I am a certified math teacher with 12+ years of teaching and tutoring experience in grades 1 – 12.

I am a certified math teacher with 12+ years of teaching and tutoring experience in grades 1 – 12. Kids are often rushed through the learning process and asked to do problems in a way that does not match their developmental stage. I strive to meet students at their level, whether it be pictorial, concrete, or abstract thinking. In addition, I work to build student confidence, which is critical to math success!
My math degree combined with my classroom experience is in grades 1 – 8, gives me a strong understanding of where students are coming from and where they need to be by the end of 12th grade.
- I provide individual tutoring sessions for students (30, 45, and 60 min) depending on age and attention span.
- I provide support to HOMESCHOOL families/groups, tailoring my services to each unique situation. I love extending learning through fun projects and real-life scenarios.
- I provide math enrichment and remediation to small groups of 4th through 8th grade students. This option is great for summertime math practice as schedules are easier to manage.
- I always incorporate study and executive function skills into each session (discovery of learning styles, time management, organization, and developing study strategies/goals)
- I implemented and trained new teachers in the SINGAPORE math curriculum and am extremely comfortable with this methodology.
- “Tutoring the parent” - I am happy to collaborate with PARENTS to create a remediation plan for struggling or young math students. I provide advice, accommodation suggestions, and weekly games. This works well for young students who learn best through play!
- I earned my gifted endorsement over a two-year period. During this course work, I learned of the important and unique needs of gifted students.
