About Cinda

Bio

My name is Cinda! I have always had a passion for helping students discover confidence and success in math. I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Central Michigan University with a major in Mathematics and a minor in Reading, and later earned my Master’s degree in Reading from Western Michigan University. While I’m also qualified to work as a Reading Specialist, math has always been where my heart is. During my 35 years of teaching in middle schools, I taught 6th, 7th, and 8th grade...

My name is Cinda! I have always had a passion for helping students discover confidence and success in math. I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Central Michigan University with a major in Mathematics and a minor in Reading, and later earned my Master’s degree in Reading from Western Michigan University. While I’m also qualified to work as a Reading Specialist, math has always been where my heart is. During my 35 years of teaching in middle schools, I taught 6th, 7th, and 8th grade math—including advanced courses and Algebra 1 for high school credit—and loved every minute of helping students grow and succeed. During the COVID pandemic, I also learned how to effectively teach and tutor students virtually, helping them stay engaged and supported even in an online setting.

Throughout my career, I’ve taught in many settings: full classrooms, small groups, and one-on-one sessions. I’ve also offered after-school Math Help, tutored students individually and in small groups, and coached MathCounts teams, softball, and cheerleading. Each of these experiences strengthened my ability to connect with students and support them in different ways.

Now that I’m retired, I’m excited to continue doing what I love—supporting students in math. I believe in meeting learners where they are and helping them move forward with encouragement and understanding. Every student learns differently, and I welcome any insights or resources from parents and students to help make our time together as effective and positive as possible. My goal is to help each student build confidence, master new skills, and even find enjoyment in math along the way.

Highly Recommend This Math Tutor!

Working with Mrs. Cinda has been an absolute blessing. Her ability to break down difficult concepts into simple, understandable steps has made a huge difference to my child. She is patient, encouraging, and truly invested in helping students succeed, not just in getting the right answer, but in understanding the process behind it. What stands out most is Mrs. Cinda’s calm approach and the confidence she is building in my child. Math has gone from something stressful to something achievable, possibly even enjoyable. She always shows up prepared, offers clear explanations, and celebrates progress along the way. If you’re looking for someone who not only knows math inside and out but also knows how to teach it with kindness, clarity, and genuine care, Mrs. Cinda is exceptional. We’re incredibly grateful for the growth, confidence, and skills gained through her support. Highly recommend!
