As a fully credentialed secondary mathematics teacher with over 25 years of classroom experience, I specialize in transforming complex math concepts into clear, manageable steps for middle and high school students. I hold a Master's degree in education along with an active California teaching credential, having spent decades teaching everything from foundational Algebra and Geometry to advanced AP Calculus.
My instructional approach focuses on building deep conceptual understanding rather than just memorizing steps; I adapt my methods to match each student's unique learning style, using clear analogies, visual tools, and patient, structured guidance. If you experience high anxiety around math, please know that I have spent my entire career helping students navigate those exact feelings, breaking down the intimidation factor so you can find your footing.
Whether working one-on-one to rebuild a student's confidence, prepping for rigorous AP exams, or helping college-bound students bridge summer learning gaps, I create a supportive, low-stress environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and uncovering the "why" behind the math.
