About Ruth
Hello! My name is Ruth, and I am a junior at Cornell University majoring in Fashion Design Management. Alongside my passion for fashion, I excel in math and love making it an enjoyable subject for young learners.
I believe in a tailored approach to tutoring. I start by assessing each student's current knowledge, struggles, and goals, then build a customized plan to strengthen their foundation. My teaching style is interactive and engaging, encouraging students to ask questions and participate actively.
Growing up with three siblings, babysitting, and volunteering at summer schools has honed my ability to connect with kids. I am patient, organized, and clear with instructions, creating a comfortable learning environment for all!
I specialize in tutoring elementary and middle school students, helping them with basic arithmetic, fractions, pre-algebra, and other foundational math topics. My goal is to boost their confidence and academic success.
Let's make math fun and exciting together!

My teaching approach is grounded in a thorough understanding of each student's current abilities and areas for improvement. Here's a deeper look into my tutoring philosophy and methods:
Teaching Method and Techniques
My teaching method begins with an initial assessment to gauge the student's knowledge, identify struggles, and understand their goals. This diagnostic approach allows me to tailor lessons that build on their existing foundations, ensuring steady and robust growth in their mathematical understanding. I am adaptable and incorporate personalized study methods to align with what works best for each student. Encouraging a lot of questions is a cornerstone of my tutoring sessions. I believe that fostering curiosity and a questioning mindset is crucial for deep learning. My demeanor is patient, calm, and playful, making learning math a fun and engaging experience.

Warm-Up: Begin with a quick review of previous lessons to reinforce retention.

What Sets Me Apart as a Tutor
Growing up with three siblings and extensive experience babysitting and volunteering at summer schools has equipped me with the skills to manage and engage young learners effectively. My playful yet structured approach creates a learning environment where students feel comfortable and motivated. Additionally, my academic background at Cornell University ensures that I bring a high level of knowledge and competence to each tutoring session.
