The closing of Ohio schools has forced us all to adapt to a new environment in which in-person learning is temporarily unavailable. Your teachers and school staff will do their best to provide instruction online, and many of you will want to continue receiving help as you navigate this new system. I will continue to offer my tutoring services during the school closures, but with a few changes.

First, with restaurants and libraries closed, and health officials asking us all to limit our contact with one another, I will not be meeting in-person with students until the bans have been lifted. I will instead be offering my tutoring services through Skype. Skype is free to download and use (https://www.skype.com/en/get-skype), and allows easy communication both verbally and visually. Students can see my work on a whiteboard as well as through screen sharing. I am also lowering my minimum session length to 30 minutes, and scheduling is first come, first served.

To help with the adjustment, I am also offering FREE homework checks (up to 10 minutes per student per day) to any current or new student through April 5. Simply send me a picture or screenshot of your assignment and answers, and I will let you know which (if any) problems you missed and provide corrections where appropriate. If this proves popular, I will update families with some affordable options to keep the homework checks going past April 5.

This is a difficult time for us all, but we will get through it. I hope you and your loved ones are safe and healthy, and I look forward to the days when we can meet again in-person!
