FOR A LIMITED TIME ONLY!
It is the Spring cleaning sale at the YAL Tutoring Emporium! Everything must go! Go where? We don't care. 😉
That's right! If you act now, you can get log(10) hours of tutoring for the price of 2. Imagine the savings!
😱
Act now! And for the love of everything sacred, don't bring out your calculator. Just trust us.

Seen in a tutoring job ad:
"Please let me know if you are local."
Yeah, with the only geographical information being that you are in the same time zone as New York, it is going to be super easy to know whether I'm local to you or not.
The New York time zone is a large slice of the Earth, ya know...
A resource I've sometimes found useful during times of need:
Experienced engineers (& others) can register as tutors & charge by the hour for Zoom sessions. Sometimes you can arrange a recurring series with a student or freelance gigs.
One Python/JS engineer I knew was able to make her entire living off of it. At least it can help make ends meet.

I don't even remember how to make or use slope fields... 😩
It probably would come back fast.
That's one of my problems with some of the math that I'm supposed to know (because I'm a tutor).
I use derivation and integration often enough that they are committed to memory.
However, there are things that I've learned that I never get to use, like slope fields.
I just saw an ad for tutoring Algebra 1. In it the parent was talking about how the tutoring should aim to get their daughter into virology, get ER experience and go to a prestigious medical school.
Algebra 1.
I get it. I've helped nurses and guys in the trades pass math requirements that they needed for professional goals.
Fine.
But all this talk of what their daughter would do, if only she got the right Algebra 1 tutoring is a huge red flag.
Toxic parents.
I'll note that there was zero talk about what the girl actually wanted to do with her life. It wasn't "she's passionate about virology." It really felt like parental projection.

Hey fedi, to people who are okay with pirating school textbooks, can you help me find this outrageously priced essential book for IB teachers?

It has to be grade 4-5 as I tutor a 5th grade student soon and need to learn how IB board assesses its students, thank you!

"Use the alternative form of the derivative..."
LOL wut??? The derivative has an "alternative form???"
A calculus student presented a question to me that started like this. I never heard of any alternative form, so I searched for it.
I landed on this page:
The first comment under the question is: "What do you understand by "the alternative form of the derivative"? This is not standard terminology."
Yeah, I agree. This is not standard terminology.
Ultimately, I agree with the person who answered the question at the Stackexchange site, but why not just say: "use this definition of the derivative to find..." and give the formula????
Use the alternative form of the derivative to find the derivative at $x=c$ if $f(x)=x^3+4x$ and $c=2$. I keep getting stuck with the answer being $0$, no matter how I try to solve it. If someone ...
