Effective math tutor who specializes in overcoming math anxiety

I have a lot of experience in teaching math both in the classroom and tutoring students at home. While with Cincinnati Public Schools I was the math department head at several different schools and did most of the home visit math studies for students who were not able to come to school because of chronic sickness or injury. I also did my time with the district's tutoring lines. Because of my experience in this area I was also one of the people recommended by the district to students who had trouble in their senior year passing the Ohio Graduation Exam. Every student I helped passed the exam in time to graduate.

In addition, my math career includes an almost 10 year stint teaching in the University of Cincinnati's Upward Bound program. My basic duties were teaching Saturday math enrichment in four different high school levels. Basic course work was algebras I & II, geometry, trigonometry, and calculus. I also had sections on statistics and pre-calculus. During the summers I also taught their math courses during the 6 week residency sections. This also included tutoring students on Wednesday evenings.

I am a student centered educator who is very adept at quickly learning student's learning styles and adapting my lesson to their style and ability.

During my career I have successfully taught students how to know and understand math. With few exceptions, my students came out of my classes and sessions feeling confident in their ability to do math. I won't promise you that you will love math after being with me, but I do know that you will no longer fear math.
