Hello! I specialize in helping kindergarten through middle school students build strong math foundations and lasting confidence. My approach is calm, patient, and encouraging — especially supportive for students who feel frustrated, anxious, or unsure about math.

I have several years of experience tutoring students from kindergarten through 8th grade. I love helping early learners build number sense, basic arithmetic skills, and comfort with math from the very beginning. For older elementary and middle school students, I support growth in pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, and foundational problem-solving skills.

While studying Mechanical Engineering at University of Detroit Mercy, I also competed in the American Mathematical Association of Two-Year Colleges (AMATYC) Student Mathematics League. Today, I work as an FAA-licensed Aircraft Dispatcher, where I use math daily to safely plan and monitor domestic and international flights. I share this with students to show them that math is not just something in a textbook — it is a powerful skill that opens real-world opportunities.

In our sessions, I focus on helping students truly understand why methods work instead of memorizing steps. I gently guide them through problems, celebrate progress, and help them develop organization and study habits that support long-term success. I also communicate closely with parents so we can work as a team.

My goal is simple: to help students feel calm, capable, and confident — and to show them that with steady practice and encouragement, they can grow stronger every week.

Career Development

Career Development

I am an FAA-licensed Aircraft Dispatcher with professional training in flight planning, aviation weather, and airline operations. My background includes dispatch procedures, operational control, and interpreting complex weather and NOTAM data used in real-world aviation environments. I help students preparing for aircraft dispatcher training programs, aviation coursework, and aviation career pathways understand key operational concepts such as flight planning, weather analysis, and dispatch decision-making. My goal is to break down complex aviation topics into clear, practical explanations so students can build confidence and succeed in aviation training or certification programs.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I have a strong foundation in math and am comfortable teaching elementary concepts such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, fractions, and basic problem solving. I enjoy explaining concepts step by step so students understand how the math works and can build confidence as they practice.
