"I am a local high school math teacher with over a decade of classroom and tutoring experience, currently teaching North Carolina Math 2 and Math 3. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Finance and a Master's of Education in Mathematics and bring private experience from working with industrial companies like United Rentals and PSI Control Solutions. My technical background helps me connect mathematical concepts to real-world applications, making lessons both engaging and practical.

My tutoring experience includes working with students one-on-one and in small groups across middle school, high school, and standardized test preparation settings. I co-authored the book How to Survive Middle School: Math published by Penguin Random House, which aims to help students understand foundational skills through real-life scenarios. I focus on building student confidence by meeting learners where they are, using tools like Desmos, IXL, and hands-on strategies tailored to different learning styles. Whether supporting struggling students or challenging gifted learners, I emphasize critical thinking and problem-solving strategies in a supportive and encouraging environment.

I’ve worked with a wide range of students—from sixth graders building pre-algebra skills to high schoolers preparing for the SAT and ACT. My goal is to help every student feel empowered to understand math deeply and succeed on their academic journey." less...
