Introduction:

I am a passionate mathematics educator with over a decade of experience helping students bridge the gap between confusion and mastery. My background spans the entire mathematical spectrum, from the foundational concepts of Algebra 1 to the complexities of Advanced University Mathematics and Calculus III. Whether you are a middle school student tackling variables for the first time or a college student navigating multi-variable Calculus, I provide the clear, step-by-step guidance necessary to build confidence and ensure long-term success.

Approach and Specialization:

Beyond traditional coursework, I specialize in high-stakes test preparation, including the SAT Math section and competitive math exams like the AMC. My teaching philosophy centers on more than just memorizing formulas; I focus on the 'why' behind the math. I adapt my methods to fit each student's unique learning style, breaking down intimidating problems into manageable, logical steps. My goal is to transform math from a source of stress into a powerful tool for my students' academic and professional futures.

Approved Subjects

Algebra 2

Algebra 2

I specialize in guiding students through the Credit by Exam (CBE) process, successfully helping many skip high school Algebra 2 requirements through effective, targeted preparation. Additionally, I help students achieve top results on the SAT by strengthening their command of advanced algebraic functions and problem-solving techniques. My approach focuses on building deep conceptual understanding and test-taking confidence through clear, structured, and personalized lessons.
Calculus

Calculus

Having taught AP Calculus since 2012 and serving as an active AP Reader, I have a deep mastery of the grading rubrics used by the College Board. My coaching focuses on teaching you how to structure your Free Response Questions (FRQs) to meet the exact criteria graders look for, ensuring every step of your work earns the credit it deserves.
Geometry

Geometry

I specialize in guiding students through the Credit by Exam (CBE) process, successfully helping many skip high school geometry requirements through effective test preparation. Additionally, I help students achieve top results on the SAT by strengthening their command of the geometry portion of the exam. My approach focuses on building confidence through clear, structured strategies that ensure accuracy and long-term retention.
Precalculus

Precalculus

I have extensive experience guiding students through the AP Precalculus Credit by Exam (CBE) process. My targeted instruction ensures students not only pass their exams but also develop the robust algebraic foundation necessary to succeed in AP Calculus. I focus on bridging the gap between Precalculus and Calculus, ensuring my students enter their next course with confidence and true mathematical readiness.
SAT Math

SAT Math

My teaching method focuses on deconstructing complex problems into manageable, intuitive strategies that build both speed and accuracy. I have a proven track record of helping my students achieve a score improvement of at least 250 points by identifying their specific weaknesses and reinforcing core mathematical concepts. I am passionate about empowering students with the personalized techniques and confidence they need to reach their target scores.
Trigonometry

Trigonometry

I have extensive experience helping high school students navigate the rigors of dual credit mathematics. Trigonometry is often the essential gatekeeper for Calculus, and I specialize in breaking down complex identities, unit circle applications, and function analysis into clear, manageable concepts. My goal is to ensure you not only pass your dual credit course with a high grade but also develop the solid mathematical foundation required for your future university-level coursework.
