- I have my Bachelors in Mathematics, my Masters in Math Secondary Education, and teach at a local urban high school.
About Me
I love teaching, especially math and SAT Prep. I feel like those subjects cause the most anxiety, and my job is to undo the stigma of difficulty surrounding these subjects, and help students embrace their potential. I tutor elementary, middle and high school math and English, and elementary and middle school science. I also tutor SAT Prep, including study skills and tips and tricks for students with ADD/ADHD and anxiety and depression. My children have taught me a new level of patience, and I think my tutoring reflects that. My teaching philosophy is simple: find out who your student is, and teach them. Just them. They are the most important person in the room, focus on just what they need. Outside of teaching, I love leading crafting classes at my local libraries, knitting, reading, TV, movies, exploring new foods and places, and dogs. My favorite things to do include walking my dog, read, or create art with stained glass or knitting.
