I know it may seem weird to many, but I absolutely love math, especially algebra. :) Something that I may love even more than algebra itself though is helping students learn algebra. It is my pleasure to help those in need, and I am very patient in working with students. I am open to learners at all levels and have no problem going back to whatever basics are necessary. When it comes to my teaching method, I am able to teach through straight forward, systematic steps, yet I cater to whatever my students need, and many times I find myself using "out-of-the-box" methods. I am able to tutor using current work distributed in class, or I am able to bring material to work on to enforce key concepts or reteach concepts in order so that the student is ready for the next level of material/class.

I have a degree in accounting, and I am currently pursuing/finishing my master's degree in school counseling. With this being said, I not only have the educational credentials to teach math skills, but also the heart of a counselor: patient, encouraging, and willing to search out the learner's needs. I achieved 4.0 GPAs throughout high school and took all honors math courses throughout. I currently work as a middle school teacher. I have tutored students "officially" throughout the past year, yet I have been helping kids in my church family when needed and have helped out students and classmates in math since my high school years. Also, I have experience working with students who may have some learning deficits or attention problems, and that is something that I am more driven towards rather than driven away from. I would be honored to work with that learner if that is you or your son/daughter. One of my greatest joys is helping to lead students in to an understanding of concepts and seeing that "Aha!" expression come across their face. I enjoy being around young kids because they bring me to life, so I look forward to the opportunity to work with you or your son/daughter. : )

In addition, I am open to discussing ot
