"I have been teaching elementary and middle school for the past 20 years, and I have taught martial arts for 10 years as well. I have taught all subjects from kindergarten to 8th grade math! I went to Penn State University for my K-6 teaching degree, and Lehigh University for my Master's in Educational Leadership. I am also a second degree black belt, and I love teaching and making learning fun and engaging!

I love teaching all subjects, but math would be my specialty!

For the past 12 years I have been teaching middle school math, where I worked with students on topics like using operations with decimals/fractions, algebra, ratios, geometry, measurement, and data & statistics. I can help your student develop strong study habits, get better grades, and also make real world connections to the topics being taught!

I have a degree in Elementary Education, as well as my certification in Mid Level Mathematics - 7th to 9th grade. I make math fun and interesting because I try to connect the lessons I teach to the real world. I find out what my students are interested in and use that to guide my instruction. I enjoy showing students who find math confusing or stressful that it can be done!

I have been a taking karate for 15 years, and I am a second degree black belt. Our school had a mix of styles, ranging from Tae Kwon Do, Shorin Ryu, Kung Fu, Tai Chi, Jiu Jitsu, and Boxing. Once I earned my black belt I taught twice a week for about 8 years. If you would be interested in taking online or in person classes, we would start with basic techniques like blocks, punches, kicks, stances, and go from there!" less...
