About this tutor
I have been a certified teacher for 33 years, have a masters degree in education, and retired in May 2019. I know how to reach and help students so they can grow and reach their full potential. Building self confidence and sharing learning strategies in math and reading is a key to helping students perform better in the classroom.

Kids are our future. We need to build confidence and make them realize they are important. I enjoy helping students believe in themselves and become confident learners.
