Hello! My name is Paula C., and I am a licensed teacher with 17+ years of experience helping students at all levels. My background blends classroom teaching with technology training, making learning both practical and engaging.

For 9 years, I taught Math 8, Algebra I, and Algebra II, guiding students to build confidence in problem-solving and preparing them for success in class and on exams. I also have 8+ years of experience teaching coding, including Python, Scratch, and SQL, and enjoy showing students how abstract concepts connect to real-world applications.

Beyond math and coding, I teach Microsoft Office (Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Access) and data tools such as Tableau, Power BI, and SSRS. I’ve helped college students and professionals strengthen workplace skills, prepare for certifications, and advance in their careers.

Although my profile shows Fairfax, VA, I tutor online nationwide through Zoom, offering the same personalized support as in-person sessions with added convenience.

My teaching style is patient, supportive, and adaptable. I break down difficult concepts into clear steps and meet students where they are.

Success Stories:

A middle schooler who dreaded Algebra began to say she “liked math for the first time” after a few weeks of practice.

A high schooler built confidence in Python and ended the semester coding his own projects.

An adult learner mastered Excel and Power BI and later earned a workplace promotion.

Whether you’re a parent, a student, or a professional, my goal is to help you improve skills while building lasting confidence and independence.

Let’s work together to achieve your goals!
