I'm Torri! I graduated college with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education, a Masters in Mathematics Education, and a Doctorate in Curriculum and Instruction. Throughout school, I realized the my love for math was fostered by the teachers who made the classes enjoyable. These teachers were always engaging and comprehensible when teaching the material in the classroom, and willing to go the extra mile when I asked for additional help or clarification.
I try to bring this knowledge to my tutoring approach, and do everything I can to make learning a pleasant experience. I use lesson plans in which I usually introduce the topic in a fun and creative way, then explicitly teach the material. Afterwards I always ensure time for students to practice the material on their own. Of course, this method can be adjusted based on student's individual needs.
I have over 15 years of tutoring experience and 8 years of teaching experience . I worked directly with students in all setting, from 25+ classroom size, 5-7 students in small groups, and 1on1 tutoring sessions. As a dedicated educator, I want to benefit the students I work with as much as possible, therefore welcome any resources or suggestions students or parents can provide. I am easy to reach and will always provide fast
responses. Feel free to contact me with any additional questions or to schedule a lesson!
