"I have been a math teacher in public schools since August 2005 with experience teaching algebra I, algebra II, geometry, and 6th grade math. I have had student success on state-administered tests (80%-plus passing on STAAR/EOC for math). I enjoy making puzzle-type games for my lessons to help improve my students' thinking skills and using the technology provided to enhance these lessons.

I have tutored math in some capacity since I was about 13 years old. Throughout the years, I have helped students ranging from 4th grade math to college statistics. I feel that one-on-one tutoring helps build the confidence of the student as I am willing to break down the concept needed to be learned as much as possible. Also, I like to check for understanding during each session, whether it is through a small assessment near the end of the session or just a quick question while we are going through a lesson. I love finding out some of the interests of the student because then I can incorporate it into a problem that I can help you solve!

I am also available to assist in SAT prep, ACT prep, STAAR prep, and Microsoft Office programs.

During the regular school year, I normally tutor weekday evenings after 6:00 PM and Saturday mornings after 9:00 AM, but this can change if needed in cooperation with tutor and student. My availability increases during the summer. My posted hourly rate is ALWAYS negotiable.

I look forward to helping you (or your student) become more successful in your math endeavors!" less...
