Are there any major differences between ATP, ITA, NTA, and ATA tutor certifications? Do clients or parents have preferences when it comes to what certification their tutor has? Seems like ITA is the cheapest and maybe the easiest to obtain for a beginning tutor on a budget.
Teachers who have spent hours creating amazing lesson plans can earn some extra money on the side, all they need to do is upload their lessons for free on [link removed].
Will soon be a retired elementary teacher. What is the best way to get into private tutoring, esp. in reading and math? Not interested in online tutoring.
I have several years of high school and college level teaching experience. While I was pursuing my master in applied mathematics, I worked as a teaching assistant at CSUF, where I taught intermediate algebra. My responsibilities included preparing course material, preparing and grading mid-term and final examinations, homework and weekly quiz assignments, and conducting tutorial and discussion sessions. Upon graduating from CSUF, I worked as an Instructor in mathematics at Claflin University. At Claflin University, I taught intermediate algebra, college algebra, pre-calculus and statistics.
In my own teaching, I try to covey the same passion and clarity to my students and to explain difficult concepts using real world examples. I am always well prepared and always chose examples that help address specific questions. My teaching has been always well received by my students.
My name is Kathy. I stumbled upon your post about receiving your master's in applied mathematics from CSUF. I recently applied there myself and was conditionally admitted. I have a few questions regarding the program at CSUF. It's been a long time since I've been in school (about 7 years). My bachelor's degree was in Computer Engineering from UCI (about 3.2 GPA), but I teach high school mathematics now. I guess you could say I know all of my math up to Calculus really well, but beyond that it's a bit hazy. My goal is to become a math teacher at a community college, but it requires at least a Master's in Applied Math. I was just wondering from your point of view if learning the content material in the Master's classes is still possible if you had been out of school a long time. It makes me a little nervous thinking about how much I probably don't remember from college. Any tips would be great...
Thank you,

Besides "word of mouth", I go to the reference sections in book stores and Libraries and talk to people looking at SAT books,etc. If they show interest I give them my business card.
I've tutored the CSTs with much success.Because of my experience with practically all popular standardized tests, I find the CSTs quite easy and am able to pass on my knowledge to my students both locally and long distance.
There are parents hiring tutors for the Star tests?!? nfmOn 5/15/11, Jack Flynn wrote: > I've tutored the CSTs with much success.Because of my > experience with practically all popular standardized tests, > I find the CSTs quite easy and am able to pass on my > knowledge to my students both locally and long distance.
If you are a school teacher/professor who would like to apply to be a tutor for this service, or if you know of any students who you think could benefit from this service, please let me know. I think that this a great concept. Not only do teachers earn a residual monthly income for all of their teacher and student referals, but the students also benefit by having unlimited, economical online tutoring by a quality instructor in the comfort and safety of their own homes.
If you would like more information about this exciting opportunity, please e-mail me at [email removed].
