About
I am a math teacher who has moved on from the classroom but is still passionate about the subject and looking to help students in their mathematical endeavors.
I enjoy working with students and helping them to understand the "why" in mathematics instead of having students attempt to memorize math facts. When students reach that understanding it is very rewarding to see and be a part of their AHA moment.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
If a student is seeking general tutoring or test prep tutoring I will generally start with a diagnostic test to determine the student's current areas of strength. Then will review weak areas to get the student up to speed. If a student is seeking help in a specific topic I will go straight in to explaining what is necessary for that topic and will review other concepts as necessary for the specific topic help was requested.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a certified secondary mathematics teacher in South Carolina. I have 11 years of experience in the classroom and have taught various subjects throughout my career (Algebra 1, Algebra 2, Geometry, Precalculus)
How did you get started teaching?
I very much enjoyed math and science classes in high school but saw that a good many of my friends struggled in those topics, especially in math. I also have many teachers in my family and wanted to have a way to help students understand and enjoy a topic that I found so fascinating.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with students of varying ability levels from those with special needs up to honors students.
