About Ingrid


Bio

I believe that learning math should be a positive experience. I love math because it is a subject that allows you to figure things out using critical thinking skills. It is a good opportunity to develop better strategies and become an effective problem solver. I have over 30 years of experience teaching math in the classroom and tutoring students one-on-one. I have a Master's degree in math education and have served on many math curriculum writing committees. I know how to make math...

I believe that learning math should be a positive experience. I love math because it is a subject that allows you to figure things out using critical thinking skills. It is a good opportunity to develop better strategies and become an effective problem solver. I have over 30 years of experience teaching math in the classroom and tutoring students one-on-one. I have a Master's degree in math education and have served on many math curriculum writing committees. I know how to make math meaningful and easy to understand through hands-on activities and real-world situations. My focus is always on understanding concepts rather than simply knowing how to get the answers. I enjoy teaching students of all ages from elementary to high school, helping them to make connections to previous learning. I have helped struggling students succeed, but frequently, my students are high-achieving students who want to get ahead and prepare for upcoming courses. I have prepared students to take the COGAT test and the ISEE test to get accepted into gifted programs and private schools. I excel at assessing students' strengths and weaknesses and increasing skill levels and confidence. I currently tutor students in person in the Richardson, Plano, Allen, Frisco, and McKinney areas.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 1

Algebra 1

I have taught Algebra 1 for many years. My experience is with all levels but I am drawn to students with learning differences. I can build students' confidence in themselves and help them be better problem solvers. I can identify skill gaps and work to fill those to improve performance in algebra.
Elementary (K-6th)

Elementary (K-6th)

I have taught students grades K - high school. I also have many years experience writing math activities and assessments for elementary. I have a special interest in early number development as well. I believe that we must help students acquire number sense.
Elementary Math

Elementary Math

I taught 5th grade math for about 16 years in Plano. During that time I was a math specialist for the district and was involved in curriculum writing and mentoring teachers. I have also taught Kindergarten and 4th grade.
Geometry

Geometry

I am currently teaching geometry. I love geometry because it requires logical reasoning. It is a very visual subject and I am a very visual learner and teacher. Geometry problems are based on figures and real-world applications. I can help students make sense of those postulates and theorems!
Prealgebra

Prealgebra

As a high school algebra and geometry I know what skills are required to be successful in high school. I have experience teaching a pre-algebra class and have tutored kids to get them ready for algebra.
Study Skills

Study Skills

I can help students prepare study material and practice study skills to prepare for tests. My expertise is in math of all levels. I believe that prior knowledge frequently gets lost when learning new material. By supporting new learning with acquired skills, students do better on tests!
TAKS

TAKS

I have given the TAKS test for many years to high school students. I understand the objectives and structure of the test. I teach high school and enjoy students of that age. I also have experience with teaching students with learning differences and have worked with ESL students.

We love Ms. Ingrid!

Ms. Ingrid has been tutoring my 12-year-old daughter since the beginning of this previous summer. The difference in her has been incredible, both on paper and in her attitude towards the subject. Last year, she struggled to get 60s-70s in math. This year, she is looking at a 95% or higher for the first 9 weeks of school. We will be using Ms. Ingrid's services for as long as she has us. We are now forever fans!

Exactly what I was looking for

After moving to the DFW area, I had no idea where to begin with math support for my 7th grader and was so overwhelmed. Ingrid came in and saved the day. Her instruction was amazing and her experience is priceless. I am truly thankful we found her and look forward to many more math lessons together!

Hire her!

Ingrid is super-nice, understands everything you're doing, and helped me get an A on my math test. Helps my 9-year-old sister understand math concepts in a fun and engaging way.

Great review for Ingrid H.

Simply Ingrid is a great teacher,tutor. Ingrid helped my kids to become independent learners. Ingrid has motivation and involvement during each session, which is great.

Jahan, 89 lessons with Ingrid

She's friendly and has a excellent understanding of Geometry

She's been able to jump in any section and analyze where my daughter is and ensure her understanding of that section. My daughter's understanding has improved with Ingrids teaching. She's patient and positive and on time. We enjoy having her and will continue to use her as my daughter progresses into high school math.

Christine, 2 lessons with Ingrid

Awesome Teacher

My son's grades markedly improved after only a few lessons. She is so worth it. We decided to keep her long term and now doing 2 hours a week. She is patient, pleasant and very knowledgeable. My son is extremely satisfied and looks forward to her lessons. I highly recommend her.

Excellent Tutor

Ingrid is an excellent teacher with years of experience. I highly recommend this teacher to any student who needs help in math.

Laura, 3 lessons with Ingrid

We love Ingrid!

My daughter has struggled with math since 3rd grade. I found Ingrid when she started 8th, and it's been a game changer for us. My daughter and Ingrid clicked from the beginning; she is the most clear, concise, and patient teacher, which has really helped her confidence in math. Ingrid clearly explains each concept from homework/test reviews/EOC review or anything my child is struggling with. She's on time, she communicates with me on a weekly basis on scheduling and completes evaluations quickly. Her tutoring services have been 100% worth the investment in my child's success. I highly recommend Ingrid!
