...years ago and found I really enjoyed helping clarify sticking points for students. Everyone needs a little one-on-one boost at times to get them over a hurdle, and too often that hurdle can discourage students from pursuing their dreams. My true passion is tutoring Algebra because I believe it is so foundational in Math coursework and too many students just "get through" and struggle in the next class.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading, hiking, and...
