About Carrie


Bio

My students don’t just meet their goals. They often exceed them.

Hi, I’m Carrie. Your child’s goal may be a higher math grade, a better score on a standardized or entrance exam, success on an end-of-course test, or a passing AP score. No matter the goal, I have a proven record of helping students get real, measurable results.

I have worked with students in grades 4 through 12. This has given me a deep understanding of the common learning gaps that can cause problems year after...

My students don’t just meet their goals. They often exceed them.

Hi, I’m Carrie. Your child’s goal may be a higher math grade, a better score on a standardized or entrance exam, success on an end-of-course test, or a passing AP score. No matter the goal, I have a proven record of helping students get real, measurable results.

I have worked with students in grades 4 through 12. This has given me a deep understanding of the common learning gaps that can cause problems year after year.

My students often see results quickly, but those results also last. I use teaching methods found in some of the best school systems in the world. My goal is not just to help students pass the next test. I want them to build skills they can use throughout school.

Some students need only a few sessions. Others need support over a longer period of time. Either way, I begin by quickly finding each student’s strengths and weaknesses. This helps us find some quick wins. Those early wins build confidence and help students feel more motivated.

It also keeps us focused on exactly what the student needs, so none of our time together is wasted.

We can focus only on our tutoring sessions, or I can recommend games and other simple activities your child can use during the week to practice and build stronger skills.

I look forward to getting started!

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have 25 years of experience teaching math at the middle and high school levels, including Algebra 1 and AP courses. I have taught math grades 6 through 12 and worked with students at every level of ability. Many of my students have raised failing grades to A-level test performance within just a few sessions. My focus is on increasing understanding, raising grades, and helping students feel confident in their math abilities.
Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I have been teaching Math for over 20 years, including several years of teaching Algebra 2. I have a strong understanding of the benchmarks and End of Course Exams.
Common Core

Common Core

I am a credentialed mathematics teacher with 25 years of experience teaching students across grades 4–12. I have extensive experience using Common Core standards to plan instruction, create assessments, identify learning gaps, and help students master grade-level math skills. Because I have taught across many grade levels, I understand how the standards build from one year to the next and can identify the earlier gaps that may be holding a student back. I use that knowledge to provide focused instruction that helps students improve both their understanding and their results.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I specialize in upper elementary math (grades 4–6) and have extensive experience helping students strengthen foundational skills before transitioning into middle school math. I work with students on fractions, decimals, multi-step word problems, ratios, and early pre-algebra concepts, focusing on both accuracy and true conceptual understanding. My approach emphasizes structure, clear step-by-step reasoning, and building number sense so students gain independence and confidence. Many students I work with improve not only their grades, but also their ability to approach new problems without frustration.
GED

GED

I have been tutoring adults to help prepare them to take the GED test for over 10 years. All of my students have passed the exam and received the necessary results to accomplish their goals.
Logic

Logic

I studied logic extensively while completing my mathematics coursework and earning my teaching credential. Courses such as discrete mathematics, number theory, Euclidean geometry, and calculus required me to apply formal rules of logic, analyze arguments, construct proofs, and identify errors in reasoning. More specifically, logic is formally taught in Euclidean Geometry (an upperclass Math College Course) and it's been included in some of the Geometry curriculum I've taught in High School.
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

I have 25 years of experience teaching math in grades 6 through 12, including middle and high school math (including AP level courses) and Pre-Algebra. I have helped students strengthen core skills in fractions, integers, equations, and problem-solving so they are fully prepared for Algebra. Many students who begin struggling see noticeable improvement within the first few sessions. My focus is on increasing understanding, raising grades, and helping students feel confident in their math abilities.
