Math tutoring?

d&jb52407

I've never had to look for a tutor before but dd1 is struggling with Algebra II.  We all struggle with math in my family and I have no skills to assist her.  We are working with the school but also wanted to see if any of you have suggestions for how to go about finding one, are tutors, or have friends who are.

When I went to Mines, I was a tutor.  I did both the college kids and had a couple of HS kids too (those were private tutoring).  It might be worth a call to Mines and see if they can give you a name/number of someone. 

The HS kids I tutored were willing to drive to campus, but you may be able to find one with a car willing to drive closer to you (most college kids will do anything for gas money!)

My kids' babysitter who has become my friend is a math tutor in Parker.  I really love her.  Obviously my kids are little so we use her as a nanny if we go out of town but she is a math genius and teaches to high school students.  She's amazing.  She tutors out of her home close to downtown Parker.  Let me know if you want her contact info if that location would work for you.  I think she really clicks with high school students.  She's 28 years old, very cool, and also very knowledgeable.

Some of the teachers at my school tutor students, and it works really well because the teacher knows the student and what they need help with.  It depends on the school if they support that or not, but it is worth checking into.
