I feel I am qualified for the position of a Varsity Tutor considering my experience as a certified teacher in secondary Math education. Additionally, I have a passion and love for teaching with a belief that all students can learn when Math is made relatable to their everyday lives. One of the main focuses on Math instruction for 21st Century learners is being able to apply Mathematics using reasoning, modeling, and critical thinking. I'm currently teaching at a high school. I've had the pleasure of being an educator for over 15 years. I started out as a substitute teacher but used my math background to help classrooms that did not have certified teachers in them. In 2009, I became a certified Math teacher. I've taught Algebra 2 most of my teaching career. Also, I taught Algebra 1, Geometry, Pre-Calculus and Calculus (Only 1 year). Teaching Math to students can be quite challenging at times, but I've had great success over the years due to my ability to communicate with students in a way they can understand. I like to use real-life experiences that are relevant which students can relate to. I'm a very detailed teacher and love explaining how Math works. I teach Math through questioning and check for understanding. I believe that one skill should build on another and be applied.
