About
My husband and I have been running a non-profit afterschool program for underprivileged youth since 2001. We have been tutoring students from diverse backgrounds in Kindergarten through 12th grade for the last 18 years. We specialize in the Georgia Milestones math test prep for 3rd, 5th and 8th grades with a 100% passing rate. I also graduated from Georgia State University with a 4.0 GPA in Finance. I am a mother to three boys in the 4th, 6th and 7th grades. Two of my sons have come to love math and improve their skills after a few months of tutoring with me. I hope to use my tutoring experience and educational background to help children who are struggling in math.
I enjoy partnering with my students to create "Aha" moments. My joy is to see the light in a child's eyes when he/she finally grasps a math concept.
