I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Mike: Spokane County tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a High School Math Teacher with an extensive math background and passion to see students reach their full potential. Currently I am a Pre-Caclulus teacher, but have over five years of experience teaching, and tutoring, all high school math courses and even some college courses.

I obtained a Bachelors and Masters in Math from the University of North Florida and worked as a Graduate Teaching Assistant during my time in Grad School. While in Grad School I gained experience in tutoring students in College Algebra, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and Statistics. Since graduating, I have taught Algebra I, Geometry, Algebra II, and Pre-Calculus in Nashville, TN.

In my five years of teaching, I have found a great passion for teaching math. I absolutely love being able to interact with students on a daily basis and the challenge of leading them to an understanding of math concepts. I have experience teaching students with various personalities and abilities, and have enjoyed seeing each of them achieve at high levels and maximize their potential.

As a teacher my goal is for my students to have a conceptual understating of the content at hand. Through my years of teaching experience and extensive math background, I have the skills and resources to lead students to such an understanding, regardless of their ability or background.

Outside of teaching I'm a huge sports nerd. I know an unhealthy amount of sports trivia and love playing just about any sport that isn't associated with cold weather.
