Is your child struggling or under-performing in math? Are you uncomfortable teaching him/her the topics? Does your child become argumentative when you attempt to help? Do they seem prepared but then bomb tests? Are they experiencing math anxiety or avoidance?

I’m here to help.

When I first meet with a family, often times everyone is frustrated. The parent(s) are struggling to help but feel unable to for many reasons. The child is also frustrated and often times has given up. My gentile yet demanding approach to tutoring helps struggling adolescents open up to the idea of working harder while improving their confidence. My expert and intricate knowledge of the k-12 curriculum requirements allows me to pinpoint areas of weakness that need review. I am also able to introduce the next extension for topics so your child will have a head start.

I am a certified and experienced math teacher who current teaches Honors Geometry and Algebra 2. I have previously been the high school’s math interventionist and gave taught 7th and 8th grade mathematic. I have extensive tutoring experience. I am certified to teach grades 5-12 through the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education. I have both a B.S. in Mathematics and Masters in the Arts of Teaching High School Mathematics and B.S. in mathematics.

Awesome tutor!

I had my first session with Allison on 06-19-18, and it went great. She is clearly very knowledgeable on the subject and is also a great teacher. She introduced simple methods which helped me understand things a little more. I look forward to continuing my sessions with her!
