I am a graduate of Penn State University. I received a Bachelor of Science in Applied Mathematics and a Bachelor of Arts in Spanish. I have been tutoring since I was a junior in college. Upon graduation, I've continued my love of math by teaching (28 yrs) and tutoring. While teaching, I went back to school to earn my teaching certificate in grades 6-12.
The main ages I work with are 13-18; however, I have worked with younger aged kids, college students, and even some adult students who returned back to college. I believe every student can learn math. My students describe me as firm but fair, which I believe is accurate. I try to relate the topic being learned to something applicable in the world. This is not always possible, but I am always looking for new ways to explain a topic or a new approach to solving a problem.
If you are looking for an AP math tutor, you found one! My students consistently score above the state, national, and global average in every category. I've been teaching AP Calculus AB and BC for over 10 years each and I've taught AP Statistics for 8 years.
I have taught in private, charter, and public schools. No matter where I've taught, I have created bonds with students, some that have lasted 20 years. I love what I do, and I love to teach people math.
