I received my Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics from the University of Jordan and went on to build a career in Mathematics education, spending more than 25 years teaching high school mathematics in the United Arab Emirates. During my time in the UAE, I taught a wide range of advanced mathematics courses, including Precalculus, Calculus, and Trigonometry, as well as mathematics courses aligned with the AP curriculum. I also have extensive experience preparing students for the SAT and AP examinations, , helping them attain competitive scores and pursue opportunities to continue their education in the United States. In addition to my classroom teaching, I provided private one-on-one tutoring to students preparing for IB Mathematics examinations, helping them strengthen their understanding, improve their performance, and achieve their target scores.
Over the years, I have worked with students with a wide range of abilities and learning needs, and I have found that students learn mathematics best when they understand the reasoning behind a problem rather than simply memorizing formulas. My tutoring approach is therefore centered on building a strong conceptual foundation and developing practical problem-solving skills. I break difficult topics into manageable steps, work through examples with students, and then guide them through problems independently so they can develop confidence in their own abilities. I also adapt my teaching style and pace based on each student's strengths, challenges, and goals.
Whether a student is struggling with a particular topic, preparing for an important examination, or looking to strengthen their foundation and excel in an advanced mathematics course, my goal is to meet them where they are and help them progress. After more than 25 years in the classroom, I have learned that patience, clear explanations, and understanding each student's individual needs are just as important as knowing the mathematics itself.
