About

Amy has over 20 years experience tutoring math students in middle and high school courses,as well asfas teaching at courses at the University level.

I love tutoring because I get to teach math. As a teacher, I am so focused on lesson prep, grading and classroom management that I don't get to see the light bulb go off in a room full of faces. As a tutor, I get to work with students, build relationships and make sure they really understand the math. Many of my regular students have stayed in touch with me. I love seeing the 'ah ha' moment as well as building more personal relationships.

Amy was able to relate to my teenager in a way other tutors could not. Her relate-ability with my son caused him to work harder as a student. She also worked with a friend of my sons and was able to explain math in a way no one else could. Excellent Tutor - Thank you Amy!

Frequently asked questions

I always reinforce fundamentals with my students when working with complex problems.  I make sure they understand why they are taking the steps they take to solve a problem and not just memorize the process.  The most common feedback I hear from students is "You make it seem so simple". I will help you decode the complex looking math jargon and word problems into the simple question that it really is. 

I have a BA and MA in mathematics. I was a supplemental instructor for my community college and a tutor for the University I transferred to.  I worked for many nation-wide and local tutoring agencies between while finishing my BA.  I began tutoring my own clients in 2007 and by 2014 tutoring was my full-time job.  From 2014-2018 I taught developmental math for the California State University system. 

I have worked with students who struggled with organization, motivation, learning differences and students working on independent studies.  I have also worked with two peers in the same class, siblings in the same class and siblings in different classes for a group rate. I have worked with students on many standardized tests as well.  

Experience matters.  I have been tutoring for nearly 20 years and I have seen the most common mistakes and misunderstanding over and over.  I can quickly identify the places I see errors and fill the gaps immediately.  The more I studied mathematics, the deeper I understood Algebra and Calculus myself, making it much easier to explain to my students in a simple way.
