I believe every student can succeed with the right support, and my lessons are tailored to your pace, learning style, and goals. For math, I use step-by-step guidance, relatable examples, and problem-solving strategies that make concepts stick. For ESL, I focus on practical communication skills—listening, speaking, reading, and writing—while also covering grammar and vocabulary in context. My sessions are interactive, encouraging, and grounded in real-life situations so you can immediately apply what you learn. My goal isn’t just to help you pass a test—it’s to give you the skills and confidence to succeed far beyond the classroom.
As an example on Functions:
Lesson structure
1) Warm up & activation — 10 minutes
Quick diagnostic: 4 rapid items (2 ordered pairs, 1 table, 1 graph). Student writes answers (function? domain? range?). This shows gaps and builds early success by including at least one very easy question.
2) Mini-lesson: Concept & Notation — 15 minutes
Explain: “A function is a rule that gives exactly one output for each input.” Use the machine metaphor (input → rule → output)
Demonstrate with three short examples: ordered pair set, table (in/out), and a simple equation.
I'll use a simple, real-world example: “f(hours studied) = predicted quiz score,” showing mapping of a few inputs to outputs. This helps the student connect math to life.
Then we will do a Formative Check: I will ask the student to explain the definition in their own words; rephrase as needed.
3) Guided practice (scaffolded) — 20 minutes
- Work 4 problems together (progressing difficulty):
- Identify function from ordered pairs.
- Fill missing outputs in a function table (one-operation rules).
4) Independent practice (the student practices with coaching) — 15 minutes
Student does 4–6 short problems on their own while you observe (or work in pairs if remote).
Formative check: Tally correct answers and note recurring errors to target in the next lesson.
5) Real-world application & extension — 10 minutes
6) Exit questions & homework — 5–10 minutes
Exit ticket (3 quick Qs):
Identify a function. (small set of ordered pairs)
Give domain/range of a small discrete graph/table.
Homework (5 problems + 1 short written prompt): one page of practice problems (mixed types) + a brief written explanation: “In your own words, what is a function and why does the vertical-line test work?” — encourages metacognition and writing skill
