I love connecting with students and helping them find their confidence in math and science. I pride myself on being able to explain these concepts well, and create an enjoyable learning experience for students. My favorite part of teaching is when a concept finally clicks for a student and they feel pride! I believe that students learn best when they know their teacher is invested in them. Therefore, I prioritize making connections with my students and tailoring the experience for each of them.

I have experience with students with anxiety, depression, ADHD, as well as other mood disorders. I have spent the past months of the pandemic assisting students via zoom, and I feel very comfortable in my ability to connect with students and teach effectively virtually.

I have a Bachelor's degree in Biology and Environmental Science, and a minor in Chemistry. I also hold a M.Ed. and M.A.T. I know many students may need individualized attention and I would love to support them during this time. Please reach out with any questions or to book a session!

Taryn is an excellent tutor

Taryn helped my daughter to understand Algebra 2 problems with simple, straightforward explanations, which is kind of a miracle. My daughter enjoys joking around with Taryn and bonding with her over their pets. Update: Taryn has literally saved us. My daughter went from failing Algebra 2 in a virtual course that had no instructor, to getting an A in her last semester. My daughter's chances of getting into college looked very dim, but with Taryn's help, she has now already been accepted by 2 universities. Most importantly, my daughter just loves Taryn. She never complains about doing Math with her, which is amazing considering that she has always complained in the past. She will go to tutoring tired and leave tutoring smiling. Taryn is an exceptional person, so supportive and down to earth. I feel so lucky that we met Taryn.

Patient and helpful tutor

Taryn was very patient and provided clear explanations that helped my stepson understand several chemistry concepts that had been confusing him. We have already scheduled our next session.

Very knowledgeable!

Taryn did a great job with my daughter helping her to understand her pre-calculus content and getting her prepared for a test. My daughter ended up getting an A on a test that she was sure she was going to fail. Thank you, Taryn. You did a great job!

Very helpful and enjoyable tutoring! 10th grade chemistry test help

My daughter doesn't love working with tutors, but finally requested help for a chemistry test. She said that she very much enjoyed working with Taryn and got a much better grade than she expected. Thank you!

Delivers on expectation

Going into tutoring sessions with Taryn we expected some math improvements while having an overall enriching learning experience. Taryn delivered on both. Our son looked forward to each weekly session and talked about Taryn and what he learned in between sessions. His in-school math scores improved, he was ahead of the pack in the advanced math class and he scored a 99% in math on the high school entrance exam. Thank you, Taryn!

Huge impact

Taryn was a huge help in a short time period. She assisted my daughter in catching up with an algebra class that was a little bit ahead of her and boosted her confidence tenfold!
