Tysherrica: Essex County tutor

Certified Tutor

I am a graduate of Columbus State University located in Columbus, GA. I received my Bachelor of Science in Mathematics Secondary Education Certified. Prior to graduation, I worked with children from grades 5th- 12th. Through my UTeach Program, I was able to student teach at Spencer High School where I taught 9th-12th graders in various math classes such as Geometry, Algebra 2, and AP Calculus. I have received CPR certification, planned project-based lesson plans, assist students with their projects and classwork, and held after-school tutorials for many students. I have a passion for teaching and tutoring mathematics. During these times, I have made many great student-teacher connections with the students, reached out to students in need, and became another support factor for those students, which is what I intend to do with Varsity Tutors. In the past, I have taught 6th, 7th and 8th grade math, Algebra, Algebra 2, and Foundations of Algebra. I am currently a Geometry High School Teacher. I am highly dedicated to tutoring because I believe I can help others understand mathematics by scaffolding one's learning, creating hands on activities, use guided learning, and providing effective review study methods. Although math is my favorite subject, I love to tutor Algebra. I love how Algebra is all about steps and computation, which allows me to help others understand by using steps and procedures. Outside of math, I also love to cook, dance, travel, spend time with my family, and health and fitness.
