Individualized teaching.

Why have a math tutor when we have math teachers in school?

Schoolteachers are forced to provide a general teaching level that fits most kids in the class.

Kids with special challenges need more individual attention and help from a math tutor that understands their personal situation.

Kids with exceptional abilities need the individual stimulation and extra stretch provided by a private math tutor.

Encouragement.

Why have a math tutor when there are plenty of math books to read for free at the library?
    ... or there are lots of good math books available in the nearest bookstore?
    ... or with a computer and internet access, there are lots of web sites and software that teach math to anyone?

Well, who uses these resources? There are people who could buy a math book and learn its contents by reading it. But most people, even if they could, are not doing it!

The math tutor encourages people to learn new things, helps them get started, and helps them keep going. A math tutor can also save valuable time by providing hints and guidance in the right direction.

Clear sailing ...

Why have a math tutor if I have problems with English or Science?

Math is not just adding numbers together and other computations of this sort.

Math provides training in general logical thinking, and few subjects can be done well without thinking well.

Math includes:

• thinking about how to solve a problem
• planning the solution technique
• coming through with the correct solution
• presenting the solution for others

Clear sailing in math therefore smoothes the path in other subjects as well.

... expanded horizon ...

Why have a math tutor if I do not need one?

This is like asking: why see a movie, is it necessary?

Or, like the boy who at first did not want to go to summer camp because he could play at home. Camp was hilarious and he got lots of new fun friends that bettered his life for years.

A math tutor can show you new perspectives, and show you new ways of doing things that will make a difference in all areas of your life.

A math tutor can also introduce you to a wonderful world of fascinating concepts to explore and play with to your hearts content.
