I am a graduate of Delaware State University where I obtain a Bachelors of Science in Mathematics and a Masters in Teaching Mathematics from the University of Southern California. I have been tutoring students since 2007, and I am currently a certified teacher. My favorite subject to teach in Geometry because it has so much real application to our daily lives from the clothes that we wear to the cars that we drive. I am a fan of football, fashion, and cooking.

The objective of my teaching style will be to make everything relevant to the interest of the student in order that learning will not seem dull and boring, yet fun, exciting, and useful. I believe in the statement, "If it can be taught, then it can be learned." There is no special gene identifying the ability to learn mathematics. The need is for the right tools in achieving understanding of the beauty of mathematics. The real beauty of math is there is more than one way to conceptually think about a problem and still come out with a correct answer because math is an exact science.

Q & A

What is your teaching philosophy?

The rationale for my teaching philosophy is based on my personal belief that teaching is the most rewarding profession and provides benefits for a lifetime. Students receive rewards as teachers demonstrate and build mathematical skill development. I am a teacher who has high expectations that all students are capable of learning mathematics. Many students come into the mathematics classroom with the face of defeat, thinking they have already lost the battle of succeeding. This thought may be a factor for my students initially, but their outcome will be becoming logical problem solvers. Teaching is the best contribution through which I could influence society. I have the motivation and the confidence to bring the best out of every student. Students will know that I mean business and sense the seriousness while having fun learning.
