...tackle major concepts that they never quite grasped in the first place. I find that many students deal with test anxiety or have mental blocks about certain topics (hello Math!), and I enjoy working with them to overcome those challenges as needed. (It doesn't hurt that I'm also a certified childbirth doula; it may sound strange, but some of those same breathing, relaxation, and visualization techniques can be surprisingly effective when it comes to taking...

...someone else. Tutoring is one of the greatest ways to learn about others, as well as oneself. In the last five months that I have been tutoring, I have developed so much, all thanks to the many students with whom I have worked.

I have always loved math, and am currently taking Calculus II at our local community college as a review and to help me keep on top of my game. I have tutored many different students, both in Albuquerque, New Mexico and in North Carolina. I spent 15 years...

I am a very patient tutor and I understand the frustration of mathematics. I must not only help you understand mathematics but to develop your skills in being an independent learner, increasing your confidence, and setting you up for success. I am comfortable working with any student's learning level to determine if the student needs reinforcement from previous concepts or challenging them with difficult and complex problems.

...and watch their expression as the knowledge sinks in. I was educated in the state of New Mexico: public schools in Albuquerque and BS, MS, and PhD physics degrees from the University of New Mexico (UNM). I have taught Astronomy classes at UNM as a graduate student and in post-doctoral positions. I prefer to teach astronomy, mathematics, and physics, but can make sense of most sciences. My teaching philosophy is simply to get the student...

I firmly believe that my greatest strengths lie in organizing information into a logical framework supported by facts and statistics, coupled with my proven ability to present my findings in a concise, coherent, clear and utterly compelling manner.
