Teacher expertise and credentials

Michigan Teaching Certificate in Mathematics

Hello, I am happy to welcsome new students to my classes!  I am certified to teach Mathematics for grades 7 -12 and have over 20 years experience teaching  Algebra, Geometry, 
Algebra ll and pre-calculus. 
  Throughout my career teaching in Michigan's public schools, my students often said that I made math "much easier to understand," which is a great compliment!
   My philosophy behind teaching is that the more fun and relevant the lessons are, the more kids relate to it and want to learn more. Math can be fun when it is applied to situations in our lives. My desire to help students drives me to continue improving lessons each day!
     The things I love to do in my free time include: spending time with family, traveling, and doing just about anything with my adorable dog, Echo. I love to meet new people and help kids, so this is the perfect job for me!
