I have over a decade of experience tutoring mathematics for all age groups. I have ample experience tutoring neuro-diverse students. What makes me unique as a tutor is that I explain math concepts in different ways to reach the student where they are and to bridge knowledge gaps.

‍

Tutoring subjects:

My favorite subjects to teach are Algebra & Statistics. I also enjoy helping with essay writing since I worked as a freelance writer/editor/researcher & journalist for many years.

Ages I’ve worked with:

Elementary, Middle, High School, & College

My tutoring style:

I try to restate math concepts in different ways because different people need to hear different groupings of words to understand the concepts.

Success Story:

I once helped a high school senior pass her math end of course exam. She had already failed it twice, and only had one attempt left. After working together for a couple of months, she passed the exam and became the first person in her family to graduate high school!

Hobbies and Interests:

My hobbies include gardening, furniture refinishing, making trinkets out of polymer clay, writing poetry, & watching TV with my senior dog Rocky.
