accomplish in only 25 minutes! And Ms. Commins doesn't waste any time once the 25 minute tutoring session begins. She spends the entire time working with my daughter. I would definitely recommend her tutoring sessions to anyone who is having trouble with math.

Wonderful experience-I would definitely sign up for this class again!! I can’t not thank you enough for providing this type of support to students and their parents!!

She explains concepts in a simple and clear fashion. She is very supportive and positive with kids. In our case, she utilized a bunch of approaches and tools/games to help kids practice... Show More...
