Is your student spending too much time?
Should be 2.5 hours/week total. If your student is spending significantly more
time than that, have him/her come and talk with me.
This semester = more math (algebra, trig light)
Next semester = more conceptual

Times Available
Tutorials are a great time for your student to come and ask questions.
As the year progresses, I may institute a “mandatory” tutorial visit for students with low test scores. If they don’t appear, you may see an email from me.
Test debrief during class and tutorial.

I have no special talents. I am only
passionately curious.
