About

I have been tutoring math students for 17 years, mostly as a volunteer at local elementary and middle school. I also have experience tutoring math students at the middle and high school level, especially Pre-Algebra, Algebra, Algebra 2, Pre-Calculus and Calculus.

My goal, for every student that I tutor, is to provide complete understanding of the math process, assessment of all areas of confusion that are a byproduct of years of misperception and misunderstanding, and poor teaching. I hope all students will be able to come to feel comfortable with math ideas through understanding.

I believe every student can understand math, overcome math anxiety and learn how much fun and satisfaction there is in confidently working on, solving and truly understanding how math actually works.

I have finished a math BA for Single Subject Teaching from Western Governors University.

I am a certified Montessori teacher and taught preschool and primary students for 15 years.

I have volunteered at local elementary and middle schools within the past 10 years.

I have had high school and beginning college tutoring clients, that I have worked one with on one, over the past 17 years.

I love math and enjoy helping others discover how much fun math can be. I really enjoy when students have an ah-ha! moment and they know they have overcome a hurdle of math comprehension.

I feel learning is a lifelong endeavor and am happy to be a part of each student's path to enjoying learning.

Frequently asked questions

I always find it most beneficial to talk with a student to review their likes and dislikes about the material. I also go over their work samples with them. I walk them through problems to observe where their misconceptions manifest and where they have trouble spots in their comprehension. My manner and demeanor is relaxed, supportive and nonjudgmental.
