I have been a math teacher for the past 3.5 years, teaching a wide range of courses including Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus, College Algebra, and 7th8th grade math. Over that time, I've worked with students at many different skill levels, from those building foundational skills to those preparing for college-level math. I became a teacher because I noticed a growing concern in the United States around declining math performance, and I wanted to be part of the solution. While working part-time at Grand Canyon University during my degree program, I discovered how much I enjoy helping others learn and build confidence. Combining that with my natural strength in math and passion for teaching led me into education. I believe math is one of the most important skills a person can develop because it directly impacts everyday lifefrom financial decisions to problem-solving and long-term opportunities. My goal is to help students build a strong mathematical foundation that supports them beyond the classroom and helps them avoid unnecessary financial or academic struggles later in life. No matter a student's past experience with math, I believe everyone is capable of success with patience, effort, and the right support. My approach is focused on clarity, encouragement, and breaking down concepts in a way that makes math feel accessible and achievable.
