Rebecca V.

Tutor

I understand that not everybody is comfortable with the subject so I make every effort to speak to my students in a manner they can understand and learn the necessary terminology over time with patience and compassion. I carry modeling clay, paper, scissors, markers, transparencies... anything to help students see and understand the concepts. I always try to remember the struggles and emotions I encountered during my math education so that I can empathize with my students and respect their fears and individual needs. I also believe that the only way to understand math is to put in the time and make mistakes, so I will never give up on or lose patience with a student that shows good work ethic and continues to try.

    Very good tutor. We have met with her five times now, and she is always on time and ready for any question. My daughters grades in precalculus increased dramatically after the first two lessons. I highly recommended Rebecca

    She is very knowledgeable and is always able to answer by daughter's questions quickly, which makes my daughter feel more confident. I've had trouble with other tutors that don't show up or are always late. Rebecca is always on time and will always try to fit us in if we need more help.

    Rebecca was wonderful with my daughter. She was always on time and professional. She is always prepared for any subject and questions my daughter had in her pre calculus class. She was able to explain things in a way that was easy to understand.

    Claire has had a great improvement in her algebra course as a freshman with Ms. Vecera. She is punctual, understanding, calm and to the point with her skills. It took Claire a good 4 lessons to know that we were with the right person. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a true up to date math tutor.
