Certified Tutors From Gonzaga University

I am a secondary math teacher with over ten years of tutoring experience. I graduated with a degree in Biology from Washington State University and a Masters in secondary education from Gonzaga University. I love helping students master the concepts that they need to be successful in their classes and on their tests!

...incorporating music in language studies, and simply teaching through repetition with immediate feedback.

...a willingness to learn. I myself started very slowly in intermediate college math courses, but gradually the subject matter was known with practice, which eventually enabled me to appreciate math as an art.
