Tutor Information
About
I'm Jadon currently an undergraduate student at the University of Texas at Austin and strive to become a math professor. I was at the top of my class in high school, taking Calculus III as a senior, finishing with honors, and a 104 GPA. I have had prior tutoring experience in math, history and Spanish while working at Kumon for two years. In this environment, I interacted with 2-5 students in a classroom, assisting them when needed and creating a stress-free environment they could enjoy. I also started my own tutoring organization known as No Pay to Learn and Play for three years. I created this organization to help those in isolation do well in school. I strove to create a personal connection with them and would often play chess with them after our lesson to learn more about their personality. This was to better tailor my teachings to their personality and needs.
I have come to understand how important the relationship between the student and teacher is when it comes to the learning experience. This relationship could change how a student views a subject forever and improve how they learn the subject altogether. I am a firm believer that every student has different forms of learning and deserves my undivided attention to understand what they need. In order to incorporate this ideology, I would ask the students what their ambition is and connect what they are learning to that ambition. In this way, the student will become more motivated to learn the material. I would ask how they learn best: visually, through listening or maybe something else. Lastly, I would be patient and engaging with the student in that I would continue to explain the concept until they understand, and I would create more creative methods of learning such as mnemonic devices.
I am very flexible with my schedule and quick to respond. My goal is to improve students' learning experience and enjoy learning. I wish to help students get ahead or get back on track.
