I've spent four years as a substitute teacher in the Cleveland Municipal School District, working with students from middle school through high school, and I currently tutor Algebra and Precalculus.
My goal is to make mathematics make sense, not just memorized. I listen closely to how a student is thinking about a problem so I can find exactly where the gap is, then tailor my instruction to close it — an approach I sharpened across four years of reaching students of very different ages and skill levels. I welcome feedback throughout a lesson, since knowing what isn't clicking yet is the fastest way to fix it.
I offer the first half hour free so we can identify your goals and set up a plan together — feel free to reach out anytime to schedule.
My background is actually in art history (BA, Kent State, focused on Architecture) — I've found that an eye trained on visual structure translates surprisingly well to explaining mathematical relationships clearly.
