About
I have a decade of experience in tutoring math to middle and high school students. My students always appreciate my comprehensive knowledge of their math subjects, my eagerness to help them learn in a way that will stick with them, and my understanding of the challenges of learning math.
Feel free to reach out so that I can help you or your student succeed in their math course!
I sincerely enjoy those moments when things "click" for my students, and their confusion and stress turn into understanding and confidence! That is the experience I strive to provide for my students each time we meet.

Frequently asked questions
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Before I was a tutor, I was a hard-working student. I graduated from Plano Senior High School, ranked 8th out of the approximately 1200 students in my class. I also received a perfect score on the PSAT exam, and near perfect scores on the SAT and ACT. I later graduated Magna Cum Laude from The University of Texas at Dallas.
I have been working as a tutor in the DFW area for over a decade. I first worked as a tutor for the Plano ISD AVID program. I later worked independently as an in-home tutor and then at a tutoring center. My specialty is math, especially middle and high school math courses and SAT/ACT test prep.
I am new to this online platform, but I am excited to start meeting students here and to help you overcome any hurdles in your math education!
Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.
I charge around 50 dollars per hour (varies based on the subject matter), and sessions last 1 hour (unless a longer or shorter session is requested beforehand). This rate reflects my decade of experience as a math tutor in DFW and my comprehensive knowledge of the math subjects listed on my profile.
How did you get started teaching?
My first part-time job after high school was as a tutor for my old school district. I'd always been a very high-performing student, but I realized in that job that I also had a knack for conveying my knowledge to others. Since then, I've worked with countless students, focusing my instruction on middle and high school math and SAT/ACT test prep. In the process, I've learned to help students feel good about the learning process and empower them to keep tackling mathematics.
