I have taught math courses ranging from 5th grade math to Calculus. I attended Charleston Southern University and, in 2006, earned a Bachelor's degree in Secondary Math Education and received the Math Graduate of the Year Award. I have instructed in various capacities such as public high school math teacher, private high school math teacher, private middle school math teacher, online middle school instructor, tutor, mentor, and staff development creator and facilitator.
I have extensive experience supporting neurodivergent students, including autistic learners and students with ADHD or executive functioning challenges. I prioritize creating a calm, structured learning environment with clear routines, predictable expectations, and step by step guidance. My approach is grounded in patience, flexibility, and respect for each student’s communication style and processing needs. I work collaboratively with families and support teams to ensure that students feel safe, capable, and empowered to learn at a pace that honors their strengths.
With 20 years of experience teaching and individually tutoring online, I have several tricks up my sleeve to skillfully meet each student's needs.
