Your first hour with any tutor is always 100% refundable!

I have taught students from kindergarten through eighth grade for 20 years in Boulder Valley School District, spending the majority of that time teaching middle school math and science. I have also tutored high school students and adults in Honors Geometry, Advanced Algebra 2, and Precalculus.

I love working with kids of any school age as well as adults, helping them understand math and helping them find joy in it! I am very patient and work from where the student is, solidifying existing understanding, clarifying misconceptions, and building from there.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Civil Engineering with a minor in mathematics and a Master's degree in Education. Whether tutoring or in the classroom, teaching is my passion and great joy.

Please consider working with me. I can help!
