I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Mathematics from Virginia Tech and a Master’s degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Grand Canyon University. With a strong foundation in both content knowledge and pedagogy, I bring a well-rounded academic background to my tutoring practice. I also hold a certification in yoga instruction, which I integrate into my teaching to support students’ emotional and mental well-being - particularly those who experience anxiety around math.
I have taught math for seven years across both middle and high school levels, including one year abroad in the UK, which expanded my perspective on diverse learning environments and student needs. My experience includes working in traditional classroom settings as well as one-on-one and small-group instruction. I emphasize clarity, patience, and adaptability in my tutoring, using a student-centered approach that blends conceptual understanding with practical problem-solving. By incorporating mindfulness and grounding techniques, I help students build confidence, reduce stress, and approach math with a calm and focused mindset. This holistic method has proven especially effective for students who struggle with math anxiety or need extra support developing a positive relationship with the subject.
