About
I have been a math tutor for eleven years, and I love it! I love math, and I get great satisfaction from sharing that love. I have a BS in computer engineering and am a certified math teacher in two states. I have a great talent for diagnosing gaps in understanding and I know how to fill them.
From a young age I would lie awake at night thinking about the math that I was learning in school, deconstructing the algorithms that my teachers were teaching me. As a result I have a very deep understanding and good number sense and I am able to explain concepts in a way that makes sense to your brain! Everyone is a math person if the math is explained your way. I have a lot of hands-on manipulatives to help along the way!
I would love to help you discover how wonderful math is! Contact me for more information!
Math tickles my brain! I love the logic of it! I love the beauty of it! I love sharing this joy with others! I can help you find a love for math!

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
During our first session I am happy to work on anything that you find urgent, but the best benefit will be found after I can do some diagnostic testing. I will listen to the student and parent, if applicable, to understand what your concerns are first. Once we are satisfied that I understand your needs, I will do some diagnostic testing, which will involve a series of questions put to the student.
My biggest request, if you choose to work with me, is for no one to ever say that the student is not a math person! I believe that everyone is a math person, you just need it explained to you in a way that makes sense in your brain. I can do that for you, and the more time I spend discussing math with you, the better I'll know how your brain thinks about math.
