I am here because I want to help those who want to improve their understanding and success in mathematics. I have a passion for teaching students and have a very strong background in mathematics. Not because I was born a "math" person, but because I worked hard (and continue to work hard) at understanding the underlying concepts behind the math we are taught in K-12. I love asking the question "Why?!" as it is one thing to get the right answer and another thing to know WHY your answer makes sense. I am very detail oriented when explaining. I am honest and upfront with students when I am unsure of a question they ask and will do my best to use my resources to investigate their question if it is beyond my scope of understanding. I look forward to helping individuals on this platform! :)
