My name is Jacinta and I love to tutor. At the suggestion of my teachers, I started peer-tutoring Spanish and Math in high school and found that I had a real gift for explaining things to people.

I truly enjoy being a part of a person's "ah ha" moment when it all clicks into place. I have helped hundreds of students reach their goals over the years and truly feel that this is my calling. I'm looking forward to helping you.
I have a BS in Mathematics. I peer-tutored all throughout earning this degree. This means that I not only understood the material, but understood it well enough to explain in real-time. Further, I have been tutoring in some capacity for the past 25 years. These skills are fresh for me, and I have the experience of teaching many different types of people and incorporating many different methods over the year.
I am friendly and encouraging. I find that most students don't like math because they don't get it. I can help you like math, or at least, like it more than you do now ;)
