Emily - Know your tutor
Do you or your child need extra support in math? I offer patient, personalized tutoring to help students build confidence and excel. I have been passionate about math since childhood, teaching peers as early as elementary school and earning first place in a math competition at a Chinese after-school center. My education covers all levels up through Calculus, and I am currently pursuing College Algebra and Calculus I at the University of the People. In addition to my math expertise, I hold a TESOL certification and an RBT certificate, equipping me to effectively teach ESL learners as well as students with neurodivergent learning challenges. My approach is flexible, encouraging, and tailored to each learner’s unique needs. Whether you’re struggling with the basics or tackling advanced topics, I can help you understand concepts clearly, improve your problem-solving skills, and achieve better results in school. Contact me today to schedule a session and take the next step toward math success! Sincerely Yours, Miss Emily Li

Class overview
My Methodology: I combine clear, step-by-step explanations with structured practice using trusted resources: • OpenStax Math textbooks for clear, college-level explanations and exercises. • Brainchild’s Learning Method to reinforce core skills through repetition and targeted practice. • Curriculum books for Grades 1–5 to strengthen foundational math and ensure no learning gaps. My sessions focus on conceptual understanding first, then practice and application. Students learn how to break down problems, recognize patterns, and approach challenges with confidence. I encourage independent thinking while offering plenty of support, so learners gradually become more self-reliant in solving math problems. Additionally, I hold a TESOL certification and an RBT certificate, equipping me to effectively work with ESL students and those with neurodivergent learning needs. Every lesson is tailored to the student’s pace, background, and goals. Whether starting with the basics or preparing for advanced topics, I provide the right mix of structure, encouragement, and proven curriculum resources to help students succeed.

Mathematics concepts taught by Emily
The Tutor and Student worked on developing piano skills, focusing on rhythm, musical intervals (melodic and harmonic), dynamics, and ear training. They practiced several musical pieces and reviewed theoretical concepts, with assignments to reinforce note reading and interval identification.

Understanding Musical Range
Dynamics: Piano (p) and Mezzo Forte (mf)
The Tutor and Student worked on fundamental music theory, specifically focusing on drawing and identifying bass and treble clefs, constructing the grand staff, and placing notes (middle C, space notes, and line notes) on the musical staff. They then practiced playing these notes on the piano keyboard and introduced the concept of flats, followed by learning a song from "Howl's Moving Castle."

Note Duration and Values
The Staff and Clefs
The student and tutor focused on the fundamentals of piano music theory, specifically note reading. They covered identifying notes on the treble and bass clefs using mnemonics and locating middle C as a reference point on the keyboard. The tutor also provided resources for further study and discussed the importance of music theory for improvisation.

The Musical Staff and Clefs
The Tutor and Student reviewed specific bars of a song to improve consistency and tempo. They discussed practicing with a metronome and set goals for memorization and speeding up the piece. The Student was assigned homework to send pictures of two songs, and the Tutor provided an overview of a new piece, "Minuette in E flat major."
