Jessica: Burien tutor
Certified Tutor
As a dedicated educator with a Master's in Teaching and Curriculum from Michigan State University, I bring over 7 years of tutoring and classroom experience, specializing in middle school math, particularly algebra. My teaching philosophy revolves around building meaningful relationships with students, which allows me to customize lessons to fit their unique learning styles and needs. I am passionate about math, having loved it since my own school days, and I thrive on witnessing that "light bulb" moment when a student grasps a challenging concept. I utilize a variety of teaching strategies, including breaking topics into manageable parts and incorporating real-world applications to make learning engaging. Beyond the classroom, I enjoy reading and creative activities that encourage critical thinking, further inspiring my students to appreciate the joy of learning.
