Crystal: Glendale tutor

Certified Tutor

From an early age, I developed a deep passion for math and science, which led me to earn a degree in Chemical Engineering and a Master's in Manufacturing Systems Engineering. I firmly believe that every student has the potential to excel in mathit's just a matter of identifying gaps in their understanding and helping them master key concepts.

I have experience tutoring college freshmen in math, having worked for a year with the math department at Rutgers University. Additionally, I have spent years teaching and tutoring my two wonderful children and other family members, which has reinforced my belief that building confidence is just as important as building skills. My approach to tutoring is adaptableI don't subscribe to a single teaching philosophy, as every student learns differently. However, patience, clear explanations, and making concepts relatable are at the core of my teaching style.

Beyond math, I also teach the fundamentals of tax preparation to adults, with nearly a decade of experience in this field. When I'm not tutoring, I enjoy gardening, hiking, cooking, juicing, making smoothies, smoking meat on the grill, and cheering on my child as a proud volleyball mom.

My goal is to help students not only improve their math skills but also develop a love for learning. I look forward to being a part of their journey toward success!
