"My teaching experience includes 10 years as a classroom math instructor at a large public middle school where I planned and taught full-year curriculums in 6th grade math (2-years) and 7th grade math (8-years) aligned to the national and state math standards. Since 2020, I have provided online math tutoring to elementary and middle school students and love helping families and students in a friendly relaxed and encouraging one-on-one environment. To date, I have assisted families with over 3,300 student-centered sessions.
I specialize in elementary and middle-grades students in their 5th grade math, 6th grade math, 7th grade math, 8th grade math, and pre-algebra years. I enjoy helping all my students grow whether they are struggling with basic foundation skills or need assistance with more advanced pre-algebra topics.
My sessions are tailored to each student’s needs. I am passionate about creating a supportive engaging environment to help each student discover their potential, build strong foundation skills, boost self-confidence, encourage growth and curiosity, and make complex concepts seem easy. I would love to help your child succeed! Feel free to contact me to discuss your needs.
Math in grades 5 through 8 are important academic years as students obtain proficiency in pre-algebra skills through a deeper understanding of the major math topics of arithmetic operations, number sense, ratios and proportional reasoning, algebraic expressions and equations, geometry, and statistics. Progression through these important middle-grades math years creates a strong foundation which is needed for success in Algebra-1, high school math, and other advanced coursework.
I have a Master of Arts in Teaching Degree with a Middle Grades (5 to 9) Math Certification. My undergraduate degree is a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration and Accounting Major. I was a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) and Accounting Manager in public accounting before becoming a mathematics instructor." less...
