Tutor available
Hello! My name is Natalie McDaniel, and I’m an academic tutor and homeschool support specialist looking to take on some new students. Back in high school, I was that math nerd that people asked for help when they were having trouble in class. I graduated high school with an ACT 35 and superscored SAT 1560. Additionally, two days ago I graduated from college with my Literature degree and the credit equivalent of a math/science minor. In college, I worked with a nationally recognized math tutoring business for two and a half years, and I have been tutoring math and test prep for the ACT, AP, and ASVAB tests independently for more than five years now. I typically do one-on-one tutoring, but I have taught up to four students at a time. I teach both online and in person.
I spend the most time tutoring math from counting to calculus, but I can also help with ACT and SAT English and Reading sections, literature/English/reading/composition, Spanish I and II, history, science, and biblical Greek. I was homeschooled K-12, and I get that sometimes a particular student or subject just needs a little extra explanation, organization, or accountability. I am thorough and organized, and I would be happy to be the driving force your homeschool academy needs to get through a tricky subject or busy year. I’m patient and encouraging, but my real strength is understandable explanations, which is why math is my specialty. My goal with struggling math students is to find where the student got off track and not move on till they understand those root issues. I have worked with student after student who is not “bad at math,” just overwhelmed and unsure about foundational concepts. Clear up how algebra language works (or what fractions really represent, etc.) and suddenly what the teacher says makes sense again.
