If you are looking for a tutor who understands both mathematics and how students learn mathematics, I would be glad to work with you. I am a fourth-year PhD student in Mathematics Education at Oklahoma State University, where I study secondary mathematics teaching and learning. I also hold a Bachelor of Science in Mathematics from Northeastern State University, where I graduated summa cum laude. I have six years of tutoring experience and five years of mathematics teaching experience.
My experience with high school students has focused specifically on SAT Math and ACT Math tutoring. In test-preparation lessons, I begin by asking about your target score and testing timeline. Then, I’ll provide test-question practice, and we will go through it together. During this, I analyze patterns in missed questions, strengthen weak content areas, teach efficient solution methods and pacing, and help you use Desmos on digital tests or a permitted TI-83/84 calculator effectively. I don't simply show you how to reach an answer — I help you understand why a method works, when to use it, and how to avoid repeating the same mistakes.
At the college level, I have taught and worked with students in College Algebra, Mathematical Functions, Trigonometry, Precalculus, and Calculus through classroom instruction, office hours, mathematics labs, one-on-one tutoring, and online learning. Through these experiences, I have learned to recognize where students get stuck and adjust my approach to help them develop a deeper understanding of the mathematics. Whether your goal is to raise your course grade, prepare for an exam, rebuild foundations from an earlier course, or feel less anxious about math, I will tailor our sessions to your specific needs and help you become a more capable, confident, and independent mathematical thinker.
