With over a decade of experience teaching mathematics to middle and high school students, I bring a deep passion for helping learners unlock their potential in math. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from the University of Derby, where I studied advanced topics like Linear Algebra, Cryptography, and Differential Equations, and a Professional Graduate Certificate in Education with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS) from the University of the West of England. These qualifications have equipped me with both the theoretical knowledge and practical teaching skills to make complex concepts accessible to students of all levels.
My teaching experience spans diverse settings, from classrooms to one-on-one tutoring. At the Russian School of Mathematics, I’ve designed engaging lessons for grades 6–12, focusing on problem-solving strategies and real-world applications. As a private tutor, I’ve tailored my approach to meet the needs of students preparing for standardized tests like the SAT and ACT, as well as coursework aligned with Common Core and advanced placement (AP) classes, achieving a 90% success rate in grade improvement. I specialize in identifying knowledge gaps and adapting my methods to each student’s learning style, whether through hands-on activities, step-by-step problem-solving, or technology-integrated tools like MATLAB. My goal is not just to improve grades but to foster a genuine understanding and love for mathematics.
What sets me apart is my ability to connect abstract math concepts to tangible examples, making lessons both relatable and memorable. Whether working with a middle schooler struggling with Pre-Algebra or a high school student tackling AP Calculus, I prioritize patience, clarity, and encouragement. My track record of helping students achieve top grades—including a 70% A-A* rate in advanced math courses—speaks to my commitment to their success. I’m excited to bring this same dedication to Wyzant, helping students build confidence and excel in math.
