About Tara


Bio

With over three decades of experience in math education, I have dedicated my career to one thing: facilitating those critical "lightbulb moments" where complex concepts finally make sense.

With 8 years of classroom teaching in a premier STEM Magnet program and 31 years of private tutoring, I offer a level of diagnostic expertise that looks beyond the surface of a math problem. Instead of just helping with tonight’s homework, I focus on the pedagogy of how a student’s brain processes...

With over three decades of experience in math education, I have dedicated my career to one thing: facilitating those critical "lightbulb moments" where complex concepts finally make sense.

With 8 years of classroom teaching in a premier STEM Magnet program and 31 years of private tutoring, I offer a level of diagnostic expertise that looks beyond the surface of a math problem. Instead of just helping with tonight’s homework, I focus on the pedagogy of how a student’s brain processes mathematics—ensuring they don't just finish the assignment, but truly master the material.

The Expert Advantage:

* Master of Education (Curriculum & Instruction): I identify and bridge the foundational gaps that hold students back from high-stakes results.

* 5,000+ Lifetime Hours: Having helped hundreds of students across 33 years, I can often diagnose a student's struggle in minutes that would take others weeks to uncover.

* High-Stakes Mastery: I specialize in moving SAT Math scores into the 700-800 range and helping students navigate the rigors of AP Calculus and IB Math.

Specializations:

* Elite Test Prep: SAT (Math), PSAT, ACT, AP Calculus, and IB Math.

* Core Excellence: Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, and College Algebra.

Proven Results & Transformations:

"I HATED math before I took her class. She was the best math teacher I ever had." — College Student

"She made it easy to understand concepts I had struggled with for years." — SAT Prep Student

If you are looking for a results-driven expert to help your student achieve their own breakthrough, I would love to work with you. I am available for in-person sessions in the Baltimore area and online globally.
