About Teresa


Bio

As a math major at Yale University, I was able to study the subject I love the most! When I began teaching I realized that not everyone shared my enthusiasm about math. Through my 17 years of teaching I have discovered that when students understand math and feel confident, they enjoy it much more.

With that in mind, as I work with a student, I first seek to determine what strengths and weaknesses he or she has, and use those strengths to build understanding of the concepts being studied. I...

As a math major at Yale University, I was able to study the subject I love the most! When I began teaching I realized that not everyone shared my enthusiasm about math. Through my 17 years of teaching I have discovered that when students understand math and feel confident, they enjoy it much more.

With that in mind, as I work with a student, I first seek to determine what strengths and weaknesses he or she has, and use those strengths to build understanding of the concepts being studied. I have taught many levels of math, from 6th grade through AP Statistics, and look forward to helping many more students find success in math.

I have deep knowledge of math, and I can help students to understand why a procedure works, without just resorting to "tricks".

I'd love to hear from you to talk about how I can help you, and to set up a time to meet!

Helpful and patient

Teresa is so patient and teaches in a way my daughter now understands. She is a life saver and so happy we found her to help understand and grasp the concepts. Highly recommend having Teresa help your child. I am so happy we found her. Last tutoring session my daughter got a 96 on her test. Tonight was review for her final tomorrow and she is now more confident for tomorrow’s test. Teresa explains everything so well and teaches the building blocks needed. Highly recommend hiring Teresa for your child if they are having math issues.

Teresa and my daughter reviewed some things that she had already worked on in class that she struggled with. She was so happy after the session because Teresa just made it make sense to her. Definitely recommend and will use again in the future.

Teresa taught my daughter algebra 2. A test was coming up and her grade was a 74.9. One tutoring session with Teresa who explained the subject and taught it to her raised her grade after her test to a 80.58!! We will be using her again because my daughter was able to learn and understand the concept whereas before she could not grasp it. Highly recommend hiring her. As we will since her geometry grade just came in and we now will need help in both now.
