Hello! I am Tyonda. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Electrical Engineering from Texas Tech University and a Master of Science in Software Engineering from Southern Methodist University. I am also a certified Texas Math (4-8) teacher currently working in the classroom. With over 20 years of tutoring experience, I bring a unique blend of engineering logic and professional teaching strategies to help students succeed.While math is my favorite subject, English is a close second! It might seem unusual for an engineer to love writing, but I am just as enthusiastic about tutoring reading, grammar, and spelling as I am about teaching calculus.My ultimate goal is to ensure coursework is deeply understood, not just memorized. To achieve this, I identify each student’s unique learning style and adapt my methods to match. This custom approach keeps students engaged, builds their confidence, and gives them tools they can use across all of their studies. I absolutely love seeing the breakthrough moments when a student masters a tough concept!My Specialties Include:Certified Middle School Math (Grades 4-8): Expert classroom guidance aligned with state standards.Advanced Mathematics: Comprehensive tutoring for Algebra 1 & 2, Geometry, Trigonometry, and Calculus (I earned straight A's in all of these college-level courses).High-Stakes Test Prep: Targeted strategies for the STAAR test, SAT Math, and SAT/ACT English (including grammar and writing mechanics).Nursing Test Prep: Specialized math preparation for prospective nursing students tackling the TEAS and HESI entrance exams.Language Arts & Writing: Elementary through high school reading comprehension, essay composition, and spelling. (I have also sponsored and judged local spelling bees and writing competitions for over 10 years).It is my desire to teach each student to the highest level of their potential, unlocking the absolute best version of themselves. I look forward to partnering with you and your student. Feel free to reach out to schedule our first session!
