Simple And Logical Math Tutoring
About
I have a passion for education as I have been teaching for 6 years at a Middle School and High School level in East Orange NJ and Rahway NJ. I have a Bachelors degree in both History and Mathematics, a Masters Degree in Human Resource Management and a Degree in Mathematics Education. I am energetic and like to keep my classroom environment relaxed, but demand the very best from each one of my students. I teach with logic and simplicity and truly believe that every student is capable of greatness in Math. I am flexible and available by phone and email outside of scheduling hours 7 days a week with no extra charge if assistance is needed. I will give my students 100% effort and will never give up on achieving their potential success.
It is a challenge each day to teach and tutor and I wake up daily prepared for that challenge. Teaching requires creativity in that one needs to adjust their techniques to adhere to the individual types of student learning. I have the ability to do this and love to help students discover potential that they may not have known they have. I believe that all students have this potential and I love bringing it out and watching them succeed.
