Hello! My name is Rebeca, and I am a math professor with a love for mathematics. At its core, mathematics is simply a form of communication. Through this abstract language, my goal is to help students decipher mathematical symbols into the necessary tools needed to tackle our ever-changing world. My love for mathematics began as a junior in high school. Thanks to the guidance of brilliant and passionate tutors in my life, my desire is to open the mysterious world of mathematics to learners around the globe.
I received my Bachelor's Degree in Secondary Math Education and my Master of Education degree in the spring of 2025 from Hyles-Anderson College. I started my teaching career in the spring of 2023 as a teacher’s assistant for several college-level math courses and as a tutor for struggling middle school, high school, and college students. I became a math professor at Hyles-Anderson College in the spring of 2025 where I currently teach calculus 1-3 and college algebra. Though mathematics may be my main love, I also enjoy other activities: playing classical piano, biking, and eating pizza.
Although I spend most of my days in a traditional classroom, I conduct my tutoring sessions online, for I find online instruction to be the superior form of education today. My tutoring services cover topics in algebra, trigonometry, precalculus, and calculus. My virtual classroom welcomes students of all walks of life, for I believe all learners are capable of succeeding in mathematics. To encourage students to strive toward excellence, I combine traditional tutoring methods with online resources, such as real-time online instruction on a whiteboard via Zoom, step-by-step tutorials, and student-led research projects. I aim to foster a fun and safe learning environment where motivation reigns supreme in the life of a student. I strive to build a strong rapport with every learner by tailoring my tutoring sessions to every individual's needs. I look forward to training future mathematicians and math scholars.
