You can have a free tech check session if you’re interested in online math tutoring or SAT math help. During your free tech check session, you can check your technology to make sure it works before committing to a paid session. You can also determine whether you feel it’s a good fit for both of us before continuing.
Communicate via FaceTime or Google Meet
We can use FaceTime or Google Meet for communication. If you don’t have access to that, we can use the phone. FaceTime or Google Meet are better as sighs, facial gestures, shrugs, etc., can communicate so much. If you’re frustrated, we need to take a moment to catch our breath.
If we do use FaceTime, I’ll contact you the first time. Since I’m using a MacBook to FaceTime, my contact information is not a phone number. However, after your onboarding session, save me in your contacts. That way, you can initiate FaceTime in your subsequent sessions.
Writing Tools
As for writing your work, you can use Ziteboard. I’ll send you a link immediately before your free onboarding session. That way, you can learn how to use your online interactive whiteboard during your onboarding session. In real time, we’ll be collaborating on your math problems.

For Ziteboard to work well for you, you’ll want a touchscreen of some type. A touchscreen laptop works fine, as does an iPad or other tablet. Your best option, though, is a Wacom Tablet so that you have a dedicated writing tool. The wired Wacom is better than the wireless as there is no lag. But, if you have a gaming rig or comparable desktop, the wireless Wacom is fine. Just be sure you have the processing speed so there is no lag.
The beauty of Ziteboard is that you can refer to your notes on any device at any time. So, right before your test, you can scroll through your phone to see how you solved that one math problem. Or, see the diagram and equation so you know how to set up the one FRQ on your test.
