Amara: Hayward tutor
Certified Tutor
Hi! My name is Amara. I have been teaching mathematics for 16 years with a degree in Chemical Engineering. I have taught mathematics in multiple states over 5 states and internationally. I have a deep passion for teaching mathematics. I love building my students' confidence, and understanding, and improving their grades. Additionally, I have trained and coached other math teachers for 10 years of my career. This allows me to understand how each grade level supports the next.
I have worked with students from grades 5-12. The majority of my experience is middle school (6-8) and Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, and ACT math.
With my experience and content knowledge, I understand how to teach both grade-level and foundational skills to students simultaneously. As a teacher, I lead 95% of my students to meet or exceed state proficiency requirements. Most of my students were not on grade level entering my class but were by the end of the year.
If you are a student who is struggling in math or has struggled in the past, I'm the right tutor for you. I have taught thousands of students over the years and I have NEVER met a student I could not help. You or your kid will be no different.
