With over 25 years of experience teaching elementary and middle school students,
I have dedicated my career to helping learners build strong academic foundations
and greater confidence in math. As a former middle school math and science
teacher, I understand that many students need concepts explained in clear,
manageable steps and at a pace that feels comfortable. I work with students in
grades 1–8, focusing on essential skills such as fractions, decimals, ratios, word

I have dedicated my career to helping learners build strong academic foundations
and greater confidence in math. As a former middle school math and science
teacher, I understand that many students need concepts explained in clear,
manageable steps and at a pace that feels comfortable. I work with students in
grades 1–8, focusing on essential skills such as fractions, decimals, ratios, word
problems, and preparation for pre-algebra and beginning algebra. I hold a
Professional Clear Multiple Subject Teaching Credential with CLAD certification
and bring extensive classroom, online teaching, and long-term substitute
experience across grades K–12.
When we work together, you can expect a patient, encouraging learning
environment where it is safe to ask questions and take the time needed to truly
understand new ideas. I will help you stay organized, practice important skills, and
develop strategies that make math feel more manageable and less stressful.
Parents can expect clear communication, structured lessons, and steady progress
over time. My goal is not only to support improved grades and test performance,
but also to help students become more independent, confident learners who feel
prepared for future math challenges.
