I am currently ending my second year as a 7th/8th grade math teacher and before that taught 6th/7th grade math for 8 years. I tutor students from 3rd-11th grade in math and love working one on one with students of varying abilities.
I earned my Bachelors of Arts in Economics at the University of Illinois in Champaign. I earned my Masters in Education at North Park University.
My teaching philosophy centers on a student centered approach and I have offered my students a fully self-paced math curriculum for the last 8 years. My tutoring style is laid back, allowing the students to show me what they know already and then to help them address any weaknesses to build their math knowledge.
