About
Hi! I'm an experienced IT professional and MD state certified teacher in math and computer science. As an IT professional, I have over 20 years of experience in the industry. I am also passionate about teaching and have enjoyed teaching math. I love math and can help math make sense. I am well versed on the use of technology and integration of technology in the study of all subjects. I have extensive experience in test prep and can offer my students test taking skills.
As a life-long learner, I enjoy tutoring because it is so exciting to see the light-bulb moment when something clicks with one of my students. I know math is not easy for some and I know it can be challenging. I have many different approaches to help my students gain success, including hands-on exercises, technology based activities and games.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
My initial meeting with a new student is to get to know them as a person and find out what they like and don't like. Different people learn different ways so I try to find out the best way to approach my tutoring. I also give a diagnostic test to pin point weaknesses. Sometimes I have to go back a few years to strengthen basic skills. It is hard to be successful in high school math if you are still struggling with multiplication facts! Helping to build up that basic foundation will give you confidence to approach more complex problems.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a bachelor's degree in Computer Information Systems with a minor in Economics. I also hold a master's degree in Secondary Education Math, Computer Science and Business.
