About Leon

I am a recent graduate of Kean University with a Bachelor's in Math Education and with experience teaching students at Rahway 7th/8th Grade Academy. I have also taught and tutored students at Rahway High School for several years for mathematics, with a bit of music on the side.

I started as a student teacher at Rahway 7th/8th Grade Academy in Fall of 2019. Prior to that, I have had experience as a substitute teacher at Rahway High School.

I am a certified teacher in New Jersey. Prior to COVID, I was a student teacher at Rahway 7th/8th Grade Academy, where I taught students in mathematics. I also have a bachelors in Mathematics and in Secondary Education, which means I have a strong understanding of mathematics and teaching.

About the lesson

First, I would have a small test to see what my student knows. After the test, I can see where the student is struggling and where they excel. From there, I can adjust my teaching and tutoring materials to suit the student's individual needs.

During my internship, I have worked with students from Rahway. These students are bright, but they have had many struggles due to the lower socioeconomic statuses of many areas in Rahway. I have also worked with college students during my time at Kean University, as I help many of my colleagues understand and learn important math topics for their courses.

Look for someone who really wants you to succeed and will meet you at your needs.

As a substitute teacher, I had a student who told me he was struggling with summation notation. I laid out how to read summation notation in a clear, visual manner. The next week, I had security duty for the school. The student told me he aced his test thanks to my aid.

During my internship, I had a group of students who I would take aside to tutor during their lunch periods. I showed students a neat trick for multiplying large numbers; simply break the large number into two smaller numbers that multiply into it and multiply your three numbers. Example: 36 * 12. Instead of multiply 36 by 12, a student can break 12 into 3*4 and perform 36 * 3 * 4 instead. This will still yield the same product in the end, and it may be an easier method for many struggling students.

A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Ideally, students should first think about what prerequisite skills they need in a topic they are currently learning and decide whether they struggle with those skills. For example, if a student is learning how to factor polynomials, they first need to be robust in multiplying and dividing.
