Getting A Much Needed Math Tutor

In college, I struggled with math. Math is a building subject in that you learn something and then the next section typically takes the basic skills of math and puts them to test further. Trigonometry uses formulas like Pythagoras' theory to find the missing side of a triangle. It uses basic algebra to solve for the missing side. If you are particularly skilled in algebra, solving for the missing side of a triangle can be difficult. This was my problem in college. I was required to take several upper level calculus classes. So I did what most people would do-I first took the introduction to calculus class. I did pass the class but just barely. This was only a problem when I moved onto the upper level classes and had no clue what I was doing. You can see why getting a math tutor sooner than later is so important. If you wait too long there is too much catching up to do and one can feel completely lost.
The best solution to my problem was getting a local math tutor to help me. My particular learning style was different from most in that I needed to just understand the concepts to be able to do the math problems. My math tutor luckily picked up on this and was able to teach me the basics conceptually and once I understood that, it was like a light bulb going off in my head. I could move on to the more advanced sections that relied on the basic understanding that my math tutor had helped me understand.
I can't stress enough how much my math tutor helped me understand the basic concepts of math and calculus before be moved onto advanced math. Without the help of my tutor, I might still be in college struggling with back math concepts. Thank you math tutor.
