    Project: Algebros

    By: Nico Summers


    Introduction

    I worked with Kaitlin Loughran


    to tutor students in Ms. Provance’s
    Algebra I classes.
    Mentors

    Ms. Provance was very happy to work


    with me. While she was gone first
    quarter, I worked with Ms.
    Macaleigh.
    Vision and Proposal

    I was initially unsure what I wanted my project to be. I wanted


    it to include tutoring and math, but it was difficult to figure out how
    to incorporate that. Eventually Kaitlin and I decided we’d work with
    Ms. Provance and her classes. I’ve tutored before, but I wanted to
    learn more about how to work with students.
    Driving Question

    Algebra I is a difficult subject, and it’s for important for all


    other high school math courses. With Covid and Ms. Provance being
    gone, it was important that the students understood math concepts.
    This led me to my driving question: how can I best prepare students
    for high school math? I was able to answer this question by tutoring.
    The best way for me personally to help out the students was to
    spend time in the classroom working with them.
    Beginning
    I met with Mr. Adam and Ms. Marsh to
    try to figure out what to do for my project.
    After speaking, Kaitlin and I created a
    project proposal for Ms. Provance. She was
    very excited, and we began to work with Ms.
    Macaleigh and Ms. Alexander to get the
    wheel turning.
    Middle
    I went into Ms. Provance‘s
    classroom during 4th and 5th
    period to tutor students. I spent
    a total of an hour-and-a-half
    every Thursday in the classroom.
    When students began to warm up
    to me, I was able help them work
    on homework as well as study for
    tests. I also helped Ms. Provance
    with creating tests and seating
    charts.
    End

    To finalize my project, I worked with


    Ms. Provance on data analysis, and
    calculated the total number of hours
    spent in the classroom, the total
    amount of time I spent with students
    one on one, and the number of unique
    students I tutored. I continued to
    tutor as well.
    Final product
    Reflection
    I really enjoyed this project, and it made me more
    confident in my teaching skills. Getting the students to
    be willing to work with me was difficult, and one specific
    student almost flat out refused to work with me. A
    couple weeks ago he was able to do a multi step problem
    with little to no trouble. I am very proud of him and
    some of my other students, and I am very happy that my
    data analysis shows I was able to make a difference.
    Takeaways For the Future

    This project has helped me build my tutoring skills, and I now feel
    very confident in them. Next year I will likely use it in my senior
    project and may use it for a future job.
    Acknowledgments
    Ms. Provance was a great help for this project, and I’m very
    thankful that she let us use her classroom as well as work on the
    data analysis with me. Kaitlin was also a great partner, and I enjoyed
    being able to discuss challenges and problem solve with her.
