With over 20 years of teaching experience, including tutoring students from Pre-K through adult, I am a certified ESL teacher, certified in Mathematics, and a former Kumon Math and Reading instructor. I’m dedicated to helping your child succeed in math, reading, and standardized testing. I meet with clients in quiet public places, usually libraries, where we can focus on learning in a calm space.

In math, I simplify tough concepts and close learning gaps to help your student master content and confidence. In writing, I guide students through every step, helping them express their ideas clearly and effectively. Whether your child needs help in math, writing, or both, I’m here to provide the personalized support they need to learn,

I typically spend 75 minutes with your child for the first session, but I only charge for an hour. This extra time is not just about the cost; it's about ensuring your child feels comfortable and understood and that we can establish a solid foundation for future sessions.

Basketball

Basketball

I currently coach a boys high school AAU team in the Pearland area-16U; and train individual male and female players 4th grade through college from various cities in the Houston metropolitan area. EXPERIENCE My success at Wichita Heights High School landed me the opportunity to attend Stephen F. Austin State University through a basketball scholarship. I graduated from Stephen F. Austin State University with a BA in Communication/Business. There, under the tutelage of the now National Championship Coach Gary Blair, the Ladyjacks and I revived the Program from the second worst team in the Nation (Sports Illustrated 1984) to our peak rank of 11 in most Nation polls (1988). From '86-'88, I led the Southland Conference in points and rebounds, with high stats in charges per game, steals, field goals and free throw percentages. I earned many Southland Conference, State and National recognitions and awards, including Regional Kodak All-American. During my junior year I played with Athletes in Action's European tour team. During the summer we toured Germany, Switzerland, Austria and Yugoslavia. After graduation, I played professionally throughout Europe, South America and the Middle East. A career ending knee injury in 1999 forced my retirement. After which I earned my Secondary Mathematics Teaching Certification from the University of Houston Clear Lake (2002) and a Masters in Mathematics from Western Governors University (2010). I am a wife, mother of two, and an 8 year cancer "Thriver!" Jeremiah 29:11.
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

I have a Master's Degree from Western Governors University in Math K-6. Also, I hold an ESL (English as a Second Language) Supplemental Certification which focuses on reading strategies for learners K-12. In addition, as a Kumon Instructor I taught reading and language to students Pre-K through adult. Furthermore, during the school year (and summer) I help our English teachers implement curriculum to help students pass STAAR English I and II. Lastly, during summer months, I have served as Curriculum Director for both math and reading, at our church for students in grades 2 through 8.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

Elementary math is when students learn the meaning of numbers and how to use the four basic operations to manipulate them: addition, multiplication, subtraction, and division. They also learn how to apply those operations to the the ten major fractions and mixed numbers. In addition, usually by grades four and five students learn the connection between fractions, decimals and percents.
Geometry

Geometry

With over 10 years of experience teaching Geometry and Pre-AP Geometry, I focus on simplifying mathematical concepts using real-life situations, both in and outside the classroom. My approach aligns with the TEKS standards, guiding students to solve problems by analyzing information, creating strategies, and using various tools like diagrams, graphs, and technology. I work to ensure your child not only understands Geometry but also communicates their mathematical ideas confidently and effectively, preparing them for academic success and beyond. Whether your child needs support to fill gaps, maintain progress, or thrive at an advanced level, I’m here to help them succeed.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

Prealgebra also incorporates fractions, decimals, conversions between them, and the standard mathematical operations. In short, everything you need to build upon the concepts for algebra. Prealgebra teaches you the meaning of simple expressions and equations. This is when most students learn to use a variable (letter) for an unknown number instead of a "?" question mark or an empty box.
SAT Math

SAT Math

As one of our Campus Interventionist at the high school where I currently teach, one of my main responsibilities is to facilitate student preparation for success on the TSIA, PSAT, SAT, ACT, STAAR EOC, and Texas College Bridge.
STAAR

STAAR

With over 23 years of teaching experience, my students have consistently achieved a passing rate above 90% on the STAAR Algebra I exam, particularly with students who previously struggled. My approach combines targeted intervention and personalized instruction, ensuring that each student can master the material and succeed. Whether your child needs to fill gaps, maintain progress, or thrive at an advanced level, I am here to provide the support they need to succeed. Let’s build their success, one lesson at a time!
TAKS

TAKS

TAKS-Texas Assessment of Knowledge and Skills For the past 11 years I have helped high school students strengthen their math skills to pass the State exam. Let me help you attack the TAKS! Half the TAKS battle is knowing the five representations of a function. The rest is just real-life applications and "math common sense" skills. Let's attack the TAKS together, you can do it!

Helpful, patient and knowledgable tutor

Antoinette is thorough and very patient. She was easy for my shy, introverted kid to open up to. She is clearly dedicated to her students, going above and beyond by making sure that daily practice happens and she and I are both notified if it doesn't so that we can stay on top of the lessons.

Excellent Tutor!

I strongly recommend Mrs. Antoinette! With only 2 weeks of preparation before my TExES Exam, she has helped me understand the concepts of mathematics. I was pleased with all of the tips and personalized information given to help my specific needs. It was such a blessing to work with someone who is truly helpful in making sure you succeed. She helped me grasped the material and in the end achieve a passing score on my exam. Thank you Mrs. Antoinette!

Chassie , 2 lessons with Antoinette

Awesome educated Tutor

As I think about my daughters struggles, without a doubt I know it's Jesus who allow this awesome God fearing women to reach out to me. My daughter had no confidence and didn't have a clue on how to multiply or count by 3's . Her Teacher and I tired many different ways to get her to understand multipling but just couldn't get her to build confidence in herself. After only two 1 hour sessions with Mrs. Antoinette my child has confidence like never before and she is multiply by 3's.

Ranisha, 4 lessons with Antoinette

Danyeal, 1 lesson with Antoinette

Good Tutor

She taught me math and algebra. As she was teaching me she made it seem so easy and I enjoyed everything she taught me. If anyone needs a tutor she would be a good candidate. I would rate her at 4 stars. Please believe me she is a good tutor and she will answer all your questions. After she taught me now I have more confidence so if anyone is looking for a Tutor she would be my choice.
